Recently there has been a lot of discussion regarding the situation in former Yugoslavia. Dr. Max Reidlsperger of the History department recently gave an excellent lecture on the history of the region and the background to the current situation. If y ou are interested in knowing more, I suggest you click here for that information: lecture, map.
I have recently come across a web page with a timeline of life, death
and publication dates for a number of thinkers and sociologists over the
last 400 years. It also includes information on the published works
and their main ideas. Check it out: http://www.ac.wwu.edu/~stephan/timeline.html.
