Geopolitička konstrukcija unutrašnjih domovina u postdejtonskoj Bosni i Hercegovini
Geopolitical construction of internal homelands in post – Dayton Bosnia and Herzegovina

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the text is to show how in post-Dayton Bosnia and Herzegovina, internal homelands are constituted as ethno-territorialist projects that seek to achieve convergence between ethnic identity and territory. Internal homelands seek to materialize as a product of secondary geopolitical visions after the primary geopolitical visions defined in Ratzel’s terms of creating large states (Greater Serbia and Greater Croatia) at the expense of small ones (Bosnia and Herzegovina) that sought to be realized by war against Bosnia and Herzegovina failed. Thus, new internal homelands emerge as a space for creating new and invoking old myths through the dichotomy of past and present where the inner homeland is not only territory but also a historical category, birthplace, and destiny of an ethnic group.
