Yugoslav Unification in the Work of Hamdija Kapidžić

This paper uses Hamdija Kapidžić’s study Bosna i Hercegovina u vrijeme austrougarske vladavine (članci i rasprave) [hereinafter: Bosnia and Herzegovina in the Austro-Hungarian period (Articles and Discussions)] in order to question the way in which the socialist historiography of Bosnia and Herzegovina observed the Yugoslav unification in 1918, and the extent to which historical revisionism was present in that approach. The analysis focuses on the scientific profile of researchers, relevance of sources, the connection between the source and the conclusion for the purpose of determining the extent to which Kapidžić’s theses are scientifically founded and the extent to which they were a product of historical revisionism.
