Overview

This analysis reveals ethnic identity and constitutional structure create governance challenges in Bosnia, indicating urgent reform is needed.

Key Points

  • The imbalance between ethnic identity and constitutional structure intensifies political fragmentation and paralyzes institutions.
  • The political framework established by the Dayton Agreement has institutionalized ethnic divisions and weakened governance effectiveness.
  • Entities like Republika Srpska challenge central authority, eroding state legitimacy and complicating governance.
  • Constitutional reforms beyond ethnic power-sharing are essential for sustainable governance in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
