The book delves into the multifaceted nature of Yugoslavism from its inception in 1918 to its disintegration in the 1990s, highlighting how the concept evolved over time and was interpreted differently by various leaders and social groups. It emphasizes the absence of a unified definition of "Yugoslav," which ultimately contributed to the failure of the Yugoslav state. Scholarly essays examine the interactions among the states and peoples of Yugoslavia, along with the influences of intellectuals, leaders, and both secular and religious institutions.
