Chronology of Events
Stipe Mesić was the President of the Republic of Croatia. He has been a leading politician since the 1980s. He was the last president of Croatia as one of the Yugoslav republics, and in this capacity served as member, later chairman of the federal Presidium of Yugoslavia in 1990–1991. After years of relative political passivity, Mesić was elected independent Croatia’s second president in 2000, following the death of former President Franjo Tuđman.
"Mesic's memoirs provide a valuable insider's story of the collapse
of the SFRY. The amount of detail, the first-hand account of events
and the portrayal of the key personalities involved in the
political struggles of the time make this an essential contribution
to understanding how and why the SFRY disintegrated in 1991."
