References 227 Excerpts from reviews This publication is the first comprehensive review of gender bias in criminal and civil legal practice and court rulings in the Western Balkans and makes an important contribution to the topic internationally. The Gender Bias and the Law Handbook answers the question, Why Does Gender Matter?, covering topics such as implicit and explicit gender bias, domestic violence, sexual assault, divorce, custody, witness credibility, labor law, pensions and inheritance. This resource will provide members of the judiciary, legal practitioners and professors and students of the law in Bosnia and Herzegovina with the opportunity to advance their critical thinking and legal impartiality in relation to the influence of gender bias. The influence of gender bias, whether implicit or explicit, has been well documented in societies and legal practice across the world. It is therefore the unique charge of those whose responsibility it is to uphold the rule of law to insure that all individuals are equal before the law, and accountable to the law. It was my pleasure to review this excellent resource and it is my hope that it will be widely read and used by judges, practitioners and professors alike. Lynn Hecht Schafran Director, National Judicial Education Program, US Taking into consideration that law school curriculums are not gender sensitive enough and that the gender dimension of law, as well as stereotypes in creating and applying law, should not be overlooked, this Handbook is a useful piece of literature not only for students, but also for those who apply the law. The Handbook is written using an appropriate methodology, so that thematic units have clear aims, expected results, summaries and resources for additional research, which makes the Handbook valuable in the literature for legal education. Considering the choice of thematic units, applied methodology, additional resources and, finally, the authors who participated in the devel- opment of the Handbook, it is justifiable to say that the Handbook will be used in legal education and received with interest by law students. Previous academic experience shows that law students are interested in gender equality top- ics. Besides fulfilling students’ academic and research interests, the Handbook Gender Bias and the Law has multiple uses, not only as framework that offers information, but as a resource that opens up new perspectives in studying the most sensitive aspects of law concerning sexuality and sexual identity, family and inheritance issues, achieving property rights and issues of witnessing before courts. Legal education cannot remain blind to gender differences and the influence of stereotypes in creating laws, as well as the enjoyment and protection of rights. Apart from increasing the gender awareness of students, the gender sensitivity of professors should not be forgotten as a vehicle for improving good quality legal education in Bosnia and Herzegovina. This is the key reason for the Handbook, and its use in legal education fulfils the goals for which it was written. Professor Jasna Bakšić-Muftić Faculty of Law, University of Sarajevo 7 About the handbook and possibilities for its use Although often unnoticed or ignored, gender bias is prevalent in all legal systems across the world, and Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) is no exception. The consequences of gender-based bias and discrimination affect everyone, from legal professionals to women and men who seek to assert their rights through the justice system. Gender bias can affect the atmosphere in courtrooms, the presentation of cases, the decisions of judges, and even whether cases come to court. By reducing and eventually eliminating these prejudices, the justice system has the potential to become more effective, democratic, and fair. The Atlantic Initiative (AI) and the Geneva Centre for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces (DCAF) have been working with judges and prosecutors from across BiH to address the topic of gender bias since 2011, within the context of the Gender and Justice Reform Project. During project activities, judges and prosecutors have highlighted the importance of ensuring that the skills they have learned in identifying and overcoming manifestations of gender bias are also passed on to the next generation of legal professionals.

