20.500.12556/RUL-169329 "Mine, yours, ours, no one’s" ethnonational contestation and heritagization on the case of Bosnia-Herzegovina’s National Museum and Museum of Republika Srpska This article aims to illustrate how heritagization, together with contested cultural heritage, impact the role of national museums relating to specific ethnic identity groups within ethnically divided countries. Through the elements of competing historical ethnonationalist narratives, negation of a civic identity, and legitimization of an imagined ethnic state, the article compares two museums in one country – the National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Museum of Republika Srpska, highlighting the effects of ethnonationalist contestation of cultural heritage and heritagization in a state with weak central control. Findings show that in such settings, national museums with a state-level character become vessels of contested cultural heritage, while museums aimed at strengthening exclusivist ethnic identities gain importance and with that, the status of important sociocultural actors in their respective groups. cultural heritage ethnic identity museums Bosnia and Herzegovina kulturna dediščina etnična pripadnost muzeji Bosna in Hercegovina true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2025-05-23 11:19:54 2025-05-23 11:19:59 2025-05-24 04:18:31 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 Str. 255–275 no. 2 Vol. 31 2025 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 323.1(497.6) 1557-2986 10.1080/13537113.2025.2465205 227935747 Mine__Yours__Ours__No_One_s___Ethnonational_Contestation_and_Heritagization_on_the_Case_of_Bosnia-Herzegovina_s_National_Museum_and_Museum_of_Republi.pdf Mine__Yours__Ours__No_One_s___Ethnonational_Contestation_and_Heritagization_on_the_Case_of_Bosnia-Herzegovina_s_National_Museum_and_Museum_of_Republi.pdf 1 50EAC5C299B5EEE8F363F6FB090E88DC 0f4d50892182a9dca1a3e5ea8aab2237050af7aad393020a61cfc41dcf4a5313 ae95a695-37b6-11f0-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=210624 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/13537113.2025.2465205 0 3c92c1bb-37b6-11f0-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=210623 Fakulteta za družbene vede 0 0 0
