Summary/Abstract: In this paper, we focus exclusively on Bosnia and Herzegovina and the public sphere within the state, where—without serious criticism, academic symposia, conferences, scientific and expert papers, or a reasoned public voice, let alone sanctions—the key political actors in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina during the process of Yugoslavia’s dissolution (the SDA, HDZ, and SDS) are being equated. Such leveling would be equivalent to equating the Third Reich and its socio-political actors with the socio-political actors leading today’s processes within the European Union. Moreover, the deliberate and manipulative labeling of all three parties as “national” is carried out, even though two of the three — more precisely the HDZ and SDS in the period we analyze — acted in a Nazi, chauvinist and fascist manner, which has not only been scientifically demonstrated but also confirmed by judgments of international judicial instances. If we remain silent and allow the leveling of these political parties, this will lead — if it has not already — to the equating and dilution of the roles of the Army of “republika srpska” (vrs), the Croatian Defence Council (HVO) and the Army of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (AR BiH), which represents the height of socio-political suicide, the undermining of the anti-fascist struggle and the paving of the way for the destruction of the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
