Abstract

This study inquires the issues of multi-party democracy in Bosnia and Herzegovina (Hereinafter: B&H), the role of the International community, as well as its contribution to the overall institutionalization of ethnic identities in B&H. The author critically reviews theoretical and practical issues from the Dayton Peace Accords (1995) to Prud Agreement (2008) and attempts to indicate the necessity of transformation of the Constitution of B&H (Annex 4 to the Dayton Peace Accords) implementation of which further disintegrates and divides Bosnian society. The ethnic engineering in B&H displayed itself as a dangerously attractive for its simplicity, yet disastrous, since it results in an authoritarian regime that could be confronted only by constant emancipatory efforts.
