Items related to MacEdonia : Warlords and Rebels in the Balkans
A bloody rebellion by Albanian guerrillas demanding equal rights in Macedonia has killed and wounded thousands of people and led to fears that the crisis will embroil Kosovo, Albania, Bulgaria and Greece. International intervention brought an uneasy halt to the blood-letting last summer, but hardline Macedonian nationalists have blocked full implementation of the peace agreement and there are now fears that the National Liberation Army will renew its campaign, leading to more ethnic cleansing in the heart of Europe. Phillips covers the front line fighting as well as the behind-the-scenes diplomacy in Skopje and shows just how damaging the present conflict is for any hope of a lasting Balkan peace.

From the Inside Flap:
"This is a cogent, judicious, layman-friendly journalistic report on an important, woefully under-covered conflict. Phillips does well in capturing the complexity--political, moral, communal--of the various sides; it doesn’t oversimplify either the villainy of the villains or the virtues of the good guys."--Strobe Talbott, Brookings Institution
About the Author:
"This book is singularly free from bias, which is a great and rare blessing in works on the Balkans--the tendency to root for one side or other being the bane of far too many books on the region’s recent conflicts."--Marcus Tanner, former Balkans correspondent for The Independent
"John Phillips elucidates very clearly and objectively the complexities of the Macedonian war, with some fine eyewitness accounts of the chaos that overtook the landlocked southern Balkan republic. His book will be required reading for all diplomats, peacekeepers and future students of the conflict. Many laurel boughs."--James Pettifer, author of The New Macedonian Question
John Phillips has been a correspondent with The Times of London since 1992, covering Italy as well as the Croatian and Bosnian wars. Since 2000 he has worked as a Special Correspondent for The Times in the Balkans, reporting on the overthrow of Milosevic in Yugoslavia and the conflicts in Macedonia and Serbia.
