Ratni gubici Srbije u Prvom svetskom ratu - kontroverze oko brojeva

Abstract

The author highlights various discrepancies in literature concerning numerical data from the recent past. There are a number of examples which demonstrate their long-lasting and complex character. This complexity often stems from an emotional connection with previous interpretations, as in the case of the number of Serbian casualties in World War I. A thorough analysis of previous interpretations reveals significant differences and discrepancies. This paper discusses the diverging interpretations, as well as certain newly discovered sources, indicating that the total number of Serbian casualties in World War I needs to be reconsidered.
