New Nations, Old Hatreds
When the Iron Curtain came down, westerners applauded as countries threw off the Soviet yoke. But events did not stop there. Croatians, Moldavians and Slovaks all wanted to set up new nations. What should the west's response be? Is the new nationalism good or bad? John Tusa , Managing Director of BBC World Service, debates the issue with those who think it truly democratic and those who believe it revives old hatreds, as in Yugoslavia.
