The research part presents excerpts from interviews carried out for the purpose of own research on Bosnian identity, reflecting the attitudes of Bosnian society towards the reconstruction of the meanings related to Bosnian identity as well as elements of the axiology on borderlands, enabling the society members to perceive the cultural sense of being a Boshnjak, indispensible while establishing own identity.
