The idea gradually emerged in the context of various protests over the past five years, but it has taken a more serious shape as an academic issue by the merging of ¡°Justice for D£¿enan¡± and ¡°Justice for David¡± protests in 2018. Through the protests, starting from the citizens¡¯ ID number and health care to workers¡¯ rights and demobilized war veterans as politicized bodies par excellence up to the institutionalized instrumentalization of death, a biopolitical dimension signed by ethnodeterminism is noticeable. With a political reading of the relationship between counter-hegemonic narratives from below and their increasingly visible criminalization from above, the author problematizes how that which is here called biopolitics of ethnodeterminism produces a narrative of resistance as a possibility which illuminates the reverse of the system, thus calling into question the basis of its legitimation %K Ethnodeterminism %K Ethnopolitics %K Biopolitics %K Protests %K Bosnia and Herzegovina %U https://hrcak.srce.hr/index.php?show=clanak&id_clanak_jezik=345129
