The Action is part of the Global Campus of the Regional Master Programmes and Diplomas managed by EIUC. The contents of this publication are the sole responsibility of the University of Sarajevo, Center for Interdisciplinary Studies and can in no way be taken to reflect the views of the European Union or of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.” III PREFACE The European Regional Master’s Program in Democracy and Human Rights in South-East Europe is established through the joint efforts of eleven participating universities and research centres and is coordinated by the University of Sarajevo, Centre for Interdisciplinary Studies of the and the Institute for the Central-Eastern and Balkan Europe of the University of Bologna. The Program is an unique educational activity that promotes the development and realisation of a generation of young people from the region of South-East Europe and the European Union. Its structure is defined in a way emphasising among its participants, both students and Faculty, a shared consciousness that the development of democracy and human rights in the region depends on a plural interdependence of factors. All of the relevant issues in South-East Europe, stability, democracy, and development are mutually correlated and influence each other which give this common regional effort in addressing them more chance of success in a context of inclusive policies and in the framework of a wider European integration process. Much of the foundation for the establishment of the European Regional Master’s Programme had been laid down in the mid-1990s when a team of prominent Academic Faculty gathered around the idea of organizing region specific educational activities. Its first practical embodiment was the Cervia International Summer School, which started in 1995, and was supported by the European Commission. For the first five years of its existence, it provided the necessary background of specific teaching and research experience that subsequently moved to the region of South-East Europe once conditions allowed. The Master program is currently co-financed by the European Union (via EIUC thought the Global Campus Network) and the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs through its DGCS/UTL Offices. Its structure and academic content reflect on topical issues common for the region of South-East Europe and account for the wider conceptual framework of the process of European integration. Each year the Programme produces around 30 young graduates organized in an active Alumni Association (ACIPS) who find employment in national governments, national and international governmental and non- governmental organizations, think tanks, research institutes and universities within Europe and beyond. What follows are the Awarded six Master Theses of the academic year 2013/2014. The selection criteria adopted by the Academic Faculty of V the Program include originality and relevance of the topic and the author’s argumentation, structure and clarity of the exposition, innovative approach and skillful academic engagement. They are an accessible material, which is a useful read for students of human rights and for all who are interested in the issues emerging from the processes of their protection and violation in the region of South-East Europe. We would like to use this opportunity to congratulate our graduates on successfully completing this Program and wholeheartedly thank the staff for their immeasurable support and enthusiasm for the past 13 years.

  • Regime Decline and Civic Alternatives in Bosnia-Herzegovina
    Alfredo SASSO The ‘Bosnian Silence’? Regime Decline and Civic Alternatives in Bosnia-Herzegovina THE ‘BOSNIAN SILENCE’? REGIME DECLINE AND CIVIC ALTERNATIVES IN BOSNIA-HERZEGOVINA (1989-1990) Alfredo SASSO1 Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) Spain UDK: 32(497.6)”1989/1990” 329.71(497.6)”1989/1990” Izvorni znanstveni rad Primljeno: 15.01.2015. Prihvaćeno: 13.02.2015. Summary The following article aims to analyse the alternative, pro- Yugoslav and pro-democratizing options in Bosnia-Herzegovina, from 1989 to mid-1990, until the beginning of the multi-party electoral campaign. The article focuses on three initiatives: the reformist wing of the League of Communists (SKBiH), the Alliance of Socialist Youth (SSOBiH) and the Association for the Yugoslav Democratic Initiative (UJDI). Particular attention is paid to their proposals on the main issues of the political crisis, as well as their conflicting relation with the declining communist regime in Bosnia-Herzegovina. The SKBiH, notwithstanding its non-national and pro-Yugoslav stance, had a different approach on other issues, especially on political pluralism. The article points out that, on the eve of the 1990 elections, the competition within the non-national camp decisively weakened a pro-Yugoslav integrative option. Keywords: Bosnia-Herzegovina, Yugoslavia, non-national movements, League of Communists, UJDI, SSOBiH, Bosnian Initiative 1 PhD Candidate, Dpt. of Modern and Contemporary History, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) / Institut Català Internacional per la Pau (ICIP).

