Imagining the Serbs revisionism in the recent historiography of nineteenth-century Serbian historyDOI: 10.2298/balc1243325k Keywords: historiography , nineteenth century , Serbs , Balkans , Yugoslavia , modernization , radicalism Abstract: The end of the Cold War has brought about a complete change of the political and social context in the world. Consequently, history, as a scholarly discipline, has also undergone a significant transformation. In this broader context, with the destruction of Yugoslavia, the interpretations of the Serbian nineteenth century have been experiencing a far-reaching revision. It is necessary, therefore, to scrutinize the main topics of the debate on nineteenth-century Serbian history in recent world historiography, as well as to examine the main causes of this academic revision.
