Summary/Abstract: In his paper, the author supports the thesis that, except very recently, it is very difficult to speak of Bosnian-Herzegovian historiography as a methodological system, but rather as a collection of historiographic works, most of which, although written there, thematically and methodologically belong to neighbouring historiographic orientations and "schools". He analyses the most important historiographic works which were written in Bosnia Herzegovina between 1991 and 2003 (the books by Mustafa Imamović, Mehmedalija Bojić, Dževad Juzbašić, Enver Radžić, Iljas Hadžibegović, Husnija Kamberović and Srećko Džaja) and denotes their role in the development of historiography as a science in Bosnia Herzegovina.
