CRIC researcher Dr. Ioannis Armakolas discusses post-conflict heritage reconstruction and memorialisation in the city of Tuzla,
Bosnia-Herzegovina. Tuzla had a unique history in the 1990's Bosnian war and its aftermath. It is a prime example of a political
elite and a local community stuggling to prevent nationalism and division from taking root despite the ethnic turbulence and war dominating in the entire region. In the post-Bosnian war period, the local auhtorities reconstructed Tuzla's Slana Banja memorial complex by creatively combining socialist regime heritage with 1992-95 war memorials. The reconstructed Slana Banja became an important example of how heritage management can be used for promoting a political vision for a less-ethnically divided Bosnia.
