    Extractions: Bosnia and Herzegowina (BiH) is a small country. Its area covers only about 50.000 square kilometers, but compared to that figure, it has even too many beautiful landscapes, mountains, clean rivers, canyons and 30 km of the Adriatic coast. Bosnia has cities which, despite of the recent heavy war destruction, still have numerous, exceptional cultural, historical and religious monuments to witness not only the beauty of the region, but also the multicultural and multireligious tradition of this part of Europe. Bosnia and Herzegovina's declaration of sovereignity in 1991, was followed by a declaration of independence from the former Yugoslavia. The Bosnian Serbs - supported by Serbia and Montenegro - responded with armed resistance. The Dayton Agreement retained Bosnia and Herzegovina's international boundaries and created a joint multi-ethnic and democratic government.

It hopes to mirror the success of neighboring Croatia, but Bosnia's pitch is hardly aimed at the beachcombing set. Instead, it is seeking adventurers who want to experience its exotic mix of cultures and natural beauty and who are perhaps unfazed by the notion of a few stray landmines.

87. Bosnia's Cultural Heritage: Highlights
    The Destruction and Reconstruction of bosnia s Cultural Heritage by Andras Riedlmayer, 6/13/96. Although the war in bosnia has attracted intense media  
    http://www.nytimes.com/specials/bosnia/forums/digried.html
    
    Extractions: by Andras Riedlmayer, 6/13/96 Although the war in Bosnia has attracted intense media coverage, one aspect has gone virtually unnoted: the systematic destruction of Bosnia's cultural heritage. Major libraries, archives, museums, ca. 1,200 mosques, 200 churches (mostly Catholic, some Orthodox), and over 1,000 other historic buildings have been targeted by nationalist forces. The result is what a Council of Europe report calls "a major cultural catastrophe." What can we do in response to this assault on memory and identity? Andras Riedlmayer and the Abuse of History by Michael Sells, 6/12/96 There is an abuse of history, which I call "Balkanism," that maintains that people in Bosnia have been involved in ancient hatreds destined to repeat themselves out of genetic or historical fate. This abuse of history was used by the Bush administration (President Bush, Secretary of State Eagleburger, Joint Chiefs Chairman Colin Powell) to excuse its failure in Bosnia. It was then adopted by Secretary of State Warren Christopher and President Clinton himself in 1993 when the Clinton administration acquiesced in the European policy of appeasing the genocide in Bosnia. It is also a favorite of indicted war criminal Radovan Karadzic. The systematic annihilation of culture is a deliberate effort to create on the ground the Balkanist myth, by annihilating the graphic testimony of 500 years of shared life and culture among Catholics, Serb Orthodox, Muslims, and Jews in Bosnia. Yes there had been conflicts, just as there were terrible conflicts throughout Europe. . . .

History B Before the war, the rural Bosnian population lived largely in concentrations of each ethnic group, but the concentrations were so interspersed as to resemble a leopard’s skin. The Muslim population was concentrated mainly in central and eastern Bosnia (bordering Serbia) and in the far west (bordering Croatia). Concentrations of Serbs separated those of the Muslims. Croats were mainly concentrated on the northern and southwestern borders with Croatia, with some Croat pockets in central Bosnia. Serb military campaigns in 1992 and 1993 and Croat campaigns in 1993 and 1995 were aimed at expelling others from areas claimed by these groups. By the end of the war almost all non-Serbs had been expelled from Serb-claimed lands in eastern and northern Bosnia, and non-Croats from Croat-claimed lands in southwestern Bosnia. In turn, most non-Muslims had left land under Muslim control in northwestern Bosnia.

The Need for Information and Enhanced International Co-operation. Amazingly, the picture of the extent of damage in Croatia is incomplete. The Croatian Government does not know what the situation of the heritage is in occupied Krajina and Slavonia. In Bosnia information is even more fragmentary. What is the situation on the battle fronts, and in the zones occupied by each of the parties, but especially by the Serbs, who control about 70% of the territory of Bosnia-Herzegovina? Without basic information - the type that the fact-finding mission found - there is nothing we can do for war-damaged heritage.

    Extractions: Beth Kampschror I knew something was going down Tuesday night in Sarajevo, but didn't find out the magnitude of it until my boyfriend and I tried to order a pizza. It was about ten at night. We'd been watching the news coverage about what had happened in Banja Luka the day before—several thousand Serb rioters had caused massive chaos at a ceremony marking the rebuilding of the Ferhadija Mosque in the town. Banja Luka authorities had recently, reluctantly, agreed to let a new mosque be built where the old one had stood for four centuries before it was destroyed by Serbs in 1993. The international community praised the decision, saying it would allow "multi-ethnicity" to reign in Banja Luka once again. But thousands of rioters created a hailstorm of softball-sized stones, sending international officials and Muslim guests bussed in for the ceremony fleeing. BH-TV showed elderly Muslim men hunched on the ground, bleeding. Rioters lit the seven buses that had brought the Muslims on fire, sending huge pillars of thick black smoke into the sky. About 20 Serbs scaled the walls of the Islamic Community Center and tore down the Muslim flag, burned it and flew a Serb flag in its place. The police stood and watched. Nearly 300 Muslims and international officials crowded into the Islamic Center for refuge, and stayed there for six hours until they were finally evacuated by Republika Srpska police.

    Extractions: Founding of the Museum: The National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina was founded in 1888 and is the oldest among the modern cultural and scientific institutions of Western type in Bosnia and Herzegovina. A line of historical events influenced its establishment. A number of individuals and groups had for a long time prior to its founding emphasized the need for such an institution. The first idea of founding of the museum dates back to 1850. However, nearly four decades passed from the idea to its realization. Two empires ruled over Bosnia and Herzegovina in the meantime - the Ottoman rule gave way to the Austro-Hungarian one. The political, strategic and economic goals set by the Austro-Hungarian administration required the European level of literacy and a more widespread education. As one of the still unexplored countries of the Balkans, Bosnia and Herzegovina was a source of curiosity for many scientists, especially those from Austria-Hungary. At the same time, it also attracted the attention of quasi-scientists, which in the very first years of occupation resulted in their taking away of the monuments of culture from the region. This all contributed to the decision to take more concrete measures with a view to realizing of the long existing idea to found a museum. Thus, the Museum Society was formed and thereupon the National Government founded the National Museum for Bosnia and Herzegovina on February 1st 1888. The adviser to the Government, Mr. Kosta Hörmann, was appointed as director of the Museum.
