Summary
"This book examines the politics and international relations of the Balkans during a decade of mounting external involvement in its affairs. Tom Gallagher asks what evidence there is that lessons have been learned and applied as the transatlantic engagement with Balkan problems enters its second decade. His book identifies new problems: organised crime, demographic crises of different kinds and the collapse of a strong employment base."--BOOK JACKET
