INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS IN POSTCONFLICT COUNTRIES: CASE OF BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA

Abstract

The paper is focused on activities of international organizations in postconflict and unstable countries with a special overview of their role in BiH. Since 1990 international organizations – such as UN, NATO, EU and OESS – have been engaged in BiH in the process of building the country and transforming a divided society into economically and politically sustainable country. Although international organizations became an important factor in the weak and non-functional country with the support of all eminent European countries and the USA, their interference has not produced expected results.
