Culture Wars: Serbian History Textbooks and the Construction of National Identity
Abstract
This paper explores the development of a new form of national identity as mediated through the history curriculum in the new nation of Serbia and Montenegro. It compares the politics and ideology of creating forms of national identity in the pre-and post-Miloševic era. The paper illustrates how the history curriculum in Serbia and Montenegro was and remains dominated by issues focusing upon what it means to be Serbian and provides a case study example of the power of the history curriculum in creating senses of belonging.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
