| Summary / Abstract (Note) | THE "MANAGEABLE CHAOS" came to the Balkans twenty years ago in the form of ethnoconfessional conflicts and wars, and continued fragmentation of what had been Yugoslavia not so long before. The peninsula was turned into a testing ground of regime change technologies known as color revolutions with the absolute majority of its population living in poverty and the military and political presence of third forces ensured by the EU and UN peacekeepers and NATO. This is a natural outcome of the development of the world system of capitalism. Why did the Balkans become a zone of instability/chaos and permanent crisis? The answer to this question is obvious. |
