AREBIČKA ŠTAMPA O BALKANSKIM RATOVIMA
THE BALKAN WARS IN PERIODICALS PRINTED IN AREBICA SCRIPT

Summary/Abstract: The Balkan Wars (1912−1913) had a significant impact upon the European as well as upon the World history reaching to the contemporary period. History has, very often, manifested itself as a sequence of political hypocrisy and absurd. The Balkan Wars were exactly an example of this in the World history. The consequences of these wars are still evident in political, economic and cultural planes of all the states that were either directly or indirectly involved in these wars. These include differences, contradictions, reassessments and “academic” revaluations of historical data with nationalistic purposes. The cynics maintain that the politics devoid of principles during and straight after the Balkan Wars directly caused the First World War and kept on kindling wars and conflicts not only in the region but on a broader scale to the very contemporary era. This article reflects upon the political impact of the Balkan Wars upon our contemporary time and it offers some historical analogies to present political relations in the region. The article also presents a picture of the Balkan Wars as it was given by the periodicals in Arebic script printed in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the particular period.
