Abstract

Two research publications devoted to internal and external factors of geopolitical position of the Republic of Srpska (Bosnia and Herzegovina) are reviewed. Both books were published in Serbian in 2020 under the auspices of the Geographic society of Republika Srpska; the author is Igor Zekanovic, a professor at the University of Banja Luka. The advantages and disadvantages of these works are examined; the author of the review argues that their possible translation into Russian, even in an abbreviated form, can contribute to a better understanding of trends, problems and prospects for the development of the Republika Srpska among Russian geographers.
