All participants in the election campaign in the period from the day of calling the elections till the day of proclamation of the final results were generically named „political entities‟, which we may, in terms of the Law on Financing of Political Activates2, differentiate into political parties, coalitions, and groups of citizens. Every political entity that participated in the election campaign, whether it nominated a candidate or filed an electoral list, had the following obligations in terms of the Law: Obligation to open a special-purpose account for funds raised to finance every election campaign, and to pay all election campaign expenses from that account (Article 24); Obligation to appoint a person responsible for lawful financing of political campaigns and submission of a report, as well as to inform the Agency about the appointment of said person within three days of his/her appointment (Article 31); Obligation to submit to the Agency a report on election campaign costs containing data on the origin, amount, and structure of raised and spent funds from both public and private sources; to submit the report in a form, whose content is established by the Rulebook on Contribution and Asset Records, Annual Financial Report, and the Report on Election Campaign Expenses of a Political Entity3 (“Official Gazette of the RS”, nos. 72/11 and 25/12), in a way stipulated by the Law and Rulebook and in compliance with the time limit of 30 days from the day of publication of final election results for electronic submission plus a written report 8 days after the electronic submission; 1 In the city of Belgrade Assembly and assemblies of other 22 towns of the republic of Serbia (Valjevo, Vranje, Zajeĉar, Zrenjanin, Jagodina, Kragujevac, Kraljevo, Kruševac, Leskovac, Loznica, Niš, Novi Paraz, Novi Sad, Panĉevo, Poţarevac, Smederevo, Sombor, Sremska Mitrovica, Subotica, Uţice, Ĉaĉak and Šabac), Municipal Assemblies (except for AranĊelovac, Bor, Kosjerić, Kovin, Negotin, Odţak and Vrbas) and City Municipla Assemblies (except for Voţdovac and Zemun). 2 “Official Gayette of the Republic of Serbia”, No. 43/11. 3 “Official Gayette of the Republic of Serbia”, Nos. 72/11 and 25/12. 5 Obligation to, upon the Agency‟s request, submit all data, during the campaign and afterwards, needed by the Agency so as to conduct all tasks related to oversight of election campaign financing (Article 32). The Anti-Corruption Agency, whose competence comprises (Article 5 of the Law on the ACA) the tasks stipulated by the Law on Financing of Political Activities, which regulates source and mode of financing of political activities of political parties, coalitions and group of citizen, has the following rights (Articles 27-29 and 32-34): Right to have direct and free access to bookkeeping records and documentation and financial reports of both political entity and endowment and foundation founded by political party; Right to send a request to a political entity to submit all requested documents and information within a time limit not exceeding 15 days (during the election campaign, not exceeding 3 days); Right to send a request to any authority of the Republic of Serbia, Autonomous Province, and local self-government units, banks, as well as to natural persons and legal entities financing political entities, or which on their behalf and for their account provided certain service, asking them to send information, in which process all prohibitions and restrictions regarding submission of information stipulated by other regulations are not implemented; Possibility to engage relevant experts and institutions; Possibility to, after financial report oversight, send a request to the State Audit Institution to audit the reports in accordance with the law regulating competencies of the SAI; Right to organize independent monitoring of election campaigns within the election campaign expenses oversight tasks, for which funds from the budget of the Republic of Serbia are allocated to the Agency; Right to adopt by-laws regulating the content and manner of keeping of records on assets and contributions, as well as those regulating the content of the annual financial statement and report on election campaign expenses. Furthermore, the Agency was granted certain authorities in case of violation of the Law (Articles 35- 40 and Articles 42-43): To impose a warning measure on a political entity if in the oversight procedure it establishes some irregularities that might be corrected; To file a motion to institute a criminal or misdemeanor proceedings; 6 To, after the start of a criminal or misdemeanor proceedings, send a request to the ministry competent for financial affairs, or the relevant province authority, or local self-government authority, to issue a decision on temporary suspension of transfer of funds from public sources to a political entity until a final decision in the criminal or misdemeanor proceedings is rendered; To, in case of conviction for a criminal offense or if a political party or a responsible person in a political entity is convicted for a misdemeanor, issue a decision on the loss of rights to public funds for financing of regular work of a political entity for the next calendar year. The decision also established the amount of funds to be suspended. 7 1. DATA USED FOR THE ANALYSIS AND OVERSIGHT OF FINANCIAL REPORTS 1.1. Collection of data during the election monitoring campaign 1.1.1. Concept and structure of monitoring The new Law on Financing of Political Activities, which entered into force in June 2011, introduced an important novelty when it comes to an oversight of the money flows through the transactions of political entities. This complex and responsible task was entrusted to the Anti-Corruption Agency. The first step undertaken by the Agency to ensure financial transparency in the campaign was through the organization of a monitoring process in 2012 so as to monitor the activities of political entities during their campaign for the president of the Republic, MPs, deputies, and councilors. This process is very important in the period of election cycles, when the dynamic of financial transactions of political entities is at the highest level. In November 2011, the Agency initiated all preparations for the monitoring processes. In the same month, the Agency adopted a Rulebook on Election Campaign Monitors, regulating organization, competences, rights, obligations, terms, and manner of selection of monitors for the election campaign cost oversight procedure.

