Abstract
This paper consists of two major parts, the first of which deals with the history and the second, with the ethnography (primarily social organization) of the Serbo-Croatian speaking Muslims of Bosnia-Herzegovina. In the historical section Lockwood traces the process of Bosnian Muslim ethnogenesis, and the gradual transformation from religious converts to an established ethnic group. He then examines the relationship between these developments and the cultural status of Bosnian Muslims, especially the Bosnian Muslim peasants in the Yugoslavia of the 1960s-1970s.
