The journal Historical Thought was launched with the aim of providing additional impetus to the
development of historical science in Bosnia and Herzegovina and creating a new space for
publishing research results in the field of historiography, to the established historians and
young researchers, postgraduate and doctoral students, professors of history, but also other to
experts in related sciences who can offer papers in accordance with the scientific and
professional standards of the journal. The publishers launched the journal based on a belief
that historical science should be given a better status in the scientific life of
Bosnia and Herzegovina and in our society in general, including the need to affirm historical
insights as important prerequisites for humanizing social relations in Bosnia and Herzegovina
and the former Yugoslavia.
In the past period, the Department of History has paid great attention to scientific research,
which has resulted in numerous publications (books, journals), PhD dissertations and
scientific conferences. Thus, the Department, together with the Association of Historians of
the Tuzla Canton, launched the scientific journal Historical Thought in 2015, and
currently five issues have been published. Prior to that, the Department had a journal
titled Saznanja . Also, in the past period, employees and associates of the Department
have published a number of books of a scientific nature.