  • The Political in Bosnia and Herzegovina
    Hunger & Fury: The Political in Bosnia and Herzegovina Jasmin Mujanović A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Re- quirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Political Science York University Toronto, ON May 2016 © Jasmin Mujanović, 2016 Abstract This text is an attempt to (re)approach the process of political and social transfor- mation in Bosnia-Herzegovina (BiH) over the past century and a half through the prism of popular agency. The primary research question of this dissertation asks why given nearly uni- formly catastrophic social indicators across virtually all socio-economic categories there are so few instances of overt popular dissatisfaction (e.g. protests and/or energetic voter turnout) with the prevailing political order in BiH? In addressing this question through an analysis that straddles political theory, international relations, and political economy literatures I focus on the role played by the specific local variant(s) of the nation-state form in essentially depoliti- cizing the majority of the population in this polity. My central argument is that rather than creating the conditions for rational-legal public administration and multi-party competition, the state in BiH has historically served to deny political agency to would-be citizens. The state in BiH has actively sought to eliminate civil society, in other words, and that therefore the de- fining political and social crises in contemporary BiH must be understood in the context of nearly two centuries of this particular and peculiar state (and nation) formation process. I ar- gue that the historic evolution of the BiH polity has been characterized by a form of elastic authoritarianism; the process of seemingly persistent ideological mutation contrasted by static political and economic patterns.

  • Corruption in Bosnia and Herzegovina's Higher Education
    Making of a Voiceless Youth: Corruption in Bosnia and Herzegovina’s Higher Education Amra Sabic-El-Rayess Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Amra Sabic-El-Rayess All rights reserved ABSTRACT MAKING OF A VOICELESS YOUTH: CORRUPTION IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA’S HIGHER EDUCATION Amra Sabic-El-Rayess This research has analyzed a set of structural elements, procedures, and behaviors within Bosnia and Herzegovina’s (thereafter, “Bosnia” or “B&H”) higher education that have jointly created an encouraging space for the increasing and self-serving utilization of higher education by the country’s post-war elite. Of the particular interest is this elite’s impact on the forms of educational corruption, which have shifted away from standard bribing processes and moved toward more complex favor reciprocation networks. This process has ensured that today’s corruption is perceived as a norm in Bosnia’s higher education. Its prevalence has disrupted existing social mobility mechanisms and created a duality in the social mobility process so that the unprivileged still work hard to obtain their degrees while those with social connections are reliant on Turner’s (1960) sponsorship model. The analysis goes beyond dissecting corruption’s impact on modes of social mobility by redefining Hirschman’s (1970) notions of voice, exit, and loyalty within higher education and expanding his theoretical framework to adequately capture and understand the unique set of coping mechanisms that has emerged within Bosnia’s corrupt higher education. I reinterpret the voice mechanism that Hirschman sees as a political tool capable of bringing about change as, ironically, severely diminished in its power when observed within a corrupt environment.

  • Waiting for a Miracle Is the Most Conservative Option
    Waiting for a miracle? The politics of constitutional change in Bosnia and Herzegovina February 3rd 2004 Since ESI released its proposal for a process of constitutional change in Bosnia and Herzegovina three weeks ago,1 a lively public debate has emerged. There have been extensive discussions on Bosnian television and in newspapers and magazines in Sarajevo, Banja Luka and Mostar. The reactions have not divided along traditional ethnic lines, with supporters and critics appearing on all sides. This new, intense debate on constitutional reform has been noted in the international press (International Herald Tribune, 13 January and 3 February; the Swiss Neue Zürcher Zeitung, 21 January).2 Most importantly, there has been an immediate reaction from the very politicians in Bosnia who alone would be able to initiate a process of constitutional change. One of the main governing parties in the Federation, the HDZ, has embraced the vision of a three- layered Bosnian Federation (based on its existing ten cantons, the Republika Srpska and the District of Brcko) as its own and has prepared draft legislation to initiate a process of step-by-step reform. Publicly distancing himself from calls for a third entity, Barisa Colak, HDZ president and state government minister, has suggested that the Federation could be abolished within three years. As the HDZ enters into discussions with its principal coalition partners, there is now a real possibility that a process of negotiated yet fundamental constitutional change could begin in 2004. The ESI proposal for abolishing the Federation and creating a simplified, federal structure of twelve units was first introduced on 8 January by the Sarajevo weekly BIH Dani, which described it as “a brilliant idea for getting out of the post-war constitutional blind alley which paralyses progress.” It received immediate support from the Federation president, Niko Lozancic (Veþernji List, 12 January 2004).
