Summary/Abstract: The author, on the basis of his insight into the less known and new documents, presented the activities of the Bosniac political elite at the end of the second and the beginning of the third decade of the 20th century. At the time period between the fall of Austria-Hungary on the one hand, and the rise of the Yugoslav state, i.e. the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenians on the other, certain characteristics of the Bosniac elite in the ways they thought and functioned were reflected. The author considers this approach necessary in order to understand historical developments in the period that followed
