The Kosovan War, 1998-99: Transformations of State, War and Genocide in the Global Revolution

Sociological Research Online, 1999, vol. 4, issue 2, 33-43

Abstract: This paper outlines an analysis of the Kosovan war of 1998-99 in the light of historical-sociological perspectives on the contemporary state and on war and genocide. It argues that Kosova poses new challenges which threaten to relegitimate war as a means of politics, after the earlier implication of total war with genocide, unless alternative forms of international intervention are developed.
