The Yugoslavia effect: The coming disintegration of the United Kingdom
Manage episode 274732194 series 2626972
This week we look at the parallel of the collapse of Yugoslavia and the current fracturing of the United Kingdom. In the space of 4 years a long established Union of 6 Republics (Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia, Slovenia, Montenegro, and Macedonia) collapsed into civil war, ethnic cleansing and genocide. Economic inequality and differing political cultures have driven the UK apart over the last 15 years with the Brexit and Scottish Independence Referendums signalling the coming disintegration of the Union. Could the United Kingdom go the same way as Yugoslavia?
