Flag on the Mountain. A Political Anthropology of the War in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina 1990-1995
The author reveals how, during the last decade-and-a-half of the 20th century, military and political leaders in Belgrade utilized themes from patriarchal popular culture and the anti-Ottoman epics for their own political ends, that is, selected and manipulated cultural motifs in order to justify the agression against Croatia and Bosnia. But the book reveals too how the Croatian and Bosniac military and political elites mobilized their own social memories during the post-Yugoslav wars. Drawing on many sources - print media, TV broadcasts, political speeches and particularly new epic poems, unveiled at political rallies and before military or paramilitary audiences and then videly distributed on audio cassettes - this mononograph displays how war profiteers, paramilitary leaders and ideological charlatans took their places harmoniously within the universal theme of Robin Hood, growing into models of local identity and even into national icons and ethic exemplars.
political propaganda - dissolution of Yugoslavia - heroic epic poetry - symbolic legitimization - Serbia - Croatia - Bosnia-Herzegovina
