Staatlichkeitsmodelle für die politische Neuordnung von Bosnien und Herzegowina

Abstract

The different ideas about the future form of the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina are often in irreconcilable opposition to reality and the social possibilities of the country. The first prerequisite for the creation of self-sustaining democratic state is the acceptance of the reality of living in a divided society and enabling the free territorial and political organization of the three main ethnic communities. With the model of political reorganization of the country represented in this text all three ethnic communities within the same state would finally win objective characteristics by which they can identify themselves as modern nations, which would allow the simultaneous development of dual loyalty of the citizens of BiH: the loyalty to their nation and to the common state. All models and policies that divide the country and want to incorporation some of his territorial entity into neighboring countries, as well as those who see the country as the state only a one nation, are unacceptable, because they work in the long run against the same country. A stable BiH is only possible as a state of three constituent nations and all its citizens. Any solution that does not accept this fact will lead to centuries of tensions, wars and revisionism.
