Summary/Abstract: Based on original documents and reference works on the example of establishment of the Autonomous Region of Krajina, the author has analyzed the role of intellectuals in the process of dissolution of Yugoslavia and the territorial and legal disintegration of the B&H territory in the course of 1991 and 1992. Banja Luka, the political center of the selfproclaimed unit, gathered the Serb political and intellectual elite that had somewhat different outlook on the ‘regionalization’, that is, ‘SAOization’ of Bosnia and Herzegovina than the Serb political elite in Sarajevo. The paper particularly focuses on the role and contribution of intellectuals in planning and forming a relatively compact political and legal territory.
