Road to War, A Chronology 1988-1999

and ensuing conflict.

Kosovo and the Challenge
of Humanitarian Intervention: Selective Indignation, Collective Intervention,
and International Citizenship.
The Kosovo conflict has the potential to redraw the landscape of international
politics, with significant ramifications for the UN, major powers and

This paper offers a brief guide to the leading indigenous political organisations
and personalities in Kosovo/Kosova.
Waiting
for UNMIK: Local Administration in Kosovo
18 October 1999
More than four months have passed since the start of the deployment of
the United Nations in Kosovo. While first efforts were concentrated on
the creation of a secure environment and the distribution of humanitarian
aid, Civil Administration, the pillar of UNMIK which plays the role of
a government, has been slow in reaching the local level.
Violence
in Kosovo: Who is killing whom?
2 November 1999
The agreement signed on 20 September between the Kosovo Liberation Army
(KLA) and KFOR commanders transformed the KLA into a 5,000-strong, nominally
multiethnic civilian force - the Kosovo Protection Corps (KPC). This move
is unlikely to halt the rising tide of violence and crime in Kosovo, or
to stem the continued exodus of the province's few remaining non-Albanians;
stopping the violence in Kosovo will require much more.
Trepca:
Making Sense of the Labyrinth
26 November 1999
The enterprise known as Trepca1is a sprawling conglomerate of some 40
mines and factories, located mostly in Kosovo but also in other locations
in Serbia and Montenegro. Its activities include chemical processing and
production of goods as varied as batteries and paint. But the heart of
its operations, and the source of most of its raw material, is the vast
mining complex to the east of Mitrovicë/a in the north of Kosovo, famous
since Roman times. This report examines the current position of the mines,
together with the associated smelting complex at nearby Zvecan.
Starting
from Scratch in Kosovo: Honeymoon is over
10 December 1999
After an unprecedented, multilateral military intervention in Kosovo succeeded
in expelling Serb forces and enabling the return home of more than a million
displaced persons, the international community embarked on the ambitious,
long-term project of securing, rebuilding, and establishing the rule of
law in Kosovo, while setting the territory on the path to self-governance.
Visionary promises were made to the people of Kosovo......