  • The Political in Bosnia and Herzegovina
    Hunger & Fury: The Political in Bosnia and Herzegovina Jasmin Mujanović A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Re- quirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Political Science York University Toronto, ON May 2016 © Jasmin Mujanović, 2016 Abstract This text is an attempt to (re)approach the process of political and social transfor- mation in Bosnia-Herzegovina (BiH) over the past century and a half through the prism of popular agency. The primary research question of this dissertation asks why given nearly uni- formly catastrophic social indicators across virtually all socio-economic categories there are so few instances of overt popular dissatisfaction (e.g. protests and/or energetic voter turnout) with the prevailing political order in BiH? In addressing this question through an analysis that straddles political theory, international relations, and political economy literatures I focus on the role played by the specific local variant(s) of the nation-state form in essentially depoliti- cizing the majority of the population in this polity. My central argument is that rather than creating the conditions for rational-legal public administration and multi-party competition, the state in BiH has historically served to deny political agency to would-be citizens. The state in BiH has actively sought to eliminate civil society, in other words, and that therefore the de- fining political and social crises in contemporary BiH must be understood in the context of nearly two centuries of this particular and peculiar state (and nation) formation process. I ar- gue that the historic evolution of the BiH polity has been characterized by a form of elastic authoritarianism; the process of seemingly persistent ideological mutation contrasted by static political and economic patterns.

  • The Unwanted Intellectual Elite: What Is Other Serbia?
    The Unwanted Intellectual Elite: What Is Other Serbia? By Andrija Mladenovic Submitted to Central European University Department of Political Science In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Political Science Supervisors: Professor Balazs Trencsenyi Professor Nenad Dimitrijevic CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary June 2018 Abstract Twenty-five years after the emergence of the Other Serbia, this intellectual circle still remains an unexplored topic. It is often used as a mean for political disqualification, due to the fact that their ideas were never analyzed with structural and historical determinants taken into consideration. In order to do this, and provide an answer to the broad question, what Other Serbia is, this research used interpretivist approach with special emphasis on close-reading and historical method. The historical and structural determinants were subsumed into four ‘critical junctures’, Belgrade’s student rebellion in 1968, the 1974 Constitution, the 1986 Memorandum and the war as a direct trigger for the emergence of this intellectual circle. The main ideas identified are the anti-war platform (normative and analytical part), the struggle against collectivism and the struggle for modernization. They chose particular ideas, radically different in every sense from those embraced by the dominant nationalist intellectuals. This happened due to the public isolation they were subjected to, the context of war, and the fact that they represented intellectual counter-elite that sought to delegitimize the dominant intellectual elite, their position, as well as the factual foundation they were building it upon.

The presidential elections ended on 5 January 2020 in the second round with Zoran Milanović as the winner with a relative majority of 52.66% of the vote. Milanović defeated the conservative incumbent Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović, who received 47.34% of the vote. This was a disappointment for her party, the Croatian Democratic Union (Hrvatska demokratska zajednica, HDZ), especially because of the upcoming intra-party and parliamentary elections. Milanović, a member of the main center-left political party in Croatia, the Social Democratic Party of Croatia (Socijaldemokratska partija Hrvatske, or SDP), and who had previously served as Prime Minister of Croatia (2011-2016), become the 5th president of Croatia.

    Davor Dukić, University of Zagreb, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Department of Croatian Language and Literature [email protected] The concentration camp of Goli Otok: More than or less than a cultural trauma?* The initial remarks This text is a work in progress and reports on the performed preliminary research whose purpose was to set up a working hypothesis and determine the scope of further research that will be continued in the next several years, probably after the termination of the SPECTRESS-project. The text is not historiographic even though the topic – the concentration camp for Stalin- supporters on the island of Goli Otok (1949–1956)1 – is an important part of modern Yugoslav history. Hence, the text is not meant to establish the historical facts about the island but to analyze narratives about it. The number of narrative sources is relatively small, but their canonic representability is quite well defined. The majority of analyzed historiographic texts, documentaries and movies are well-known works in their genre. Reliable answers to controversial questions about historical reality have a direct impact on the nature or the level of credibility of their interpretations because the number of utterances used to describe a historical event may be comprehensive, but is still limited. However, untangling of controversies and providing possible answers can only come from historiographers, which is beyond the scope of this text as it does not include examination of archival/primary sources. *** * This contribution was conceived as a large lecture for my colleagues in the SPECTRESS-project in Sao Paulo. The first and at the same time biggest part (Part 0–5) was written as a “preparatory material” for my lecture held on May 13, 2016 at the University of Sao Paulo.
