Kosova question and internacional diplomaci (1991-1999). Predicting the conflict

Summary/Abstract: The arrangements offered by international community as solutions to Yugoslav dissolution process did significantly affect the development of the Kosovo/a conflict. These policies failed to produce consensus between the parties in conflict, instead, as the paper demonstrate, they played the role of a catalyst in the initiation of the conflict. This paper, by offering a detailed reconstruction of the process by which the international community tried to settle the Kosova case, demonstrates how the dynamics of the conflict interacted dynamically with international community attitude and policies towards the case. The paper discusses the attitude and policies of international community toward the Kosova case underlining its attachment to traditional prerequisites of international order instead of inherited causes of conflict. There are three important events that underline the interference of international community in the case of Kosova before the war: the Conference on Yugoslavia that followed up the creation of the Badinter committee, the Dayton Agreement and the Rambouillet Talks. These events are explained in details in three separate sections since they have immediate implications for the situation in Kosova and consequently for the development of the conflict. The analysis follow the logic of first, discuss the contribution of existing normative framework to models of international community behavior and their effects in the case of Kosova conflict following with the reaction of the conflicting parties towards offered arrangements. Both moments are assumed to be of importance in providing a larger picture in the understanding of the Kosova conflict outgrowth.
