Abstract

This paper provides an analysis of the politics and culture of 20 years of genocide denial in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and neighbouring Serbia and Croatia. It shows how denial at the political level spilled over to a culture of genocide, which is pervasive, from public spaces to schools, art, sports and popular culture. I argue that without significant revision of the Criminal Code and a radical reform of education, we can expect to see continuation of the denial of the Srebrenica genocide for many years to come.
