I would really recommended "Thinking about Yugoslavia" which is an entire book on all the various debates about the Yugo break-up and all the wars, super easy to read and contains a massive amount of sources and recommended reading & you get to learn about all the disagreements.

Additionally, some of these are scholarly publications and if you cannot access it but do want to do research...I've just contacted scholars in the past via email and they've shared their work for free. Most will always send you a pdf.

& finally...primary sources on the Bosnian genocide are super important and so are secondary sources. There isn't any book I could recommend that is entirely comprehensive from beginning to end...so pls try & read from various authors & various books.

Oh and also forgot to add the amazing and phenomenal Edina Becirovic's "Genocide on the Drina River". This is mandatory reading. Edina changed Bosnian Genocide scholarship for the better with it.

Some other scholars you can follow and whose work/writing that I am a huge fan of are people like @hikmet_karcic @KarcicHamza @adnanmahmutovic @fbieber @EricGordy @___adn @suboticjelena @alexcruik

& here is an entire list of Balkan women scholars too:

If you don't like reading...then I heartily recommend the podcast "Untold Killing" that we did in partnership with @messageheard. Not just cause I worked on it but it really is a superb resource and contains scholarly as well as personal sources.

If documentaries are more your thing then:

1. Death of Yugoslavia is long and good for history nerd.
2. Fog of Srebrenica is heart wrenching and personal

& films like "Quo Vadis, Aida", "Halima's Path, "Grbavica", "As if I'm not there", "No Man's Land", "Cirkus Columbia".

Additionally both @SrebrenicaMC and @SrebrenicaUK have a plethora of valuable resources on their websites too. Personal stories, war-time evidence such as military orders, videos and audios, even resources for school-age children. Check them out.

I'll keep the thread updated as more resources come to mind but don't get overwhelmed please...I am simply giving you all options so you can figure out what sources work best for you! I know it's a lot! & if you have any questions...always feel free to shoot me a DM!
