Ova zemlja može biti zajednički dom - U Zagrebu se potpisuje Deklaracija o jeziku, u Beogradu Prijedlog za razmišljanje, a u Bosni glave padaju
This Country Can Be a Common Home-A Declaration about Language is signed in Zagreb, in Belgrade a suggestion for thought, in Bosnia heads are falling

Summary/Abstract: This text of Boris Nilević is a discussion from the session Civil society, its institutions and enemies at the International conference Noel Baker – Pauling Peccei: Bosnia and Herzegovina: Democracy, Reconstruction and Integrity, published in the newspaper Oslobođenje on the 4th August 1996. In this text symbolically titled “This Country can be a Common Home”, the author, amongst other things, emphasises the fact that history always repeats itself in these areas, and the only way out of this enchanted circle is the establishment of normal relations between the nations in Bosnia and Herzegovina. In order to calm the turbulent Dinaric forcefulness in Bosnia, even though Tvrtko and Tito could not achieve this, we need a “semi-saint” leader who would be able to enter everybody’s national-confessional corner. In fact, before that, each ethnicity in Bosnia and Herzegovina should undergo a catharsis, a cleansing of the mind, and according to the author’s opinion, the Serbs more than the others.
