DRUŠTVENO-ISTORIJSKI I POLITIČKI KORIJENI ZAVNOBIH-A
SOCIAL-HISTORY AND POLITICAL ROOTS OF ZAVNOBIH

Summary/Abstract: In the form of a concise retrospect of the modern historical development of the peoples of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the author deals with the historical and political roots of ZAVNOBiH (The Legislative Antifascist Council of the Peoples’ Liberation of Bosnia and Herzegovina), which marks the appearence of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the contemporary stage o-f its history, and which — according to the author — represents a specific form of national disalienation of the peoples of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The basic thesis of this paper is founded on the idea that equality of peoples is essentially conditioned by the form of social relationships: equality of peoples is impossible in a society founded on exploitation of man by man. Abolition of exploitation and social discrimination is the elementary condition for equality among nations. Only in the society which is governed by social and political equ- alitiy of citizen, there exist the preconditions for equality of poeples within the state. The degree of freedom and equality of peoples is strictly dependent on the degree of human freedom and social equality of citizens. The original predecessor of the Socialist Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the ZAVNOBiH, has — in this territory — historically marked the beginning of the era of free citizens and equal peoples of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
