Slated for December 10, the conference will bring together scholars and researchers from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and Serbia.
Dimensions and consequences of violence and extremism in international system, theoretical bases of extremism and violence, and strategies for combating extremism and violence are some of the themes to be discussed at the conference.
