Summary/Abstract: Cultural policy is not a novel concept, it existed long before before our time and its development can be traced through history until today. The increasing number of social actors and phenomena in cultural life today justifies the need for research in this area and also presents a constant challenge for researchers. Branko Prnjat is the Serbian pioneer in cultural policy, the first not only to recognize the significance of exploring the concept of cultural policy but also to lay the foundations for teaching cultural policy at university level. Prnjat is also responsible for the definition of cultural policy in terms of awakening, which includes not only recognizing new values but also reaching them. A multicultural community, which is at the same time also a multilingual community, can only flourish and its identity can only be forged if cultural policy is equally exercised by the state power, if there is mutual respect for cultures.
