Impact of the 20th Century War on Democratic Serbia Today

Abstract

Serbia's 21st century security environment is based on the unsolved problems that arose before and after two Balkan wars, World War I, World War II, the Cold War, and the civil war in the former Yugoslavia. These problems are a result of the disagreement between communism and capitalism, totalitarianism and democracy, and conventional and nuclear war. If we add in terrorism, the proliferation of weapons for mass destruction, organized crime, and hybrid war, we see a VUCA environment in the fullest sense of the word -- all of which form the background for Serbia's national interests and strategic goals today.
