{"product_id":"ethnic-times-dusan-kecmanovic-9780275974619","title":"Ethnic Times: Exploring Ethnonationalism in the Former Yugoslavia","description":"\u003cp\u003eKecmanovic deals with the phenomenon of ethnonationalism, both as a broad, worldwide concern and as a key ingredient to the struggles in the former Yugoslavia. As in the former Yugoslavia, the rise of ethnonationalistic sentiments and attitudes coincided with the transition from a state-and party-run affair to a new, post-communist type of government and society. Drawing upon his personal experiences in Sarajevo, Kecmanovic provides a unique view of the conflict. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn a style accessible to students and general readers, he traces the transformations of leading principles, value systems, behavioral patterns, and views of people in times of severe ethnic tensions. At times nearly novelistic, the book examines epidemic ethnonationalism and individual manifestations such as violence toward members of other groups, beliefs that ethnic differences are genetic, a need to aggrandize and even manufacture differences between communities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dusan Kecmanovic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0275974618\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780275974619\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Praeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.56d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2002 pg. 32","brand":"Dusan Kecmanovic","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44634225508607,"sku":"9780275974619","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_42dedf2d-2c4e-42d6-bda7-c5ca3fedd9c0.jpg?v=1703588199","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ethnic-times-dusan-kecmanovic-9780275974619","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
