Yugoslavian Genocide - Causes...

Kelly Mass

The Yugoslavian Genocide is hard to explain. So many factors have contributed to the war, and eventually, the genocide in Bosnia, that many UN soldiers didn’t even know what to do with it. A lack of response, though, made the problem worse. And looking back on some of the cowardice and indifference, I’m sure many countries involved would like to go back in time and do it over. A combination of historical aspects such as the division of religion, the world wars, the Iron Curtain, and the fall of the Soviet Union were part of what led to a conflict that lasted for years in this sensitive region in Europe. 
Throughout the Bosnian War of 1992-- 1995, the Yugoslavian or Bosnian genocide describes either the Srebrenica massacre or the larger criminal activities against mankind and ethnic cleaning project performed by the Army of Republika Srpska (VRS) in areas controlled by the Army of Republika Srpska (VRS) More than 8,000 Bosniak (Bosnian Muslim) men and boys were killed in Srebrenica in the year 1995, while another 25,000-- 30,000 Bosniak people were by force expelled. 
Bosniaks and Bosnian Croats were targeted in ethnic cleaning in VRS-controlled areas. Extermination, illegal confinement, mass rape, sexual assault, abuse, ransack and damage of personal and public property, and inhumane treatment of people; targeting of politicians, intellectuals, and experts; illegal deportation and transfer of citizens; illegal appropriation and plunder of real and personal effects; damage of houses and services The activities met the requirements for "guilty acts" of genocide, and "certain physical criminals had the purpose to physically get rid of the safeguarded populations of Bosnian Muslims and Croats," according to the report. 
Let’s take a look at what happened, what caused it, and what it led to.

Two Tactics of Social-Democracy

Vladimir Lenin

Two Tactics of Social Democracy in the Democratic Revolution is one of the most important of Lenin's early writings. It was written in June and July 1905, while the Russian Revolution of 1905 was taking place. Lenin's preface poses these questions: "in educating and organizing the working class;...where should we place the main political emphasis in this work of education and organization? On the trade unions and legally existing associations, or on an insurrection, on the work of creating a revolutionary army and a revolutionary government?"The history of social democracy stretches back to the 19th-century socialist movement. It came to advocate an evolutionary and peaceful transition from capitalism to socialism, using established political processes, in contrast to the revolutionary socialist approach to transition associated with orthodox Marxism. In the early post-war era in Western Europe, social democratic parties rejected the Stalinist political and economic model then-current in the Soviet Union, committing themselves either to an alternative path to socialism or to a compromise between capitalism and socialism. In this period, social democrats embraced a mixed economy based on the predominance of private property, with only a minority of essential utilities and public services under public ownership. Social democrats promoted Keynesian economics, state interventionism, and the welfare state while placing less emphasis on the goal of replacing the capitalist system (factor markets, private property, and wage labor) with a qualitatively different socialist economic system.Produced by Macc KayProduction executive Avalon GiulianoICON Intern Eden Garret Giuliano©2021 Eden Garret Giuliano (P) 2021 Eden Garret GiulianoGeoffrey Giuliano is the author of over thirty internationally bestselling biographies, including the London Sunday Times bestseller 'Blackbird:
