Chapter From Pericentricity towards Possibilism : IN Book: Yugoslavia and China

Abstract

This book explores the historical relationship between Yugoslavia and China, examining its features, significance, and reverberations today. Studying a wide array of state-to-state and society-to-society connections and interactions, it provides novel perspectives on Yugoslavia’s and China’s intertwined trajectories and relations. Drawing from a rich array of primary sources and multidisciplinary approaches, the contributors shed light on the key events, major developments, and important aspects of the Sino-Yugoslav relationship and analyse contemporary relations between China and the Yugoslav successor states. The volume offers a timely intervention in the global history of the Cold War, area studies of Southeast Europe and of China, and studies of socialist and post-socialist transformations.
