Abstract:
Recent Bosnian criticism, directly or indirectly, deals with the issue of classification and systematization of Tvrtko Kulenović's literary work, which due to its specificity can hardly be reduced to usual conventions. This paper gives an overview of the very specificity of that, above all, polyvalent literary work, which encompasses travelogues, plays (dramas), essays and novels – genres that sometimes act separately, and sometimes represent a habitus, i.e. a unique textual universe of Tvrtko Kulenović.

Abstract:
This essay observes contemporary Islamic dress practices in Bosnia-Herzegovina as a catalyst throwing into relief various tensions within Bosnian society – not only between Bosniaks, Serbs and Croats, but among Bosniaks themselves. Based on fieldwork carried out in Sarajevo, it looks at how people employ notions of culture and tradition when justifying what types of Islamic dress, if any, are compatible with Bosnian modernity. The essay analyses how people selectively draw on fragments from the historical and ethnographic record when they argue for or against veiling, and shows how, even though many denounce veiling and particularly face veiling as foreign to Bosnia, women who veil themselves equally draw on notions of culture and tradition when justifying their dress choices to others. The essay highlights how competing visions of Islam play a role in the transformation of religious, ethnic and gender identities in Bosnia-Herzegovina, and argues that dress as a gendered bodily practice does not merely mark assumed essential differences between an imagined Bosnian and foreign Islam but serves as a crucial means of their construction.

Abstract:
With my husband Miško Šuvaković, I spent October 1998 in Ljubljana, Slovenia. It was a time when Serbia expected a NATO intervention, which happened in the spring the following year. I was intensively reading the selection of Slovenian poetry translated into Serbo-Croatian by the Slovenian-Bosnian poet, Josip Osti. As someone raised as a Yugoslavian by nationality, the wars in Yugoslavia were a personal drama. Inspired by Osti’s translations and the political situation, I wrote fourteen poems titled “Eseji o slobodi kretanja” (“Essays on the Freedom of Moving”). At the centre of most of these poems were the questions of borders in materiality and in our minds, and of the impossibility of moving through the new countries’ borders that appeared during and after the Yugoslavian wars. The emotional relationship to the war as well as the geopolitical and geocultural changes in this region are at the center of these poems. The two poems presented here were published in my collection of poetry, All-Over (Belgrade: Feminist 94, 2004).

Abstract:
This study examines the hypothesis that language learning strategies (LLS) partly account for the level of L2 proficiency (i.e. the level of L2 lexical complexity produced in the written output of English language learners). To test the hypothesis, 152 English-proficient freshman students of Bosnian L1 linguistic background were surveyed utilizing the Strategy Inventory for Language Learning (SILL) designed by Rebecca Oxford (1990). Their lexical output was collected through short essays that were written during formal exams held in English for Academic Purposes undergraduate courses at the International University of Sarajevo. The written samples were converted to an electronic format and analyzed with the Web-based Lexical Complexity Analyzer (Lu, 2012; Ai & Lu, 2010). Relationships between six SILL subscales and twenty-five lexical complexity (LC) measures were assessed through applying the principles of correlational design. The results confirmed the hypothesis. Statistically significant correlations were found between memory strategies and three LC measures, cognitive strategies and twenty LC measures, compensation strategies and nine LC measures, and affective strategies and three LC measures. It is concluded that the relationship between LLS and LC levels is mostly conditioned by LLS types.

Abstract:
This article was written in review of the 27th anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide which, in 2022, overlapped with the Eid al Adha celebrations. The author recalls some of the facts related to the Bosnian genocide and the horrific, inhumane regard which the perpetrators had for the bodies of those they had killed, reminding us that remembrance is not only crucial in itself but because genocide can happen anywhere. She then turns to the ‘catastrophic’ failures of western policy during the 1990s rooted substantially in Islamophobia and a desire to emphasise Christianised Europe, contrasting this with the intellectual galvanisation and growth of self-consciousness which has subsequently occurred among Bosniaks with a view to remembering the past but also to the rebuilding of a multiethnic Bosnia and Herzegovina. Healing remains fraught with difficulties, but coming to a reckoning with the past requires an ultimate rejection of the harmful stereotypes about the region and its peoples in which, recalling Marko Attila Hoare’s recent essay, removal of the faultlines which stem from the western mindset is critical.

