Summary/Abstract: This essay analyzes the deep problems of the Bosnian society which have permanently disavowed and blocked its development as a democratic and pluralistic legal-state community. The conscious and intentional leaving of the substantial and real developmental democratic society problems and their replacement by false problems of the nation and confession, lead this state and society to the last place of the comparative indicators and exact measurements in the European civilization. How do the mechanisms of mythology formation function, whose basis are extremely destructive and religious motives, are shown in the semiotic concept of Roland Barthes. The concequences of absolutism and hyperthrophically confessional motives are extremely devastating and destructive in the multi-confessional communities. The complete democratization and secularization of the society, which has the potential to neutralize ethnic tensions, is the only option that can preserve state sovereignty in its optimum capacity.
