HISTORIJSKI IZVORI I HISTORIOGRAFIJA BOSNE I HERCEGOVINE
THE HISTORICAL SOURCES AND THE HISTORIOGRAPHY ON BOSNIA-HERZEGOVINA

Summary/Abstract: The results and achievements of historiography are directly dependent on the state and accessibility of the historical sources. As the deficiency in the historical sources in Bosnia and Herzegovina is prevalent, due - inter alia - to their destruction in the recent war in (aggression on) Bosnia and Herzegovina, the capacity for attaining the historical truth is limited. Because of this, as well as a number of other reasons, historiography in Bosnia and Herzegovina is currently not at the satisfactory scientific level. The change in such an unfavourable situation, among other things, is possible only through a clear articulation of the attitudes of historiography and archieves, with suitable material support from the state in terms of an adequate protection, systematisation and access to the historical sources, taking care in all this of the possibilities offered by the modern information technology.
