Ethno-religious mimicry in the war in Bosnia-Herzegovina

Marjan Smrke

pp. 27-43

Abstract

More than two hundred thousand people were killed, some four hundred thousand injured, and seventy thousand permanently disabled during the armed conflicts that attended the disintegration of Yugoslavia between 1991 and 1995; a further four million people were displaced or forced to flee into permanent exile. The woeful drama—the most violent scenes of which were played out in Bosnia-Herzegovina—is only belatedly receiving its epilogue, with the key persons accused of war crimes being brought before the Hague tribunal.
