Annual Fuel Costs ANNUAL FUEL CHART For 1986 llllodd You Icosts are continually changing and vary considerably by area. Based an 15,000 Mlkr par Yur following chart enables you to estimate annual costs using fuel prices in your area. These costs are based on 15,000 miles of driving per year. The annual fuel cost displayed on the fuel epmcmy label of * 1986 cars is based on 15,000 miles of driving and costs of 51-35 per. gallon for premium unleaded gasoline, or $125 per gallon for regular unleaded gasoline, or $120 per gallon for diesel fuel'. It is suggested that you us8 the chart to figure your costs by first calculating the . cost for the estimated highway rnpg for your car Pnd then the cost for the estimated city mpg. Multiply each value by the percent of your total driving that is done in the city and tha percent that Is done on the highway and add the two val~toQether to yield the total cost. For example, for someone who did 80 percent city driving and 20 percent highway drivmg and who was considering purchasinga car which was listed as achieving 35 rnpg for highway driving and 21 mpg for city driving, the calculation would appear as: city driving rnpg .... ........... .. ...... ... $892 and highway Wing rnpg ....... ....... ..... .. $536, assuming gasdine cost $1.25 per gallon. Then. ($892 x 0.8) +(5536x 0.2)=S21, the total annual cost for fuel. The reader is cautioned that simply averaging the rnpg for city and highway driving and then looking up a single value in the table will yield an incorrect answer. 'Because of the constant changes in the pice of gdi,fuel economy labels may use different values in estimating the annual fuel cost. > For those who purchase gasoline by the liter, 9765 liters equals one gallon.

  • Evanthis Hatzivassiliou Greek-Yugoslav Relations Is A
    Evanthis Hatzivassiliou From Adversity to Alliance: Greece, Yugoslavia and Balkan Strategy, 1944-1959 Greek-Yugoslav relations is a subject of pivotal importance for understanding the shaping of twentieth century Balkan balances. In the post-war period this relationship became even more interesting: Greece and Yugoslavia had radically different political, economic and social systems; they were bitterly divided in 1944-1948, but then they norma­ lized relations, participated in a Balkan alliance together with Turkey, and when this alliance broke down, they continued their co-operation on a bilateral basis. In this paper it will be argued that the factor which divi­ ded Greece and Yugoslavia in 1944-1948 was not ideology, but strate­ gy; and it was strategy that brought them closer after Tito’s split with Stalin. After 1948 both countries shaped their policy on the basis of a mild realism, and their relationship was dominated by their perception of their respective national interests. In this paper, emphasis will be placed on Greek perceptions and assessments, but Yugoslav views will also be mentioned. I During the inter-war period Greece’s major problem with Yugo­ slavia derived from the latter’s great size: Belgrade was a powerful neighbour, capable of pressing Athens and of attracting support from the great powers, mainly France. At that time Greece was afraid of Yugo­ slavia’s hegemonist tendencies in the Balkans, as well as of its desire to pose as the protector of the Slav-speaking minority of Greece and as a suitor for the port of Thessaloniki. It was clear that, facing Bulgarian revisionism, it would be impossible for Athens to resist pressures from both its northern neighbours; this was why the possibility of a Bulgarian- Yugoslav rapprochement was the nightmare scenario of the Athens policy-makers'.

  • The Destruction of Yugoslavia
    Fordham International Law Journal Volume 19, Issue 2 1995 Article 18 The Destruction of Yugoslavia Svetozar Stojanovic∗ ∗ Copyright c 1995 by the authors. Fordham International Law Journal is produced by The Berke- ley Electronic Press (bepress). http://ir.lawnet.fordham.edu/ilj The Destruction of Yugoslavia Svetozar Stojanovic Abstract If my statement about the first Yugoslavia being in many ways a non-synchronized and con- tradictory state is correct, what then can be said about the second Yugoslavia that endeavored, by keeping silent, to fill in the fatal fissure opened in Jasenovac and other places of annihilation of Serbs in the so-called Independent State of Croatia during the Second World War? For that reason, the former intermediator of the “international community” in Yugoslav conflicts, Lord Carrington, has repeatedly stated that with its new Constitution, Croatia rekindled the conflict with the Serbs. The essay will begin by discussing discuss the paralization to the breaking-up of the state, before moving to a discussion of the wars between secessionists and antisecessionists. We will also ex- amine the role of the Yugoslav Army, and Western triumphalism regarding the Yugoslav tragedy. THE DESTRUCTION OF YUGOSLAVIA Svetozar Stojanovic* I. A NON-SYNCHRONIZED AND CONTRADICTORY STATE From its formation in 1918, Yugoslavia was a non-synchronized and contradictory state. It was created mainly by Serbia and Mon- tenegro, countries that were victors in the First World War. The Serbian nation's human and material sacrifice invested in Yugo- slavia was unparalleled. Serbs were convinced that they could best solve their national question in a broader Southern Slav framework.

