Summary/Abstract: The reaction of Austro-Hungarian policy on the intensification of national movements of the Slavic peoples was also felt in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which was considered to be a potential framework of Yugoslav reciprocity and convergence. Press editorial boards were centres of national promotion and this ideological and political trend was promoted in various ways – through Slavic media congresses, establishment of associations and inspired texts. The Serb press and their protagonists were thus found under attack of the authorities and were sanctioned in varying ways, which is a topic explored in this paper.
