Bosnia and Herzegovina - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Dayton Agreement succeeded in ending the bloodshed in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and it institutionalized the division between the Bosnian-Herzegovinian Muslim and Croat entity - Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (51% of the territory), and the Bosnian-Herzegovinian Serb entity - Republika Srpska (49%). On November 21, 1995, in Dayton, Ohio, presidents of Bosnia and Herzegovina (Alija Izetbegović), Croatia (Franjo Tuđman), and Serbia (Slobodan Milošević) signed a peace agreement that brought a halt to the three years of war in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (the final agreement was signed in Paris on 14 December 1995).

Bosnia - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Bosnia Bosnia-Herzegovina – kept undivided because of its ethnic and religious compound of Serbs (Orthodox Christians), Croats (Catholic Christians), and Serbo-Croat-speaking Slavs (Muslims) – became a republic within the Yugoslav Socialist Federal Republic in November 1945, after the expulsion of the remaining German forces. This was followed up by the agreement of the foreign ministers of Bosnia, Croatia, and Serbia to start negotiations on a new constitution for post-war Bosnia, which took place at the US air base at Dayton, Ohio, in November 1995. By May 1994 22,000 UN troops were deployed in the republic, with a mandate to ‘contain’ the fighting, to airlift relief supplies into starving, isolated eastern Bosnia, to enforce the ‘no-fly zone’, and to protect UN ‘safe areas’. encyclopedia.farlex.com /Bosnia   (3611 words)

Encyclopedia: Nations of Bosnia and Herzegovina The question of standard language of Bosnia and Herzegovina is resolved in such a way that three constituent nations have their educational and cultural institutions in their respective national standard languages: Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian. Until the Ottoman conqueror of Bosnia, we have evidence of three Christian denominations in Bosnia: Eastern Orthodox, Roman Catholic and an indigenous church known as the Bosnian Church. When Austria-Hungary occupied Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1878, Muslims saw it as their arch-enemy and many left Bosnia for territories still under Ottoman rule. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Nations-of-Bosnia-and-Herzegovina   (2863 words)

Nations in Transit 1998: Bosnia and Herzegovina Bosnia's current constitution, which originated as Annex 4 of the November 1995 Dayton Accords that ended the 1992-95 war, established the country's legislative structure, as well as those of the country's two new entities: the Muslim-Croat Federation (the Federation) and the Serbian Republic. The overall environment in Bosnia was not conducive to a free and fair vote, particularly due to continuing restrictions on freedom of movement, association, and expression. The constitution of Bosnia guarantees freedom from torture and inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, the right to a fair trial, the right to privacy, freedom of religion, freedom of expression, freedom of assembly and association, the right to own property, and freedom of movement and residence. freedomhouse.org /nit98/bosnia.html   (14498 words)

[13 Jun 2000]: PRESS BRIEFING BY SPECIAL REPRESENTATIVE AND COORDINATOR OF UNITED Criticism that the United Nations was incapable of peacekeeping in failed States was uninformed and false, Jacques Klein, the Secretary-General's Special Representative and Coordinator of United Nations Operations in Bosnia and Herzegovina told correspondents at Headquarters this afternoon. The Bosnian and Herzegovina people needed a sense that they had a home somewhere, that they were not living in some kind of a peri-State floating in the Balkans. The international community had invested $5.1 billion in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and enormous capital in lives, and looked to the leadership of Bosnia and Herzegovina to make the same kind of commitment. www.globalsecurity.org /military/library/news/2000/06/20000613-klein.htm   (941 words)

Bosnia’s Convertible Mark is the most stable currency in the region, serving as an essential precondition for economic revival. www.unis.unvienna.org /unis/pressrels/2002/note220.html   (842 words)

The Human Rights Chamber, which together with the Office of the Ombudsperson for Bosnia and Hercegovina forms the Human Rights Commission, continued to issue decisions on numerous issues including employment discrimination, property rights, and fair trial.

BOSNIA AND HERCEGOVINA: BEYOND RESTRAINT This is a critical moment for the U.N. mission in Bosnia and Hercegovina because of the confluence of at least two factors: first, there are still numerous human rights abusers and alleged war criminals in the police force, whose continuing influence prevents the development of democratic policing in Bosnia and Hercegovina. One of the primary tasks of the IPTF in Bosnia and Hercegovina is to assist in the creation of a democratic police force before the international community leaves, capable of creating a sense of security among its citizens. The resolution expanded the mandate of the U.N. police in Bosnia and Hercegovina to include the power to conduct their own independent investigations into human rights abuses perpetrated by the local police, whereas previously the IPTF had only monitored local police investigations. www.hrw.org /reports98/bosnia   (15861 words)
