The Great Serbia Project and the Subsequent Ethnic Cleansing and Gendercide in Yugoslavia: A Driving Force for NATO Humanitarian Intervention
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Abstract: The international community under international law formulates some norms and principles under which all members of the community should be governed and from which each and every member should behave and act accordingly. Some state actors aberrate those norms and principles, which some times attracts sanctions from the international society forum. The paper is a descriptive approach to analyzing the salient features of Yugoslavian crisis, ethnic cleansing and the different features of the two popular leaders (Tito and Milosevic) on how they tried to change the course of leadership in the political atmosphere of former Yugoslavia. The paper discovers that, apart from the natural existence of ethnic cleavages in Yugoslavia, Milosevic had exacerbated ethnic tension which engendered gendercide and the collapse of former Yugoslavia. The paper concludes that, humanitarian intervention made by NATO was a proper solution to the Bosnian war which deposed Milosevic and paved a room for the independence of all the federating units. The paper recommends strongly, the adoption of international law and UN resolution prior to intervention in any local or international conflicts, among other things. Keywords: greater-serbia; ethnic-cleansing; gendercide; humanitarian-intervention; Yugoslavia; NATO.
