  • Serbia and Montenegro
    ATTACKS ON JUSTICE – SERBIA AND MONTENEGRO Highlights Serbia and Montenegro (the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia until February 2003) entered the process of democratic transition, the creation of a system based on the rule of law, much later than other former socialist countries. On 4 February 2003 the new state union of Serbia and Montenegro was proclaimed. Under the Constitutional Charter of the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro, there is only one instance of Serbia and Montenegro having a common judiciary – the Court of Serbia and Montenegro. Otherwise, each state – the Republic of Serbia and the Republic of Montenegro – has its own internal courts system. A set of important judicial reforms came into force on 1 March 2002 in the Republic of Serbia and in July 2002 amendments to these laws were made that violate the principle of separation of powers and the independence and impartiality of the judiciary. In Montenegro, several laws relating to the judiciary were passed or amended during 2003. On 19 March 2003, the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia dismissed 35 judges from office, including seven Supreme Court judges, amid accusations that the judiciary had failed to take tougher measures in dealing with remnants of the former regime as well as in prosecuting organized crime. The legal system in Serbia and Montenegro is still characterized by a number of contradictory and inconsistent regulations, resulting in legal insecurity. BACKGROUND On March 2002 officials of the Republic of Serbia and the Republic of Montenegro signed a procedural agreement for the restructuring of relations between both states in Belgrade, in the presence of the high representative of the EU,.

The ninth celebration of this Day was observed in 2016 by a large number of parliaments, governments, civil society organizations, international organizations and the IPU. Democracy 2030 was the theme chosen by the IPU for the 2016 edition of the International Day of Democracy. As at 23 September 2016, a total of 17 parliaments1 reported having taken some action to celebrate the International Day of Democracy. A summary of parliamentary activities is annexed to this report. The theme of Democracy 2030 was widely used and parliaments benefited from the theme’s significant flexibility. Descriptions of parliamentary events and all the materials produced by the IPU for the Day are available at www.ipu.org/idd. The United Nations followed the IPU’s lead and adopted Democracy and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development as its theme for the International Day. Key messages on Democracy 2030 were developed in the IPU press release for the Day, which was widely shared on social media. The theme questioned the ways in which parliaments will function in the future, how they will engage and involve youth, and the importance of democracy for the 2030 Agenda. The discussion on the future of democracy was highly relevant at a time when new technologies are enhancing the ability of parliaments to engage more directly with citizens.

This chaotic situation was combined with the arbitrary and repressive conduct of local Ottoman feudal lords. Migrations, interethnic contacts and mixing of populations as well as an intensified Islamization process caused by a number of factors greatly complicated the situation. Albanian northward penetration along the Lim and into Pešter as well as the expan- sion of the Vasojevići tribe into the Upper Lim valley added to the complexity of the ethnic and demographic picture of the region. Perpetual rebellions against the Otto- man occupation eventually led to the liberation of the Serbian Orthodox population of these areas. Keywords: Stara Raška (Old Rascia), Brda (Highlands), Old Herzegovina, Ottoman Empire, rebellions, migrations Introduction or the sake of clarity let us first define some terms used in this article.
