Marko Attila Hoare is a British historian of the former Yugoslavia which he has been studying since 1993. In the summer of 1995, he acted as translator for the humanitarian aid convoy to the Bosnian town of Tuzla, organised by Workers' Aid for Bosnia, a movement of solidarity in support of the Bosnian people. He has degrees in History from Cambridge (UK) and Yale (USA). Marko's blog https://greatersurbiton.wordpress.com/

The history of Yugoslavia in WWII is complicated and in today's show Marko will run through the changing military and political situation. We will examine the Axis invasion in 1941 and look at it's connection with Operation Barbarossa. Who were the Chetniks and the Partisans and why did they go to war against each other? Why did the Allies switch their support from the Chetniks to the Partisans. How important was Yugoslav resistance to Axis for the outcome of the war ?

Marko has written 4 books including: Genocide and Resistance in Hitler's Bosnia: The Partisans and the Chetniks, 1941-1943 by Marko Attila Hoare
