Slaughterhouse

Více o knize

Focusing on the moral and diplomatic failures of Western powers during the Bosnia war, the book provides a harrowing account of genocide against Bosnian Muslims. David Rieff critiques the inaction of the United States, Western Europe, and the United Nations, framing the conflict as emblematic of the post-Cold War era's confusion. He argues that the lack of intervention not only allowed ethnic fascism to resurface in Europe but also marked a catastrophic moment in international relations, akin to the Vietnam War for the U.S.
