Bulletin n. 1/2005 - December 2005 List of contents Section A) The theory and practise of the federal states and multi-level systems of government Subsection 1.The theory of federation Hayden Robert M. "Democracy" without a Demos? The Bosnian Constitutional Experiment and the Intentional Construction of Nonfunctioning States in East European Politics and Societies, Volume 19, Number 2, May , pp. 226-259 The social science literature on ethnically divided states is huge and varied, but suggestions for constitutional solutions are strangely uniform: "loose federations" of ethnically defined ministates, with minimal central authority that must act by consensus and thus cannot act at all on issues that are contested rather than consented. In Bosnia, the political system mandated by the international High Representative suffer the same structural flaws that were used to make the former Yugoslav federation and the Socialist Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina unworkable. Similarly nonviable systems were proposed in 1994 to 1995 for Croatia and in 1998 to 1999 for Kosovo and recently for Cyprus and for Iraq. This article analyzes the paradox of mandating consensus-based politics in ethnically divided states, inclusion in which does not have the consent of most members of at least one group. -------- Section A) The theory and practise of the federal states and multi-level systems of government Subsection 1.The theory of federation Shivdeep Singh Grewal A cosmopolitan Europe by constitutional means?

It was compiled from a wide range of information sources, including syllabuses of member countries' programs, a series of questionnaires, meetings of economics experts, personal interviews with teachers and administrators, and the study of background literature. The chapter topics include the role of economics in education; the aims of teaching economics; the structure of the syllabus; economics-within an educational strategy; secondary termination and university entrance; methods of teaching economics; training teachers; assessing the candidates; and a challenging future for economics.
