The main topic for the upcoming issue is ‘Yugoslavia’.

In line with the interdisciplinary character of our journal we encourage potential authors to interpret the main topic broadly and to submit articles discussing different historical, political, economic, sociological, cultural and artistic aspects of Yugoslavia’s life and legacy. In particular we encourage contributions that seek to overcome the usual practice of treating Yugoslavia as a special case. Instead Yugoslav experience can be integrated into broader temporal or spatial comparisons, or into broader theoretical frameworks. From the gunshot fired in Sarajevo by a young Yugoslav nationalist to the Berlin Wall that came tumbling down on the heads of the Yugoslavs, Yugoslavia has been intimately linked to the short 20th century and offers an interesting mirror into many of its facets. A country born when the principle of national self-determination defeated the remaining vestiges of feudal order, a semi-peripheral society semi-successfully catching up with modernity through liberal democracy, inter-war authoritarianism, communist revolution, market socialist evolution and abortive democratization. A mosaic of ethnicities and religions twice reduced to civil wars by the congruence of domestic and international factors. An exercise in nation-building and federalism, its constituent parts repeatedly bogged down in the economic disputes between the rich north and poor south. Specter of Yugoslavism is in many ways still haunting its successor statelets, and quite possibly also haunting the broader European project, or even the bleak future of countries like Syria currently riven by civil wars often interpreted through the black and white lenses of ethnicity. Despite the breadth of literature on Yugoslavia, this comparative and theoretical relevance of Yugoslav experience still offer a relatively unexplored opportunity to gain new insights and creatively reconsider the existing theories.
