The Sudosteuropa-Gesellschaft (Southeast Europe Society or SOEG) was founded in 1940 to formulate wartime policy in Southeast Europe; its organizational life began and ended with the Third Reich. In his analysis of the creation, growth, and death of the SOEG, Dietrich Orlow focuses on the institutional behavior and power struggles of this microcosm of the Nazi system. Its story is illustrative of the nature of politics in all totalitarian societies and reveals the aims and the failure of Germany's wartime exploitation of the Balkan resources and the long-term economic designs for the Balkans after the Third Reich's expected victory.

The history of the Second World War in Yugoslavia was for a long time the preserve of the Communist regime led by Marshal Tito. It was written by those who had battled hard to come out on top of the many-sided war fought across the territory of that Balkan state after the Axis Powers had destroyed it in 1941, just before Hitler's invasion of the USSR. It was an ideological and ethnic war under occupation by rival enemy powers and armies, between many insurgents, armed bands and militias, for the survival of one group, for the elimination of another, for belief in this or that ideology, for a return to an imagined past within the Nazi New Order, or for the reconstruction of a new Yugoslavia on the side of the Allies. In fact, many wars were fought alongside, and under cover of, the Great War waged by the Allies against Hitler's New Order which, in Yugoslavia at least, turned out to be a "new disorder". Most surviving participants have since told their stories; most archival sources are now available. Pavlowitch uses them, as well as the works of historians in several languages, to understand what actually happened on the ground. He poses more questions than he provides answers, as he attempts a synoptic and chronological analysis of the confused yet interrelated struggles fought in 1941-5, during the short but tragic period of Hitler's failed "New Order", over the territory that was no longer the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and not yet the Federal Peoples' Republic of Yugoslavia, but that is now definitely "former Yugoslavia".

The failure to adequately respond on the part of the major Western superpowers to the atrocities in the Balkans constitutes a major moral and political scandal. In Genocide after Emotion Mestrovic and the contributors thoroughly interrogate the war, its media coverage and response in the West. The result is alarming, both for the progress of the war and for the condition of our society today: the authors argue that the West is suffering from a "postemotional" condition - we are beyond caring about anything anymore.

This slim volume, originally published soon after the Second World War, was, like others in the German Report series, drawn from official German military records captured and taken to the US for analysis. Once the Balkans had been occupied in early 1941, the Germans and their allies were soon faced with a guerrilla opposition which sucked more and more troops into the area simply to attempt to control the civilian population. Sandwiched between British and Allied operations in the Mediterranean and the campaign in Russia to the east, the Balkan conflict achieved a momentum of its own, and the Germans were never left to indulge in the relative peace that reigned elsewhere in the parts of Europe that they occupied. There is an analysis of the situation in the area after the German invasion was completed, together with comments on the rise of the partisan movements in both Yugoslavia and Greece. The Germans allies are also discussed, including the Italians, Bulgarians and Hungarians, together with comments on the puppet governments installed by the Nazis. The Germans undertook a succession of large-scale operations against resistance in the Balkans, especially against Tito s Yugoslav Communist Partisans, and these are treated in detail in the book. The situation after the withdrawal from the war of Italy in 1943 is treated as well. Much of the book looks at the actual guerrilla movements in Greece, Yugoslavia and Albania, and the operations against them in 1943 and 1944. The detail is supported by a series of maps showing especially Operations Gemsbock and Steinadler.

Balkan Caesar is the compelling, previously untold story of a small band of American soldiers of the OSS (Office of Strategic Services) who fought the Nazis behind enemy lines in World War II Albania. The story is based on fact. At the outbreak of the war, the OSS, the forerunner of the CIA, scours the United States for young men willing to return secretly to the countries of their European ancestors to help resistance fighters sabotage the Nazi war machine. In Boston they find a group of first generation Americans of Albanian descent who volunteer to join the OSS and help liberate Albania from the Nazi Occupation. The story centers around one of the men, Tom Stevens, a rugged, idealistic young Boston high school football star who is fluent in Albanian. Stevens tends bar at the Arch Street Tavern, a newspaperman's hangout, while he attends college at night. Stevens recruits fellow Bostonians - some of Albanian descent, others not - to join the OSS with him. One unlikely volunteer is handsome actor Sterling Hayden, who worked as a seaman on the Boston waterfront before he was discovered by Hollywood. Their assignment: gather intelligence useful to the OSS for its wartime - and post-war - needs, and to bond with Enver Hoxha, the handsome, charismatic, ruthless, Paris-educated Albanian Communist Partisan leader. This they do. Together, Stevens, Hayden, and their men make the dangerous nighttime crossing of Adriatic Sea from Allied-occupied Italy to join Hoxha's Partisans and help them fight the Nazis in the rugged mountains and seaside caves of southern Albania. Once on Albanian soil, Stevens learns that the Nazis are only part of the problem: Albania is in the midst of a complicated civil war in which the Communists are fighting with Albanian nationalists and royalists to determine who will control postwar Albania. Albanian alliances are murky and shifting: sometimes it is difficult to divine who is on whose side, and whom to trust. Hoxha and his lover, Tueta? Mehmet Shehu, Hoxha's brilliant military chief and potential rival? Lulu, the beautiful Albanian-American woman with whom Stevens falls in love? On top of all this, Stevens and his men find themselves thrust by their OSS masters into an even greater struggle that is emerging out of the rubble and chaos of the war and is soon to become known as the Cold War. Stevens is trained to follow orders, even lethal ones. But is he equipped to carry out an assignment that requires him to betray the trust of his new Albanian friends? The outcome of this extraordinary saga is to influence Albanian and Balkan history, and the lives of its protagonists, for decades to come.

Between 1939 and 1941, Britain had a terrible dilemma. She was keen to see Turkey, Bulgaria, Greece, Romania and Yugoslavia join the Allies against Nazi Germany, but the 1939 Molotov Ribbentrop Pact had changed everything: the Balkan countries were far more afraid of Stalin than of Hitler. Britain and France were also concerned about the Soviets giving so much oil to Germany: in 1940 Britain almost went to war with the USSR in an attack on the Caucasus. This book looks at how Britain tried to resolve these dilemmas and ultimately failed to do so.
