Remember and Forgive: Reconciliation in the Former Yugoslavia (Principal Investigator)
This project is devoted to the issue of reconciliation in the former Yugoslavia. The first stage focuses on collecting (recording) stories of the Croatian prisoners of war in Montenegro during the 1991-2 operations of the Yugoslav Army (VJ) along the south-eastern region of the Croatian coast. The second stage consists of locating, examining, copying (preserving), and analyzing official policy papers and government documents in Montenegro such as minutes from the session of the Montenegrin Parliament during 1990 and 1992, and sessions of the Montenegrin government during the same period as well as specific policy papers issued by the government to the Ministry of Interior.