  • Freedom in the World - Serbia (2010)
    Page 1 of 5 Print Freedom in the World - Serbia (2010) Political Rights Score: 2 * Capital: Belgrade Civil Liberties Score: 2 * Status: Free Population: 7,322,000 Explanatory Note The ratings through 2002 are for the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, of which Serbia was a part, and those from 2003 through 2005 are for the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro. Kosovo is examined in a separate report. Ratings Change Serbia’s political rights rating improved from 3 to 2 due to the consolidation of a stable multiparty system after several rounds of elections in the post-Milosevic period. Overview The parliament in November approved a new statute regulating the autonomy of the northern province of Vojvodina, ending a long political debate over the issue and demonstrating the effectiveness of the Democratic Party–led government elected in 2008. The country also made progress in its relations with the European Union, securing visa-free travel rights and the implementation of a trade agreement in December. However, press freedom groups criticized a media law adopted in August, and tensions involving the ethnic Albanian population in the Presevo Valley remained a problem. Serbia was recognized as an independent state in 1878 after several centuries under Ottoman rule. It formed the core of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes proclaimed in 1918. After World War II, Serbia became a constituent republic of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, under the communist rule of Josip Broz Tito. Within the boundaries of the Serbian republic as drawn at that time were two autonomous provinces: the largely Albanian-populated Kosovo in the south, and Vojvodina, with a significant Hungarian minority, in the north.

Abstract Detailed distribution pattern of colubrid snakes in Serbia is still inadequately described, despite the long historical study. In this paper, we provide accurate distribution of seven species, with previously published and newly accumulated faunistic records compiled. Comparative analysis of faunas among all Balkan countries showed that Serbian colubrid fauna is among the most distinct (together with faunas of Slovenia and Romania), due to small number of species. Zoogeographic analysis showed high chorotype diversity of Serbian colubrids: seven species belong to six chorotypes. South-eastern Serbia (Pčinja River valley) is characterized by the presence of all colubrid species inhabiting our country, and deserves the highest conservation status at the national level.

