Abstract: Political elites continue to instil notions of fear of the Other in Bosnia & Hercegovina (BiH), which could lead to renewed violence in a context of growing socio-economic and political instability. Considerable literature on BiH indicates that more should have been done to foster reconciliation between the antagonists. The purpose of this article is to clarify the relationship between trust, a crucial element of reconciliation, and identity. Based on a series of semi-structured interviews conducted in BiH, this article also seeks to deepen our understanding of significant factors to consider for building trust through an incremental process.
