Bosnia and Herzegovina is a post-communist country and a postwar country in transition. Bosnian society is still very much in the midst of healing, reconciliation and reconstruction at all levels--educational, political, social, psychological, economic, etc. There are opportunities in Bosnia to apply one's academic specialization to "history in progress" by working with Bosnians and the large international community in Bosnia and Herzegovina on issues of reconstruction, reconciliation and recovery.
