There may be differences between this version and the published version. You are advised to consult the publisher’s version if you wish to cite from it. http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/189346/ Deposited on: 1 July 2019 Enlighten – Research publications by members of the University of Glasgow http://eprints.gla.ac.uk 1 From the Cold War to the Kosovo War: Yugoslavia and the British Labour Party1 The protracted and violent collapse of Yugoslavia was one of the profound international crises following the end of the Cold War. The inability of the United Nations to stop the bloodshed, the retreat of Russian power alongside the failure of the European powers to reach a common approach, and the ultimate deployment of US-led NATO forces to settle the Bosnian War and later to conduct the Kosovo War exposed the unlikelihood of what George H.W. Bush had hailed as a ‘new world order’ based on collective security. The wars of succession in the former Yugoslavia in fact provided the spring-board for a different vision of global security under American hegemony, which would characterise in particular George W. Bush’s project to reshape global affairs in the new millennium (Rees, 2006, esp. pp. 34-35). It is unsurprising in this context that scholarly production relating to the collapse of Yugoslavia and its importance for international relations has been immense (for a recent short overview: Baker 2015).

This year, that mailing will be combined with the vote for Leader and Deputy Leader. The vote at the July Party meeting will be to decide which members we as local constituency members would like to see on the ballot. Each Constituency is entitled to nominate members to be on these ballots. Over the last 2 months or so, members from all over the South East or elsewhere have written to con stituency partie s asking for nominations. Detai ls of all of those req uests received by the Secretary are contained in the attached document, ordered according to the places they are looking to fill. There is no vote this year for constituency members of the National Executive Committee. Constituencies in the South East Region have four seats on the National Policy Forum, plus one Youth seat. Our own member Simeon Elliott is seeking nomination to one of the four places. Every candidate has to be nominat ed by their own con stituency to be included on the ballot, so there will be a specif ic vote for Kemptown members to decide whether he will be nominated.

Perhaps I won’t see the abolition of all nuclear weapons before I depart but I very much want the work we are all engaged in to continue — despite my absence! Campaigning for a nuclear weapons-free world does not produce much income. But I will make sure that there will be a slice of whatever I leave in my Will for CND. And I very much hope you will consider doing the same. Doing so could help ensure the longevity of CND, transform the campaign, and raise greater public awareness. I doubt if you need much persuading. Do your best!
