The Nonconformists

More about the book

The book explores the emergence of Serbia's national movement in the late 20th century, emphasizing the role of cultural processes over purely political motivations. The author examines the contributions of three key intellectuals—Dobrica Ćosić, Mića Popović, and Borislav Mihajlović Mihiz—who recognized the failures of communism and sought to redefine Serbian identity. By blending traditional cultural imagery with contemporary realities, they shaped a new national consciousness that challenged both historical narratives and political manipulation.
