This book focuses on the end of four centuries of Ottoman rule in
Bosnia and Herzegovina in the 1870s. After an introduction to the
region and the political zeitgeist of the late 1860s and early
1870s, it examines in detail the dramatic years beginning in the
summer of 1875, when the outbreak of violent unrest in the eastern
Herzegovinian region bordering Montenegro led to a massive refugee
catastrophe. The study traces the surprising further political and
social dynamics to the summer and fall of 1878, when a Habsburg
army finally invaded the Bosnian Vilayet and took control of the
province - but only after months of fighting against massive local
resistance throughout the province. This book cannot be viewed in
isolation from larger political dynamics, which are also constantly
present in this study as they unfolded. However, as this book
attempts to show, it is hardly possible to understand the often
contradictory effects of these larger political dynamics without
delving deeper into the complex local rationalities and constraints
on the action of the actors involved in them. The End of Ottoman
Rule in Bosnia will appeal to students, teachers, and researchers
in late Ottoman and Bosnian history.
