An article in New American magazine (3/15/99) calls Kosovo a
"Serbian province" -- not a "Yugoslavian province." The
article goes on: "Serbs regard the province to be the
spiritual home of Serbian nationalism" -- not "Yugoslavian
nationalism."
More: "Many within the ethnic Albanian majority favor independence
from Serbia..." (New American, 3/15/99)
Scanning through the New American article, I find no mention
of Yugoslavia, *per se*; the nomenclature is always "Serbia
this; Serbia that."
This does not mean that there is no "Yugoslavia," just that
"Yugoslavia" is a word I hear less often and "Serbia" is
a word I hear more often. I'll take previous/current persons'
word for it, that there still is a Yugoslavia consisting
of Serbia/Montenegro. But news reports seem never to refer
to Serbia as Yugoslavia or as part of Yugoslavia these days.