Abstract:
AbstractThis article examines Austrian perceptions of the people and landscape of Bosnia-Herzegovina from 1878 to 1908. It traces Austrians’ fantasies about and encounters with Bosnian Muslims, whom they often categorized as “Turks.” Following the Congress of Berlin, Austrians claimed to be doing the civilizing work of “Europe” in Bosnia. The article investigates the meanings of border and borderlands between the Habsburg Empire and Ottoman Bosnia, focusing in particular on crossings of the Sava River. Drawing on the writings of soldiers, administrators, journalists and travel writers, the essay considers a number of mental maps, imagined geographies of what Habsburg authors thought they knew about the land and people they occupied. It contributes to a growing scholarship on the Habsburg-Ottoman borderlands.

Abstract:
Bosnia and Herzegovina has been going through an extensive European Union-related reform process for more than a decade, yet the country still faces a serious democratic deficit. In particidar, the post-Dayton public sphere has been dominated by ethno-nationalist political elites which exclude non-nationalists and members of minority groups from the decision-making process. This is a clear paradox, since one of the main objectives of the integration of European countries into the European Community was to reduce disintegrative influences of nationalists, and establish a peaceful, prosperous, and secure community. This essay explores the process of the post-Dayton ethno-nationalization in BiH resulting in widespread discrimination against so-called Others as defined in the Constitution, In the postwar era, BiH democratic participation has tumed into a competition between the three ethnic communities, Bosniaks, Serbs, and Croats, rather than a contest of equal individuals with an equal right to vote. As a result, Bosnian people still live under a political system which is closer to ethno-democracy or ethnocracy rather than a democratic regime. Under such a discriminatory regime, BiH cannot enter the European Union, which is a model of an open, democratic society.

Abstract:
This essay on the work of the Bosnian artist Mladen Miljanović, born in Zenica, Yugoslavia, in 1981, is wrought around an account of the divided place in which his art is mobilised. Following a short military term, Miljanović enrolled at the Academy of Arts, in Banja Luka, where he still lives. A potent opposition to a divisive ethno-nationalist politics ever-present in the post-conflict, post-socialist, transition era of Bosnia-Herzegovina, Miljanović deploys what he calls an artistic-military practice. Incorporating cartographic and military surveying techniques learnt at a reserve officer military school, Miljanović deconstructs his own soldierly past and interrogates, through his artistic-military practice, an ethno-nationalist militarised Bosnia-Herzegovina. I focus in the main here on the artist’s recent attempt to represent post-conflict Bosnia-Herzegovina at the 55th Biennale di Venezia, a granite triptych entitled, The Garden of Delights.

The article looks into the present education system in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the influence of politics in the creation and maintenance of segregated schools. It analyzes the concept of “educational protectionism,” which underlines the difference between “ethnically correct education” and “adequate education,” the latter being embedded in the human rights for group minorities to have education that reflect their language, culture, history, and religion. The article presents a preliminary case study of a multiethnic schoolin Popov Most, Eastern Bosnia, analyzing parents’ attitudes toward controversial educational issues such as language, religious teaching, and history.

Abstract:
This thesis consists of three empirical chapters that examine issues in development economics. Chapter 1 focuses on the effects of civil wars on the welfare of individuals. I use a unique data set that contains information on war casualties of the 1992-1995 Bosnian War, and exploit the variation in war intensity and birth cohorts of children, to identify the effects of the war on schooling attainment. I find that cohorts affected by war are less likely to complete secondary schooling, if they resided in municipalities that endured higher levels of war intensity. Ancillary evidence suggests that my estimates are most likely picking up immediate, rather than long-term effects. Furthermore, direct mechanisms such as the destruction of infrastructure and the out-migration of teachers do not seem to matter; instead, the ancillary evidence suggests that youth soldiering may be more important. Chapter 2 studies the impact of the partition which ended the Bosnian War on the post-war provision of public goods at the municipality-level. Comparing trends in the provision of public schooling across partitioned and unpartitioned municipalities during the 1986-2006 period, I find that partitioned municipalities provide 58 percent more primary schools and 37 percent more teachers (per capita). I also find evidence which suggests that convergent preferences - operating via ethnic politics - for ethnically oriented schools may be an important driver of the results, although I cannot rule out the possibility of mechanical explanations. In addition, as the increase in public goods provision may be ethnically oriented, only the ethnic majority profits from this arrangement. Chapter 3 provides an estimation of network effects among rural-urban migrants from Nang Rong, Thailand, by using heterogeneous migration responses to regional rainfall shocks among villagers as exogenous variation affecting network size. I find that social networks significantly reduce the duration of job search, and surprisingly, draw new migrants into the agricultural sector. I argue that this is not because agricultural jobs are more attractive than non-agricultural ones, but rather that my estimates are essentially local average treatment effects that are estimated off agricultural workers who are most affected by rainfall shocks.

