Goodbye Tito, hello chaos!

The war in ex Yugoslavia started twenty-five years ago in 1991. Firstly it was Slovenia to move towards independence and then the Croatian War of Independence contributed to the continued dismantling of Tito's united Yugoslavia. The conflicts in Bosnia and Kosovo in the mid-nineties completed the bloodiest decade in recent European history.
Twenty-five years have passed since the start of the independence conflicts in the 90s and the Balkans still represent the symbol of the most atrocious war on European soil after the Second World War. The Balkans are only a few hours away from Paris, London, Berlin or Rome by air but Slovenia, Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Macedonia are still considered 'strangers' to the European Union. The region still evokes images of Kalashnikovs, mafia and slivovitz fruit brandy, rather than peace and prosperity. Though the dream of the Balkan region was to become part of the common European dream, we are currently witnessing the Balkanization of Europe.
The Balkans represent the heart of Europe, situated at a major crossroads between mainland Europe and the Near East. The identity of the region still represents the point of collision between the former Yugoslav republics. Starting from a period of Ottoman influence, the rule of Christian Orthodoxy to the dominion of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, for the Balkans the whole 20th century was marked by war and corruption.
And what about now?
How do the citizens of the former Yugoslavian republics live today? How do they perceive the war in ex Yugoslavia? What do its younger generations aspire to? What about Yugo-nostalgia and Tito? How is the European Union perceived in the moment of the greatest migrant crisis in European history? And above all: what about dialog in the region?
Goodbye Tito, hello chaos! originally is the motto from the project Balkans and Beyond, launched and edited from the European magazine cafebabel.com that unites fourteen young journalists, photographers and video makers from the region who represented the current political, social and cultural situation across the Balkans through their own lenses. The seven countries were covered: Bosnia & Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro, Kosovo, Slovenia, Croatia and Macedonia.
Each story was covered by a journalistic partnership, bringing together one writer and one photographer/video-maker. The panel will integrate the presentation of the Balkans and Beyond e-book.

The Civil Society Programme took place on Wednesday 11 May and Thursday 12 May and provided an opportunity for dialogue between civil society and EBRD staff, senior management, the President and Board Directors.

The Programme also featured multi-stakeholder roundtable sessions on key strategic themes related to the role of civil society as an important actor in transition and development processes. Special features of the Civil Society Programme 2016 were discussions on:
•25 years of Transition - The Role of Civil Society in Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia
•Engaging civil society to promote transparent procurement
•EBRD’s Strategy for the Promotion of Gender Equality (2016-2020): the role of civil society
•Inclusion through skills and innovatiom
In addition, a panel organised by the youth organisation AIESEC looked at the role of youth in shaping the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
25 years of Transition: The Role of Civil Society in Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia
A fire-side chat with Sergei Guriev, Professor of Economics, Sciences Po (incoming EBRD Chief Economist)
Civil society, operating in the space between public and private sectors, has played an important role in socio-political and economic transition processes around the world, including the EBRD’s traditional countries of operations. In 25 years since the establishment of the EBRD, civil society’s contribution to transition has varied across the post-communist transition region. In some countries, the work of civil society organisations (CSOs) has contributed to more democratic political systems and more open market based economies as a ‘reputational actor’ performing a ‘watchdog’ function and as a generator of ‘social capital’ necessary to sustain the change process through the difficult early years. In other countries, the focus of CSOs has been on providing a variety of social services particularly to disadvantaged and vulnerable people negatively affected by the transition process. Many civil society actors have been operating in restrictive regulatory environments, and have relied heavily on international donor funding.
What has been civil society’s input into promoting good governance, sustainable development and economic inclusion in EBRD’s traditional region over the past few decades? What are the key lessons learned, from both its successes and failures that can be applied to other countries embarking on a transition process? What steps could be taken to increase the role of civil society in promoting positive changes in societies and economies?
The discussion looked back at the key achievements and setbacks of the civil society sector in contributing to transition since the Bank’s establishment. It also reflected upon the challenges ahead for civil society in building well-governed, sustainable and inclusive economies and societies.

