Commercial Disputes in Bosnia and Herzegovina: Review of Courts, Parties, Cases, and Documents of the Early Post-Ottoman Period

Summary/Abstract: The transformation of the commercial court system in Bosnia and Herzegovina during the second half of the 19th century took place in two different legal and political contexts. The first is Tanzimat - during the Ottoman rule, and the second is the reform under Austro-Hungarian occupation. In both of these contexts, there was a break with the previous order and the reception of new and foreign legal models. Despite such a dynamic development of commercial law, the modern legal and legal- historical literature has not dealt with this phenomenon in detail. The organization and work of commercial courts have been exclusively the subject of incidental historical reconstruction in older literature, but also in some new studies with a historical approach and content. However, legal-historical analyzes of specific court proceedings and judgments of commercial courts in Bosnia and Herzegovina have been completely absent. Given the above-described gaps in the existing literature, this paper seeks to take the first steps in elucidating commercial litigation and the development of commercial law in Bosnia and Herzegovina during the last decade of Ottoman and the first five years of Austro-Hungarian rule.