Abstract:
The articles written by friends, colleagues, former students, and one current doctoral student collected in this celebratory volume dedicated to the doyen of Ottoman studies in Croatia, Professor Nenad Moačanin, are divided into three main chapters entitled “Ottoman Bosnia, Turkish Croatia, and Turkey in Europe,” “Distant Borders and Regions,” and “Glimpses Beyond the Ottoman Border: Habsburg Croatia and the Republic of Dubrovnik.” The first section consists of the articles predominantly dedicated to the main fields of interests of Nenad Moačanin, namely social and economic history of the Ottoman Empire, with special focus on Ottoman Bosnia, the Balkans and Central Europe, as well as the Ottoman borderland in Croatia. The second section entitled “Distant Borders and Regions” brings three articles which are geographically remote from the Western Balkans and Central Europe, such as Crimea, Syria, and Palestine, but nevertheless fit well into the conception of the volume by offering a possibility for comparison of distant regions. The third section “Glimpses Beyond the Ottoman Border: Habsburg Croatia and the Republic of Dubrovnik” contains five articles which provide an important insight into the situation on “the other side.” The volume also includes a biographical overview of Professor Moačanin’s scientific and educational career at the beginning, and the bibliography at the end of the volume.

Abstract:
The essay treats the long-term patterns of Bosnia and Herzegovina's (BiH) constituent peoples' (Bošnjaks, Croats, and Serbs) foreign policy orientations as seen by Russian diplomats. Comparative analysis is based on the first Russian study of the area, Bosnia, Herzegovina and Ancient Serbia (1859) by Alexander F. Gilferding, first Russian Consul in Sarajevo, as well as on contemporary documents of the Archives of Foreign Policy of the Russian Federation from 1995 to 1998. The object of this study is to investigate the descriptions of their Bosnian counter-parts from all three main ethnic groups in order to find out long-term patterns and their evolution from the middle of the nineteenth to the early twenty-first centuries. In both the middle of the nineteenth and at the dawn of the twenty-first centuries, Russian diplomats reported on fundamental differences in the foreign policy orientations of BiH's Bošnjaks, Croats, and Serbs. Their Bosnian counterparts, regardless of their ethnic origin, almost unanimously stated that the Bošnjaks were looking towards Turkey, the Croats towards the West, and the Serbs towards Russia. These fundamental sympathies directly influenced Bosnian politicians' actions. For Russia, it meant that Republika Srpska's leaders were eager to use every possibility to cooperate with Moscow as well as the neartotal neglect of Russian propositions by Bošnjak and Croat leaders. Nevertheless, these long-term patterns have evolved over the last 150 years. Alexander Gilferding recorded the predominantly confessional identity of Bosnians. In the late 1990's however, Bosnians perceived themselves primarily ethnically, with the religious factor somewhat subordinated to ethnicity. Furthermore, there is a visible evolution of foreign policy orientation for Bosnian peoples: (a) the Bošnjaks, along with the habitual attraction to Turkey, are now drawn to the wider Arab world and the US, inasmuch as their support was crucial during the Bosnian War of 1992-1995 and for the maintenance of BiH's very existence; (b) the Croats no longer gravitate towards Vienna, but to Zagreb and Germany; and (c) the Serbs are drawn to pan-Serb interests, with a predominant orientation towards Serbia (FRY of the late 1990s), which has become more important than their still existing penchant for Russia. However, even such an evolution does not alter the fundamental differences between BiH's constituent peoples' aspirations that effectively exclude any coherent and widely accepted foreign policy. Therefore, the Bosnian political scene is extremely sensitive towards tensions between the global centres to which its constituent peoples gravitate.

Abstract:
Based on the previously unpublished archival materials, the essay reconstructs history of the stay of the Russian diplomat Alexander S. Ionin (1837–1900) in the Ottoman provinces of Bosnia and Herzegovina. In 1857, for the first time in history, the Russian consulate was opened in the principal city of the Bosnian Pashalyk. A. Ionin was assigned to Sarajevo as a secretary and dragoman in this consulate. Here he worked under the leadership of A. Hilferding, and then E. Shchulepnikov until 1860. Ionin witnessed the uprisings in Herzegovina, worked hard on the problem of opening a Russian consulate in Mostar, and for some time unofficially served as a consul in Sarajevo. This was the first diplomatic experience of a man who eventually spent about 30 years of his life in the Balkans and was an active participant in many significant events in the history of the region.

