 <\/p>\n

The Balkans, in particular the turbulent ex-Yugoslav territory, have been among the most important world regions in Noam Chomsky\u2019s political reflections and activism for decades. His articles, public talks, and correspondence have provided a critical voice on political and social issues crucial not only to the region but the entire international community, including “humanitarian intervention,” the relevance of international law in today\u2019s politics, media manipulations, and economic crisis as a means of political control.<\/p>\n

This volume provides a comprehensive survey of virtually all of Chomsky\u2019s texts and public talks that focus on the region of the former Yugoslavia, from the 1970s to the present. With numerous articles and interviews, this collection presents a wealth of materials appearing in book form for the first time along with reflections on events twenty-five years after the official end of communist Yugoslavia and the beginning of the war in Bosnia. The book opens with a personal and wide-ranging preface by Andrej Gruba\u010di\u0107 that affirms the ongoing importance of Yugoslav history and identity, providing a context for understanding Yugoslavia as an experiment in self-management, antifascism, and mutlethnic coexistence.<\/p>\n

\n\u2014New Statesman<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWith relentless logic, Chomsky bids us to listen closely to what our leaders tell us\u2014and to discern what they are leaving out. . . . Agree with him or not, we lose out by not listening.\u201d
