M.A. March 2006. Communication Studies History and Development of the Communication Regulatory Agency in Bosnia and Herzegovina 1998 – 2005 (247 pp.) Director of Thesis: Gregory Newton During the war against Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) over 250,000 people were killed, and countless others were injured and lost loved ones. Almost half of the B&H population was forced from their homes. The ethnic map of the country was changed drastically and overall damage was estimated at US $100 billion. Experts agree that misuse of the media was largely responsible for the events that triggered the war and kept it going despite all attempts at peace. This study examines and follows the efforts of the international community to regulate the broadcast media environment in postwar B&H. One of the greatest challenges for the international community in B&H was the elimination of hate language in the media. There was constant resistance from the local ethnocentric political parties in the establishment of the independent media regulatory body and implementation of new standards. -

Of course, the media always play a key role in providing quality information to the general public, with the aim of better understanding all the benefits that these Chinese initiatives can bring to Bosnia and Herzegovina. Also, the media can have a great influence on decision makers by creating a positive environment and by accurate and objective information. Therefore, when it comes to media articles related to these topics, it is important to look at the situation objectively and professionally. The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of the media treatment of the Belt and Road Initiative and Platform "17+1" in Bosnia and Herzegovina, quantitative measuring of the total number of media releases dealing with these topics in the media with editorial board or visible editorial policy, and their qualitative analysis, as well as the analysis of additional, special relevant articles. -

Bosnia & Herzegovina
Negative trends associated with the media sphere in previous years persist, such as the media’s low level of professionalism, poor protection and conditions for journalists, a weak and oversaturated media market, an unsustainable public media service, a fragmented media scene, and political influence. BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA 16 EUROPE & EURASIA MEDIA SUSTAINABILITY INDEX 2014 introduction OVERALL SCORE: 2.04 BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) did not show signs of political or economic stabilization in 2013. The governing political parties avoided focusing on substantive reforms and implementing international standards. In April, Ba new political party launched—the Democratic Front, led by Željko Komšić, the Croat member of the B&H tripartite presidency. In the same month, the president of the Federation of B&H, Živko Budimir, was arrested on the accusation of taking bribes to approve amnesties but was released in May due to lack of evidence. In June 2013, public protests in front of Sarajevo’s parliament building and in other cities in B&H highlighted the lack of regulation of citizen IDs for newborns. The citizen initiative across B&H, although holding a promise of revolutionary change, ended as an unsuccessful bid to change politicians’ corruption, inequality, and incompetence. Finally, at the beginning of November, the B&H House of Peoples, in an emergency session and without debate, adopted the proposed amendments and changes to the law on ID numbers. The fact that the protests were organized through online platforms and social media illustrated new media’s growing influence in socially mobilizing the country. However, Serb and Croat parliamentarians framed the protests as an ethnically driven threat to their security and refused to attend parliamentary sessions for several weeks. -
Media Intervention and Transformation of the Journalism Model in Bosnia and Herzegovina Amer Džihana*
Medij. istraž. (god. 17, br. 1-2) 2011. (97-118) IZVORNI ZNANSTVENI RAD UDK: 070(497.6) Primljeno: 23. srpnja 2011. Media Intervention and Transformation of the Journalism Model in Bosnia and Herzegovina Amer Džihana* SUMMARY Transformation of a journalistic model in Bosnia and Herzegovina is a long-term challenge both for international organizations engaged in media reform and for local media professionals who strive to establish a model according to developed democratic countries. Although enormous efforts have been made to establish a model that embraces the values of impartial, correct and fair reporting, patriotic journalism - based primarily on the principle “us against them” - remains as the norm for reporting on a great number of social events. It is believed that patri- otic journalism is the essential journalistic model when reporting about contro- versial social events where opposite perspectives of ethno-political elites occur. This claim is supported by the results of analysis of reporting about the trial of Radovan Karadžić, the former president of Republika Srpska before the Inter- national Tribunal for War Crimes. The reasons for the survival of this model are found in non-reformed political spheres that generate social divisions. Key words: media intervention, news, journalistic culture, patriotic journalism, ethnocentrism in media Introduction In spite of the comprehensive media intervention in post-war Bosnia and Herze- govina (BiH) to overcome segregation in communication among the three peoples in BiH, few believe that media represent reliable partners when mitigating the ex- * Amer Džihana, MA, Director for Research and Advocacy, Internews Network Bosnia and Herzegovina, Sarajevo, BiH, PhD candidate at the Faculty of Political Sciences in Sarajevo. -

Analysis of the Media Reporting Corruption In
ANALYSIS OF THE MEDIA REPORTING CORRUPTION IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA (15 -28. August, 2011.)

While analyzing the media excerpts, attention was aimed toward determining the qualifications of the mentioned corruptive activities, i.e., the way they were mentioned and interpreted – who is the one that points out to the examples of corruption, who interprets them, and who is named as the perpetrator of these actions. The analysis included 135 texts and features from 9 daily newspapers (Dnevni avaz, Dnevni list, Euro Blic, Fokus, Glas Srpske, Nezavisne novine, Oslobodjenje, Press, Vecernji list), 2 weekly papers (Dani, Slobodna Bosna), 3 television stations (news programme of BHT, FTV, and RTRS, with two features from OBN and TV SA) and 7 web sites (24sata.info, bih.x.info, biznis.ba, depo.ba, dnevnik-ba, Sarajevo-x.com, zurnal.info) in the period between August 15 and 28, 2011. The excerpts were cross-referenced with each date during the analyzed period in order to estimate their frequency in newspapers, assuming that the frequency is one of the indicators of importance of the topic of corruption. -

Geografski položaj i opšti podaci Opština se nalazi na sjeveroistoku Republike Srpske-BiH. Locirana je u središnjem dijelu toka rijeke Drine na koju se prislanja u dužini od 45 km, od čega je oko 23km Perućačko jezero, HE Bajina Bašta. Graniči sa opštinama Bratunac, Milići, Rogatica i Višegrad u BiH, i opštinom Bajina Bašta u Republici Srbiji. Prije rata u okviru regionalno-teritorijalnog uređenja u Republici Bosni i Hercegovini, Srebrenica je pripadala Tuzlanskom okrugu. Tabela 1.

Saobraćajna povezanost Opština se ne nalazi na glavnim regionalnim saobraćajnim koridorima. Pojedini djelovi opštine su bolje povezani sa Republikom Srbijom i sa drugim područjima Bosne i Hercegovine, nego sa urbanim centrom. Do opštine postoje samo putne komunikacije. Prema tome opština Srebrenica spada u saobraćajno slabo povezanu opštinu. Srebrenica je pored regionalnih putnih pravaca (Bratunac-Skelani, Bratunac-Srebrenica-Skelani i Zeleni Jadar-Milići) prije rata imala izrazito razvijenu putno-komunikacionu mrežu makadamskih lokalnih - opštinskih seoskih puteva, koji su se koristili za potrebe stanovništva, turizma, lovnog turizma i privrede. -
