| Summary: | Twenty-five years after the end of the war, the political and social scene of Bosnia and Herzegovina is still characterized by the mentality of the 1990s. In recent months, we have witnessed political rhetoric that is very much reminiscent of the time before, at the beginning, and during the war.

In this concluding section, I will discuss how we have used our academic resources in an attempt to change the situation and strengthen social responsibility. |
