Text topic: New Key to Sociology
Text author: Ивана Павловић
After the dissolution of SFRY and ensuing wars, the history textbooks in newly formed states were modified. New identities and new visions of some issues had to be fitted into new ideological frameworks. The main purpose of this paper is to determine how different countries, formed after the dissolution of SFRY, represented ensuing wars, how different individual and social actors (presidents of republics, military corps, nations) represented themselves, whether stereotypes of nations and ideologies were exploited, what was the ideological purpose of certain narratives of the SFRY wars, how much importance was attributed to this topic in separate national histories, and what significance representation of Yugoslav wars in historic textbooks could have for the future relations in the Balkans.
