Used in the context of the Yugoslav wars, however, the Serbian struggle for Serbs to remain united in one country does not quite fit the term "irredentism". [156] In the 19th century, Pan-Serbism sought to unite all of the Serb people across the Balkans, under Ottoman and Habsburg rule.

Serbian irredentism across the AVNOJ borders was a contributing factor in the 1990 Serb revolt in Croatia and the 1992–1995 Bosnian War. [64] The second session of the AVNOJ was celebrated in post-war Yugoslavia as the birth of the country and the event was commemorated annually on 29 and 30 November as a two-day national holiday.

The Serbian National Renewal advocated for the decommunization of Serbia, the rehabilitation of the Chetnik movement, the return of the Karađorđević dynasty and Serbian irredentism. The party program, written by Vuk Drašković, envisioned Serbia as the "Piedmont" of Serbian unification and the new Serbian state as a multi-party democracy. [1]
Irredentism and revanchism are two closely related phenomena because both of them involve the attempt to annex territory which belongs to another state. [86] [87] [88] They differ concerning the motivation fuelling this attempt. Irredentism has a positive goal of building a "greater" state that fulfills the ideals of a nation-state.