This symbolic graveyard was an installation mounted by the kids of the Hummingbird F.C. in connection with our Social Communication Programme, Urban Outcries, which brought up the question of small firearms and their consequences on society.
Each cross and each gravestone represents an unreasonable reason for dying. Our kids are just too familiar with the consequences of small firearms in their own community, most of them having already lost a member of their own family.
To emphasize their point and adding to the dreadful statistics, on the very evening of the Urban Outcries programme; 5..., yes, five kids between the age of 14 and 18 were shot dead by the police only 3kms from us! 14-year old Thiago was the brother of one of our capoeira kids, the son of one of our mothers! Shot dead hiding under a bed whilst trying to escape the crazy police hunt for drug traffickers in the favela. Five more stupid reasons to add to our symbolic cemetery.
Below are just some of the phrases our kids left on the gravestones. You can read more unreasonable reasons for dying on the other images in this series:
(Posso ir, estou armado!)
I’m armed so I can go!
(Sempre a carrego comigo!)
I always carry it on me!
(Não quero nem saber, não é meu filho!)
I don’t want to know, he’s not my son!
(Agora eu tenho respeito!)
Now I have respect!
Programme for performance by the Royal English Opera during their 1863–4 season at Covent Garden www.roh.org.uk/about/roh-collections
Title page from the theatre programme for a production of "The Gondoliers" at the Hippodrome Theatre, Keighley, staged by Keighley Amateur Operatic and Dramatic Society in November / December 1921.
Keighley Amateur Operatic and Dramatic Society's production of "The Gondoliers" played at the Hippodrome Theatre in Keighley for six nights (and a Saturday matinee) from Monday 28th November to Saturday 3rd December 1921. The comic opera was written by William S. Gilbert with music by Arthur Sullivan. The KAODS production was produced by Avalon Collard, with musical director Jos. Harker.
The story is set in 1750, in the canal-riddled city of Venice and the Palace of Barataria. Two Gondoliers - brothers Marco and Guiseppe Palmieri (played by Arthur E. Ramsden and Watson M. Walker) - are to select brides from the gathered peasant girls. They settle upon Gianetta (Edith Robson) and Tessa (Mabel Rothera) but the wedding celebrations are interrupted by the arrival of the Duke and Duchess of Plaza Toro (Ernest Marsden and Marion Holmes) with their daughter Casilda (Agnes Battle). As an infant, Casilda was married by proxy to the heir of the King of Barataria, but then, for political reasons, that heir was hidden away and was raised by a Gondolier - and it is believed that either Marco or Guiseppe is that heir! While the heir's original nurse, who could identify the true heir, is sent for, the two brothers are removed to the Palace where they reign jointly. Their new wives are left behind and Casilda is left waiting to discover which is her betrothed. The nurse finally arrives and it turns out that the heir is actually the Duke and Duchess' servant Luiz (John Pickles), the secret lover of Casilda, and so everyone can be reunited with their true loves.
The show also starred W. Bruce Johnston, Sidney Calvert, Alan Petty, Harry Binns, Charles H. Dewhirst, Hilda Smith, Kitty Connolly, Cissie Jowett and Walter Bannister.
The Keighley News of Saturday 3rd December 1921 reviewed the production: "Mr. Johnston and Mr. Marsden are sufficiently versatile to adequately fill almost any roles in comic opera or musical comedy, and when we say that they are successful as Don Alahambra and The Duke of Plaza-Toro respectively we can pay them no higher compliment. Both fully appreciate the subtleties of the Gilbertian humour, whether in song or dialogue, and avoid temptation to exaggerate what is almost wholly the mirth-provoking part of the opera. Moreover, they deliver their lines clearly - a remark which applies to the cast generally... Mr. J. Harker - who, by the way, played Lunz in the 1908 presentation - handles his forces quite smartly as the hon. musical director, and the tasteful work of the orchestra adds considerably to the success of the performance. The restraint shown in their work is distinctly commendable. The dressing and staging of the opera leaves nothing to be desired."
The Society had already performed "The Gondoliers" in 1908, and would to do so again, thirty years later, in 1951.
The 44-page programme was printed by Wadsworth & Co. of Russell Street, Keighley. It measures approximately 190mm by 120mm. The programme was part of an anonymous donation given in 2022.
A mainstay of the 1990s, Otis would accompany the BBC children's TV presenters as they introduced each programme.
Keith Allen and Peter Gabriel were panelists on BBC Radio 4 Loose Ends. The programme was recorded at the Radio 3 Stage on the Saturday morning at WOMAD Charlton Park 2013.
