Tim Judah "Kosovo What Everyone Needs to Know"

On February 17, 2008, Kosovo declared its independence, becoming the seventh state to emerge from the break-up of the former Yugoslavia. A tiny country of just two million people, 90% of whom are ethnic Albanians, Kosovo is central-geographically, historically, and politically-to the future of the Western Balkans and, in turn, its potential future within the European Union. But the fate of both Kosovo, condemned by Serbian leaders as a "fake state" and the region as a whole, remains uncertain.

In Kosovo: What Everyone Needs to Know, Tim Judah provides a straight-forward guide to the complicated place that is Kosovo. Judah, who has spent years covering the region, offers succinct, penetrating answers to a wide range of questions: Why is Kosovo important? Who are the Albanians? Who are the Serbs? Why is Kosovo so important to Serbs? What role does Kosovo play in the region and in the world? Judah reveals how things stand now and presents the history and geopolitical dynamics that have led to it. The most important of these is the question of the left to self-determination, invoked by the Kosovo Albanians, as opposed to left of territorial integrity invoked by the Serbs. For many Serbs, Kosovo's declaration of independence and subsequent recognition has been traumatic, a savage blow to national pride. Albanians, on the other hand, believe their independence rights an historical wrong: the Serbian conquest (Serbs say "liberation") of Kosovo in 1912.

For anyone wishing to understand both the history and possible future of Kosovo at this pivotal moment in its history, this book offers a wealth of insight and information in a uniquely accessible format.

Kosovo IS fake state. Fact.

Thanks.

If you divide a universally recognised country (Yougoslavia) based on "the left of self determination" neglecting "territorial integrity of states recognised by the UN"....You should then divide the so called "Bosnia" which NEVER was a state all along history and give the "Bosnian Serbs" the left to their own state.

It all started as an american idea to give something to Islamic OIL states...but these responded on the 11 september...The stupid US politicians Clinton,Albright,Briginsky and the other criminals discovered too late that their plan failed
