Re: The Balkan Wars/Conflicts of the 1990s - Best Works for Beginners
Hi Jason,
I would echo what Sandra said, if that's your focus. I'd also recommend a newly published (2022) book by Iva Vukušić, Serbian Paramilitaries and the Breakup of Yugoslavia: State Connections and Patterns of Violence published by Routledge. It's as it says on the tin -- a study of the connections between the Serbian (i.e., Yugoslav) state and paramilitaries during the conflict. In my opinion, and as an expert on Balkan paramilitaries, the topic of the Yugoslav wars cannot be understood without this dimension.
All the very best of luck,
Stevan

Re: Golden on Wellerstein, 'Restricted Data: The History of Nuclear Secrecy in the United States'
This looks like an interesting book on a topic about which I know a thing or two, having worked for nine years in the DOE Office of Classification.
