Description

The seventh issue of Subjective Reasoning — a promotional campaign for Champion International Paper — reviews the conflict in Bosnia and its roots through the rise and fall of the Ottoman Empire. A chronology of war, displayed on the inside covers, depicts the region’s enduring legacy of conflict while a detailed essay, supported by a series of historical maps, traces radical shifts in the empire’s geographical boundaries.
