Introduction: Whose Bosnia?, Edin Hajdarpasic

Edin Hajdarpasic

The book understands the task of nationalizing one’s “own people” as the basic structural condition on which national projects are founded and renewed. The chapter then approaches nationalist politics in Bosnia using what Claudio Lomnitz has characterized as “grounded theory.”
