Sažetak
The text analyzes three locations in Bihać with abandoned buildings where migrants are formally or informally sheltered. These are the buildings that were once part of the industrial or urban infrastructure, but today they are abandoned and devastated ruins that have become
shelters due to the arrival of migrants. This article seeks to question the struggles over who has the right to use these ruins, to whom they belong, and what they mean to the community in the context of the city’s past and future. The article is based on a multi-day stay in Bihać in the fall of 2022, field notes, photographs, and media articles related to the Bihać cases.
