Bosnia and Herzegovina: From War to Negative Peace

Through the history Bosnia and Herzegovina, as a territory and as a country, has been very unstable and full of ethnical diversity ; nowadays not much has changed. It is a new century, there is a new political ideology and new structures ; however, the protagonists still have different ethnical backgrounds. Changing the ideology in the area of the Balkans was very difficult and followed by dispute between the people and by a bloody war. To whom the territory belongs, who was first there, and who has more right to claim that territory – these are the main questions with which nationalists and politicians rule over the whole populations. This contribution is focusing on the process of conflict transformation from violence and total war into the reduction of violence. Bosnia and Herzegovina formally applied for EU membership on 15 February 2016, following years of constitutional reforms and commitments with the Dayton Peace Agreement
