Sell focuses on the life and career of Milosevic  from the perspective of both a diplomatic insider intimately familiar with the region and a scholar who has researched all the available English and Serbo-Croatian sources. Sell spent much of his diplomatic career in Eastern Europe and Russia  including eight years in Yugoslavia between 1974 and 2000  and witnessed the events that contributed to the dissolution and ultimate destruction of Yugoslavia. In Slobodan Milosevic and the Destruction of Yugoslavia he provides first-hand observations of Milosevic from the heady days of his rise to power and  later  in the endgame of the Bosnian war  including the Dayton Peace Conference. Drawing on a wide range of published material as well as interviews with Yugoslav and foreign participants  Sell covers such areas as Milosevics relationship to the military  his responsibility for war crimes  his methods of persuasion and negotiation  and his notoriously explosive personality.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45648168157237,"sku":"ByrdShop_0822328550","price":34.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780822328551.jpg?v=1781711295","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/slobodan-milosevic-and-the-destruction-of-yugoslavia-9780822328551","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
