  • A Federalism for Bosnia
    A Federalism for Bosnia 14 January 2004, Transitions Online (www.tol.cz) The European Stability Initiative offers a thoughtful, though not radical, solution for reorganizing Bosnia. But can it work? by Valery Perry SARAJEVO, Bosnia and Herzegovina--The recent proposal from the European Stability Initiative (ESI) may not be as radical as its enticing title suggests, but it does deserve considered thought for its strengths and potential challenges to implementation. In “Making Federalism Work--A Radical Proposal for Practical Reform” (8 January 2004), ESI’s writers suggest that BiH be administratively organized in 12 cantons: the 10 cantons that currently comprise the largely Bosniak and Croat Federation entity, plus the Serb-dominated Republika Srpska entity and Brcko District. This would result in a more typical structure of governance based on three layers of government: the central government, 12 cantons, and their municipalities. This proposal, while useful for its straightforward nature, is not however, an entirely new concept, for its essence is based on the removal of the level of entity governance--in the Federation by dissolving the Federation structures entirely, and in the RS by establishing the current territory of the entity as one large canton that is equal in autonomy, rights and responsibilities as the other 11 proposed cantons. The two entity-levels of bureaucracy and expense have always been the problem in developing streamlined and logical governmental structures in BiH. They are also the unit of government with no parallel in other developed democracies. Calls for the disappearance of the entity structure of governance have come in various forms in the past: The Party for BiH’s (SBiH) 2000 campaign slogan “For a BiH without Entities” was perhaps the most blatant.

    Operation Performance Evaluation Review Environmental Analysis & Audit and Assistance with Restructuring - Regional Railway - Bosnia and Herzegovina (Public Sector Technical Cooperation Operations) September 2009 ab0cd OPERATION PERFORMANCE EVALUATION REVIEW (OPER) PREFACE This Evaluation Report The subject of this Operation Performance Evaluation Review (OPER) are the public sector Technical Cooperation (TC) operations “Environmental Analysis & Audit” and “Assistance with Restructuring”, which involved, on commitment basis, a funding of €30,000 and €300,000, respectively. The funding was provided under the Italian Central European Initiative (CEI) facility as part of the Bank’s Technical Cooperation Funds Programme (TCFP). The TCs were meant to facilitate the Bank’s loan “Bosnia and Herzegovina: Regional Railway Project” (BDS05-175), the Bank’s second loan in this transport sub-sector in the country. The OPER has been executed by Wolfgang Gruber, Senior Evaluation Manager. Josip Polic, Principal Banker of the Resident Office (RO) in Sarajevo (Bosnia and Herzegovina) prepared the self-evaluation (TC) Project Completion Report (PCR) for the second TC; a PCR for the first-mentioned TC is not available. The operation team and other relevant Bank staff commented on an early draft of this report. The Basic Data Sheet on page [iii] of this report and the PCR in Appendix 4 are complementary to this OPER and designed to be read together. Information on the TC operations was obtained from relevant teams and departments of the Bank and its files as well as from external sector and industry sources. Fieldwork was carried out in June 2009. Appendix 1 presents a list of contacts. EvD would like to take this opportunity to thank those who contributed to the production of this report.

It brings together individuals and institutions from Bosnia and Herzegovina and abroad committed to the creation of a harmonious and united society, based on dialogue, trust, and respect. It advocates best practice in the fields of human rights protection, the rule of law, and democracy. IFB members are committed to the promotion of Bosnia and Herzegovina as a plural society with a very rich political and cultural heritage, a heritage we believe to be a significant resource for the development of a unified polity exemplifying the best aspects of the European spirit. IFB members believe such development requires a new intellectual community capable of analysing social and political behaviour and views and of developing the new understandings required for trust to be restored across society. IFB approaches these goals in two ways. The first involves the deconstruction of the divisive political and social ideologies based on ethnicity, religion, and other exclusive world-views which have been underlying causes of mistrust, intolerance, and social exclusion and major generators of social tension and conflict in the region. The second involves the systematic development and promotion of a new synthesis for Bosnia and Herzegovina based on a vision of social development free from fear, hostilities, and tensions.

  • Dragan Komadina: “A Short History of Croatian Theatre in Bosnia and Herzegovina”
    Croatian Studies Review 9 (2013) Dragan Komadina: “A Short history of Croatian theatre in Bosnia and Herzegovina” Dragan Komadina Faculty of Performing Arts University of Sarajevo Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegiovina [email protected] Abstract The history of Croatian theatre in Bosnia and Herzegovina cannot be separated from the Western European theatre – from poorly documented ancient to somewhat stronger and more visible medieval influences. However, the development of Croatian drama and theatre in Bosnia and Herzegovina, interrupted during the Ottoman occupation, was renewed in the spirit of national revival during the 19th century, first in Mostar, and then in Sarajevo. The peak of the theatrical development was reached in the late 1990s, when the Croatian National Theatre was established in Mostar. It was the first theatrical institution with the prefix Croatian. Over the course of nearly half a millennium, Croatian dramatic works succeeded in not only preserving the national identity, but also in making a significant contribution to intercultural exchanges in this part of Europe through the rich and stormy political past of the Balkans. Key words: Croatians, Bosna and Herzegovina, theatre, Croatian drama in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatian National Theatre in Mostar 98 Croatian Studies Review 9 (2013) The history of theatre in Herzegovina could be extended to the primordial image from the cave of Badanj at the locality of Borojevići in the surroundings of Stolac: the indigenous inhabitants of present day Herzegovina gather round a fire telling stories. One of them unexpectedly rises to conjure up the tale of the hunt so that it is convincing for the audience.

  • This Is How It All Began... Learn More About the Centre Of
    Centre of Cultivating Dialogue 1997 – 2016 THIS IS HOW IT ALL BEGAN... Back in 1997, a handful of enthusiasts initiated a program one hardly could have predicted for bright future considering the political, economic and educational situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Differences and divisions in the country were much more pronounced than today, which was especially noticed in educational program. However, sixteen years later the program can boast with a number of activities and participants to be envied by many, even most respected international programs. The first teachers to be involved in the program could not have even imagined they would be a part of the team that would participate in activities like seminars, meetings, round table discussions, and summer camps, debate activities in schools, TV debates, and world championships. Even less could they imagine that these activities would become a matter of tradition, one that future generations can look up to and admire. Since then more than 350 high school teachers from 75 Bosnian towns were educated through, on average, somewhat less than 150 activities per year. The program itself was obviously not created for teachers, but first and foremost for the benefit of young people in BiH. The goal has been to educate and train young people in debating skills and consequently in democracy and tolerance, which can be applied daily. This is Centre of Cultivating Dialogue, a program which sets debate as a contemporary method of education, through direct cooperation of all participants and constant rhetoric, cross examination, argumentation, research exercises… The total number of people involved in the aforementioned activities has grown to 33.000 and all of them have at least some experience they use today.
