Ljubomir Mihajlović or Mihailović (Serbian Cyrillic: Љубомир Михајловић; Belgrade, Kingdom of Serbia, 14 August 1874 - Belgrade, Serbia, Yugoslavia, 23 January 1957) was a Serbian diplomat.[1] During his work in Macedonia, his main activity as a consul and diplomat was national propaganda and the awakening of national consciousness.

Biography

He graduated from high school and law school in Belgrade, and after that he studied law in Paris.[1] He was in the diplomatic service from 1889 to 1918.[1] He was a clerk at the embassy in Constantinople.[1] He worked in the consulate in Skopje from 1906 to 1907, first as a vice-consul, and then as a consul.[2] During his stay in Skopje, there was a conflict between two currents among Serbian national workers, and it was about the so-called metropolitan and consular current.[2] The metropolitan current was led by Skopje bishop Vićentije Krdžić, who tried to completely take over from the consular current the management of both the revolutionary organization and education in Macedonia.[2] Until then, Serbian consuls managed the revolutionary organization and education. Ljubomir Mihajlović proved to be an indecisive consul, i.e. not good enough for the consular stream, so he was transferred from Skopje to Bitola.[2] He was consul in Skopje for a short time (June 29, 1907 – September 10, 1907). In 1907, he was transferred to the position of consul in Bitola. From 1912 to the end of 1914, he was chargé d'affaires in Rome.[1] From 1915 to 1916, he was an ambassador to King Nikola in Montenegro, and from 1917 to 1918, he was an ambassador to the USA.[1] During 1925, he was elected as a member of parliament.

His wife was a doctor, Božana Bartoš Mihailović, and his son, a chemist and academic, Mihailo Mihailović.
