Architectural Practices in Post-war Bosnia and Herzegovina: The Treatment of Socialist Legacy
Nina Stevanović
Sažetak
This paper focuses on the attitude of contemporary, post-war architectural practices in Bosnia and Herzegovina towards the values of modern and postmodern architectural legacy from the socialist period. The features of this legacy are evaluated and viewed through the correlation of three trends that can be observed in the contemporary architectural discourse in Bosnia and Herzegovina: the language of “pure” postmodernism, the neo-historical or neo-eclectic tendencies, and the approach that follows the guidelines of critical regionalism. The way in which contemporary architectural discourses and the socialist legacy come into interaction has been viewed here with regard to the efforts invested in the reconstruction of Bosnian and Herzegovinian cultural identity, while seeking to identify the link between the changes on the political/ economic and social/cultural levels that resulted from the transition from the socialist society into the postsocialist or capitalist one, and changes in the direction of post-war architectural discourse.
