Hardcover. Etat : Fair. Aus einer Bibliothek ausgesondert/ Stempel; Leichte Anmerkungen / Beschriftungen. Given that Dr Mira Markovic is the wife of Serbian president Slobodan Milosevic, perhaps one could have expected from this book a diatribe against the West, a propagandistic tool of Serbian nationalism. If such is looked for, it is not to be found here. For an interpretation of why the multifaceted ethnic and religious Federal Republic of Yugoslavia has broken down into a strife which has baffled Europe and the world -- for this reason alone, Answer is worth reading.Mira Markovic laments that the southern Slavic peoples had much more in common, historically and culturally, than that which divides them. She laments the passing of Serbia into nationalism and chauvinism, greed and egoism as opposed to socialism and altruism. She is varying in her levels of criticism of Serbia and the Serbian establishment -- but she is at all times critical.This is a book of the Left, and also a critique of the same. With the Left, worldwide, in disarray it is refreshing to read such an eloquent advocate of left-wing ideas and socialism. Those of the old, humane, humanitarian, utopian, justice-selling Left will find much to reflect on, much to appreciate, much to agree on, and maybe even a cause for hope. Answer has been published previously in Russian, Bulgarian, Ukrainian, Chinese, Czech, and Italian translation. N° de réf. du vendeur 25657660-c817-4c65-8534-1315006c93d7
