The Desolution of Yugoslavia
"socialism is when IMF loan"
The history of Yugoslavia since 1945 embraces a period of rapid economic, political, and social modernization reflected in urban and industrial growth, improvements in literacy and economic well-being, changes in the traditional patriarchal family structure, moderation of ethnic hostilities, and integration into the international economy.
However, in dialectical fashion, it also embraces a period of economic decline and intense ethnic reaction. In a very real sense, the route to the collapse of the Yugoslav federation, like the collapse of the Soviet federation, was paved by the policy toward nationalities that each had pursued, but it was precipitated by involvement in the global economy.

Update from yesterday's post. I'm still compiling a list of resources on trans rights to send to my dad. I don't want to spend too much time on it given that there's a strong possibility he won't care, won't read it, or won't change his mind anyway. He is very stubborn, and you can lead a horse to water, etc.
However, I did manage to convince him to use the correct pronouns when referring to the trans person mentioned in the news article he was commenting on. It's not much, but I'll take a small victory where I can get one.
After it's done, you should post it here.
