Praskozorje is a Bosnian panslavistic movement. As noted on the official website,[1] the movement was founded to promote cultural revival of the Bosnian people and disappearance of ethno-religious hatred among different (south) Slavic ethnicities.
History
The movement was founded in 2009 by a group of young like-minded people in Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Ideology
Praskozorje insists on Slavic revival of the country through promotion of the medieval period when Bosnian state (banate and kingdom) was founded and achieved its cultural and economic peak while also insisting on restoring old Slavic traditions, beliefs and mythology.[2] The movement rejects vision of the country provided by the politicians in three modern constitutive peoples. Members also show negative stance towards capitalism, greater Serbia ideology, greater Croatia ideology, Islamism, Neo-Ottomanism and Neoimperialism among Bosnian (and other Slavic nations) itself, promoting the idea about free Slavic nations and Slavic unity.
Actions
The members of the movement went public on 27 August 2011 when they celebrated 623rd anniversary of the Bileca battle where Bosnian army defeated Ottoman Turks for the first time. They waved flags of Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (also Bosnian royal flags) and held big banner with shield of the leader of Bosnian troops at Bileca – Vlatko Vukovic.[3][4] On the same date, next year, Praskozorje organized distribution of explanatory fliers and posters depicting the battle.[5]
Also, in late 2011, Praskozorje assisted the creation of the first Bosnian Slavic Rodnover association called Svaroži Krug (Circle of Svarog).[6]
