Балканско полуострво Јована Цвијића - историјски извори и савремени трендови у друштвеној географији

La péninsule balkanique: geographie humaine is a significant work where Jovan Cvijić synthetized all relevant results regarding the interactions between people and their natural surrounding which provided a unique, integrated representation of the Balkan Peninsula. Scientific contribution of this Cvijić’s work is manifold and cannot be measured only by the actuality of the results in the time when they were published, thus formulating the new concept of anthropogeography, but also by their universality that intrigues the scholarly sphere for a full hundred years. Since the first publication in French in 1918, through publication in Serbian in 1922 (book I) and 1931 (book II), there were several re-editions till nowadays. This monograph offers an inspiration and a valuable basis for understanding the evolution of all phenomena specific for the Balkan Peninsula, in their entirety and continuity, pointing to the current problems and issues, and predicting the subsequent headway of the “Balkan society”. This publication offers to the readers various interpretations of different topics and issues that Cvijić opened in La péninsule balkanique: geographie humaine. In the authors’ comments, these views are sometimes criticized and sometimes glorified, but also re-actualized in the contemporary context.The Proceedings of the International Conference held in Tršić Loznica, October 29-30, 2018.
