Crisis Management and the Media Prof Philip M. Taylor Lecture 6 – Crises in the Balkans, 1991-99

Crisis in the Balkans 1991-95: Bosnia and SFOR 1995: From the ‘safe havens’ to the Dayton Peace Agreement 1995-99: IFOR 1999: Kosovo Conflict Post Kosovo: KFOR

1991-95: Bosnia and SFOR ‘The death of Yugoslavia’ Three sided civil war (Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia) Media coverage: erratic, polarised, simplified – and anti-Serb! Clinton administration policy – to resist the shocking images (from Europe!) especially post Somalia: the journalism of attachment Markele market place and safe havens

The Road to Dayton Screbenice and the humiliation of the ‘safe havens’ policy Evidence suggests the CNN effect finally came to play in influencing air strikes Especially after the failure to intervene in Rwanda genocide Dayton establishes IFOR Record since 1995

The Road to Kosovo Serbia removes autonomy in 1998 KLA vs. MUP and VJ forces: legacy of Bosnia media coverage identifies Serbs as villains Serb ‘genocide’ mobilises media Media coverage mobilises politicians to launch a war of ‘guilty conscience’ for not acting against Serbs over Bosnia

Kosovo Conflict Illegal? ‘Humanitarian intervention’ above international law Media coverage characteristics - western (Jamie Shae at NATO) - Serb (bombing of RTS) The arrival of the internet

Is this democracy building? Rebuild of ‘civil society’ Restoration of ‘law and order’ With values comes cultural transmission Cultural diplomacy or cultural imperialism? Is this appropriate or realpolitik? What is behind this? Democracies don’t fight democracies; triumph of free market liberal capitalism at end of Cold War
