Clare College is very pleased to be marking the publication of Dr Josip Glaurdić’s forthcoming book, The Hour of Europe: Western Powers and the Breakup of Yugoslavia (Yale University Press), with a book launch and talk given by the author.

Incorporating declassified documents from the CIA , the administration of George H.W. Bush, and the British Foreign Office; evidence generated by The Hague Tribunal; and more than forty personal interviews with former diplomats and policy makers, Glaurdić’s book sheds light on the dramatic clash of opinions within the Western alliance regarding how to respond to the Yugoslav crisis. Glaurdić traces the origins of this clash in the Western powers’ different preferences regarding the roles of Germany, Eastern Europe, and foreign and security policy in the future of European integration. The Hour of Europe provides a fresh understanding of events that continue to influence the shape of the post–Cold War Balkans and the whole of Europe.

You can meet the author and buy a signed copy of his book at the event at the discounted price of £20.00.