  • Liberal Parties in Europe and Human Rights Emphasis
    LIBERAL PARTIES IN EUROPE AND HUMAN RIGHTS EMPHASIS by ŞEYMA KOÇ Submitted to the Graduate School of Social Sciences in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Sabancı University August 2020 LIBERAL PARTIES IN EUROPE AND HUMAN RIGHTS EMPHASIS Approved by: Assoc. Prof Özge Kemahlıoğlu . (Thesis Supervisor) Prof. Ali Çarkoğlu . Asst. Prof. Mert Moral . Date of Approval: August 5, 2020 ŞEYMA KOÇ 2020 c All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT LIBERAL PARTIES IN EUROPE AND HUMAN RIGHTS EMPHASIS ŞEYMA KOÇ POLITICAL SCIENCE M.A. THESIS, AUGUST 2020 Thesis Supervisor: Assoc.Prof. Özge Kemahlıoğlu Keywords: Political Parties, Liberal Party Family, Human Rights Emphasis, Economic Conditions Liberal parties are mostly neglected by the literature on political parties despite their central role in establishing European liberal democracies. This thesis aims to contribute to the contemporary literature on liberal parties by examining 33 Eu- ropean democracies and covering a time period including observations of 75 years. The empirical analysis shows that liberal parties are distinguishable from the other party families on their emphasis on human rights and freedom. Then, this thesis investigates the impact of economic conditions on liberal parties’ relative emphasis on human rights and freedom. The findings illustrate that higher levels of unemploy- ment rate decrease liberal parties’ relative emphasis on human rights and freedom and increase their relative emphasis on economic issues. Its effect on the relative em- phasis on human rights and freedom issue and economic issues is substantive when the distributions of the dependent variables are considered. This finding may demon- strate the liberal parties’ responsiveness to changing needs of the electorate and a value change in politics too.

  • Serbia in 2001 Under the Spotlight
    1 Human Rights in Transition – Serbia 2001 Introduction The situation of human rights in Serbia was largely influenced by the foregoing circumstances. Although the severe repression characteristic especially of the last two years of Milosevic’s rule was gone, there were no conditions in place for dealing with the problems accumulated during the previous decade. All the mechanisms necessary to ensure the exercise of human rights - from the judiciary to the police, remained unchanged. However, the major concern of citizens is the mere existential survival and personal security. Furthermore, the general atmosphere in the society was just as xenophobic and intolerant as before. The identity crisis of the Serb people and of all minorities living in Serbia continued. If anything, it deepened and the relationship between the state and its citizens became seriously jeopardized by the problem of Serbia’s undefined borders. The crisis was manifest with regard to certain minorities such as Vlachs who were believed to have been successfully assimilated. This false belief was partly due to the fact that neighbouring Romania had been in a far worse situation than Yugoslavia during the past fifty years. In considerably changed situation in Romania and Serbia Vlachs are now undergoing the process of self identification though still unclear whether they would choose to call themselves Vlachs or Romanians-Vlachs. Considering that the international factor has become the main generator of change in Serbia, the Helsinki Committee for Human Rights in Serbia believes that an accurate picture of the situation in Serbia is absolutely necessary. It is essential to establish the differences between Belgrade and the rest of Serbia, taking into account its internal diversities.

    Weekly Review // March 14 - 20 SOUTHEASTERN EUROPE Observatory The Southeastern Europe Intelligence Unit is formed by an ambitious group of young scientists which focuses on the political, economic, defense and security developments in the wider region of Southeastern Europe. Our main task is the “Southeastern Europe Observatory” to become a credible, detailed, objective and flexible “tool” of information and short analysis in the hands of the researcher and the professional who is interested in the current affairs of this sensitive and crucial part of the European continent. In each weekly review, you will find the most significant news of the previous week in the region. SPECIAL COUNTRY REPORT: Turkey Kurds clash with police at Newroz - a cultural or a political suppression? very year March 21, millions of Kurds across the world celebrate Newroz, which refers to the beginning of the New Year for the Kurdish people. Meaning ‘the new day’ in Kurdish language, Newroz represents the beginning of Spring and the starts of the New EYear. Members of the pro-Kurdish party BDP (Peace and Democracy Party) applied for permission to spread their fests to the days of 17-21 March as they have been doing in previous years. However, this year, the Ministry of the Interior denied permission for the earlier start of Newroz celebrations before the 21st, strictly prohibiting any activity on March 18. The ban arrived soon after the president of the BDP, Selahattin Demirtas declared the official celebrations shall take place on Sunday the 18th, instead of Monday 21st. Despite the bans, Newroz celebrations took place in Van, Hakkari, Siirt, Mus, Diyarbakır, Instabul and Ankara.
