„Združena Komuna“ (United Commune) is a movement created around the same name blog and later political zine in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Basic principles of movement are libertarianism, democracy, human rights, freedom of speech, struggle against etno-nationalism and clericalism in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

„Združena Komuna“ was established in January 2008. by Nedim Jahić (under pseudonym Bezdomni), law student, with help of Emin Hajrić, student of journalism at University of Sarajevo. Later on, he created blog „zdruzenakomuna.blogspot.com“ . First mentioning in printed media, ZK had in BH DANI in text „Commune of common sense“ written by Vuk Bačanović, Bosnian journalist and historian. In times of Protests in Sarajevo 2008 against local government, ZK played role through texts and video clips (under motto TOTALNA REVOLUCIJA), and by that was acknowledged by key organizer 'Group of citizens' gathered around 'Protest.ba'.

In May, Vuk Bačanović joined the movement, later on Nikola Parun (young intellectual from Zemun, Serbia) and D.V. (identity remains unknown). In July movement successfully printed first, and till today only, edition of printed zine „Združena Komuna“. Nermina Filipović, student of Academy of Fine Arts designed cover. ZK also received significant moral support from Blob (blog of Kreševljaković brothers), Plamenko Muratović (notable activist in civil activism of Sarajevo), and many others.

Movement till today remains unregistrated organization of freethinkers with vision of reactivation of printed zine in next months.