Abstract:
The essay focuses on the book Montenegro, Bosnia, Herzegovina by two young French reporters Henry Avelot (1873-1935) and Joseph de la Neziere (1873-1944). The way the book came into being and its future literary life speak of the lively interest shown by French society to Slavic lands in the Balkans. H. Avelot is known as children's book author, comic writer, cartoonist, and illustrator. He collaborated with such publications as Le Rire and La Vie Parisienne. In 1893 he travelled to the Balkans with his friend, the artist J. de la Neziere, a passionate traveller, who preferred Oriental subjects for his works. In the Southern Slavic lands, they were interested in the Oriental reality of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the traditional life of the locals, and the combination of patriarchal culture with the latest Western influences. The main target of their voyage was the Princedom of Montenegro, and their book is dedicated to Prince Nicholas I, the ruler of the country. The book gives a clear idea of the personalities of the authors. These are young people; curious, witty, and ironic. They look at the world in front of their eyes with awe and joy. The text is a collection of witty and ironic essays, and the illustrations are sketches created by true researchers. The images are accurate, de-tailed, and diverse. Bearing the imprint of its authors' personalities, the book is as detailed as modern travel guidebooks. The book Montenegro, Bosnia, Herzegovina was created with passion and contains 204 original illustrations. Being both writ-ers and artists, the authors perceive and recreate the landscapes around them so accurately and colourfully that the readers can literally see these lands together with the travellers themselves. The authors make sure they describe every town, village, and island they encountered, making detailed ethnographic sketches.

Abstract:
This essay will provide an introductory discussion of the historiography of the Bosnian genocide of 1992–1995 in the works of foreign scholars. The historiography is too large for this discussion to be exhaustive. We have attempted here to provide the principal categories of relevant works while citing the most important examples of them, before discussing the historiographical deficiencies and the tasks awaiting future scholars of the genocide. The reason for the dearth of monographs on the Bosnian genocide is that the subject is highly controversial, and any scholar who seriously studies it and expresses an opinion is likely to create enemies for themselves. There is a tendency of scholars to see the war in postmodernist terms, in terms of Serb, Croat and Bosniak “narratives”; as opposed to objective truth, which discourages taking the subject intellectually seriously. Furthermore, the prevailing ideology and discourse stemming from the international administration is one of reconciliation and putting the past behind us. So there is a disincentive to study the genocide in depth; a preference for studying more liberal feel-good themes related to reconciliation, memory, transitional justice and post-war reconstruction. The Bosnian genocide therefore awaits a new generation of foreign scholars to take it seriously as a subject and explore it in detail.

The Slovenian-Bosnian poet, writer, essayist, literary critic, translator and editor Josip Osti (1945–2021) was born in Sarajevo, lived and worked in Slovenia since 1990. Being a recognized poet in his homeland, writing in Croatian, one of the largest translators of Slovenian literature into Serbo-Croatian, since 1997 he has been writing in Slovenian. The transcultural aspects of Josip Osti’s literary works, both poetry collections and novels, are a unique phenomenon. In our study, we turned to the novels of Josip Osti, namely his trilogy — Ghosts of the House of Heinrich Böll (2016), In Front of the Mirror (2016) and Life is a Creepy Fairy Tale (2019). All three works have a strong (auto)biographical component and form a special novel form, which the author calls the “kaleidoscope-mosaic” novel. The latter has a fragmented structure and consists of short stories, life stories, anecdotes, urban legends, essayistic notes, literary-critical digressions, lyrical passages, diary entries, etc. In Osti’s novels, we also find a connection with the tradition of short prose in Bosnian-Herzegovina literature, in particular, with the works of the 1990s by such authors as M. Jergović, D. Karahasan, N. Veličković, K. Zaimović and others. Their texts are characterized by a destabilized genre form, a mosaic narrative, personal and documentary evidence, and a palimpsest narrative model. The kaleidoscopic structure of Osti’s prose texts helps him to reflect the transcultural view characteristic of his intimate and artistic world, to embrace the complex overlap of heterogeneous elements. The novels are written in Slovene, but they are mainly devoted to the space of Sarajevo, the unique multicultural atmosphere of this city, as well as the tragedy unfolding in it; thus, the writer complements the so-called “Sarajevo text”, but already in the field of Slovenian literature, artistically comprehending the interconnectedness of Bosnia and Slovenia.
