The 1991 dissolution of Yugoslavia and the subsequent wars between expansionist nationalisms were, and still are, the topic of many scholarly works. From 1991 on, numerous regional experts, government advisers, and former diplomats, as well as professional historians, sociologists, and political scientists all tried to make sense of the horrible breakup of the South Slav state. To speak about the events that occurred in the former Yugoslavia in the 1990s, one cannot go on without referring to books by authors such as Susan Woodward, Noel Malcolm, Tim Judah, James Gow, John Fine, Robert Donia, and Misha Glenny to mention but the most prominent. These authors, as well as many others, tried to decipher the code of interethnic and interreligious animosities among the peoples of the former Yugoslavia, and to understand the political and ideological backgrounds of manipulated passions of ethnic nationalism as it awakened in the last decades of the twentieth century. The old stereotypes of Balkan tribal passions and bloodthirsty highlanders became reinforced once again.
