'The comparison of two case studies in the time frame of the 1990s - the present
time'
This thesis undertakes a comprehensive examination of the political and cultural rights of the
Muslim/Bosniak minority in the Republic of Serbia and the Muslim/Bosniak Minority in the
Republic of Croatia, spanning from the 1990s to the present. The primary research question
focuses on uncovering potential differences in the attitudes of the Croatian and Serbian
governments toward respecting the rights and freedoms of the Muslim/Bosniak minority. The
overarching inquiry probes the differences in the approaches of these governments, shedding
light on the evolving dynamics of minority rights in the post-Yugoslav context.
Conducting qualitative interviews with members of the Bosniak/Muslim communities served
as the foundation for this study, offering essential insights to formulate hypotheses and
comprehend core issues. A notable aspect of this research is the absence of a predefined
hypothesis, allowing the investigation to adapt to the dynamic nature of minority issues in the
selected study cases.
The findings resulting from in-depth open-ended interviews are multifaceted, covering critical
aspects such as political representation, the controversy surrounding minority censuses, the
legal treatment of the minority, and their struggles in cultural, religious, educational, and
political domains. Additionally, the research delves into integration problems and potential
solutions, providing a nuanced understanding of the challenges faced by the Muslim/Bosniak
minority in both countries.
