[edit] Yugo-nostalgia's Support Numbers?

I'm a little skeptical to the real widespread support of Yugo-nostalgia. None of the all major political parties in the former Yugoslav republics, even those who reformed from the old Communists, openly call for the reunification of Yugoslavia, and those who do gather only around 2-3% of the votes. There were also a lot of online sources that state primarily many of the tiny numbers who long for the old Yugoslavia are Serbs, while, say, Slovenians have not looked back since independence in 1991. Certainly far lesser than even Ostalgie. --JNZ 20:55, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

A week or two ago I ran across an article about yugonostalgia in Slovenia (with their incoming presidency of the EU). It mentioned that people miss the way of life in Yugoslavia and the new EU way has brought about a change to the country which some believe is for the worse. Unfortunately, I can't find it no more. Tried Google News Search but it was bumped off - probably about a month old now. --68.145.246.117 (talk) 02:49, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Funny, I just searched again and found an article published today on the subject in the NY times - http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/30/world/europe/30yugo.html?em&ex=1201842000&en=c56a8eecffa6b5ca&ei=5087%0A Found it: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5784869 --68.145.246.117 (talk) 02:53, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

I hear that Yugo-nostalgia exists because surpisingly, a vast majority in the ex-yugoslavia actually wants reunification —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.95.114.241 (talk) 04:01, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

That's true. The majority of ex-yugoslavs want reunification. Many forums on line (topix.com, balkan forum etc.) confirm that fact. Ther are much more supporters of new united Yugoslavia on all those forums than those ones who oppose the idea. Between the strongest supporters of new Yugoslavia are Bosnians, Dalmatians, Serbs and Macedonians. Their number is growing bigger and bigger,and their time is coming soon .

Typical POV. Scholar example. You've decided for others what they feel, you decide on national feelings of others, you don't care what others think. Kubura (talk) 11:04, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

LOL, I suggest renaming this article to "Yugo-nostalgia halucinations" with previous anon comments as relevant sources. Zenanarh (talk) 11:26, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