  • Legal Implications of NATO's Armed Intervention in Kosovo
    XJ[II Legal Implications of NATO's Armed Intervention in Kosovo Ved P. Nanda HE MILITARY INTERVENTION by the nineteen,member North Atlantic T Treaty Organization (NATO) in Kosovo, a province of Serbia in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, was the first ofits kind undertaken by the alli, ance. Under the 1949 North Atlantic Treaty,l NATO was formed as are, gional security organization. With its mission to act in a defensive capacity to protect its members from external aggression, under the treaty the parties spe, cifically agreed that an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all and consequently ... if such an armed attack occurs, each of them, in exercise of the right of individual or collective self,defense recognized by Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, will assist the Party or Parties so attacked by taking forthwith, individually and in concert with the other Parties, such action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force, to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area.2 Thus, the intervention was arguably beyond NATO's intended mission. Equally important, by unilaterally intervening in Kosovo, NATO bypassed the United Nations. Its use of force clearly failed the test of strict compliance with Legal Implications of NATO's Armed Intervention in Kosovo the constraints of the UN Charter,3 for it did not seek prior authorization of the Security Council to use force. Although the UN eventually assumed an impor~ tant role in shaping the future of Kosovo, it was invited to perform that task only after the end of the conflict.4 I concede that it is too early to write a definitive commentary on the legal implications of this intervention.

    bellamy [22.5].jkt 21/8/03 4:43 pm Page 1 Europeinchange E K T C The formation of Croatian national identity ✭ This volume assesses the formation of Croatian national identity in the 1990s. It develops a novel framework that calls both primordialist and modernist approaches to nationalism and national identity into question before applying that framework to Croatia. In doing so it not only provides a new way of thinking about how national identity is formed and why it is so important but also closely examines 1990s Croatia in a unique way. An explanation of how Croatian national identity was formed in an abstract way by a historical narrative that traces centuries of yearning for a national state is given. The book goes on to show how the government, opposition parties, dissident intellectuals and diaspora change change groups offered alternative accounts of this narrative in order to The formation legitimise contemporary political programmes based on different visions of national identity. It then looks at how these debates were in manifested in social activities as diverse as football and religion, in of Croatian economics and language. ✭ This volume marks an important contribution to both the way we national identity bellamy study nationalism and national identity and our understanding of post-Yugoslav politics and society.

  • Yugoslav Foreign Policy: Continuity and Changes
    YUGOSLAV FOREIGN POLICY: CONTINUITY AND CHANGES PREDRAG SIMIC Predrag Simic is the Director of the Institute of International Politics and Economics, Belgrade. INTRODUCTION Changes in Yugoslav foreign policy began towards the end of the eighties under the influence of numerous external and internal factors which called for a profound revision of the country’s foreign policy agenda in order to meet the new realities in Europe and the world. Yugoslavia emerged from World War II as a socialist country, but after conflict with the Soviet Union in 1948, it solicited the support of the West, and, finally, in the mid-fifties, it found a comfortable position as a strategic buffer between the East and West, whilst at the beginning of the sixties she likewise became one of the leading countries of the Non-Aligned Movement. The end of the Cold War changed this international position: the changes in Eastern Europe made her lose her position as a strategic buffer and marginalized the significance of the Non-Aligned Movement in international relations. The drastic internal crisis that incited centrifugal aspirations among the Yugoslav republics likewise had its effect, necessitating an immediate revision of her foreign policy towards European integration. Yugoslavia thus cautiously began approaching the European Community, but this process was suddenly shattered when civil war broke out in June 1991 and soon resulted in the secession of four Yugoslav republics and the creation of a new Federal Republic of Yugoslav (FRY) comprised only of Serbia and Montenegro. The events in Slovenia, Croatia (the Krayina) and Bosnia and the international sanctions imposed by the UN Security Council in May 1992 on the new Yugoslavia, condemning her for alleged interference in the war in Bosnia, likewise dictated changes in her foreign political agenda.
