Security Sector Reform In The Postauthoritarian Environment
Security Sector Reform In The Postauthoritarian Environment

Summary/Abstract: The author analyses the possibilities and achievements of the security sector reform process in the post-authoritarian environ- ment with special regard to Serbia and its post-authoritarian her- itage. His point of view is that Serbia did not use all opportuni- ties offered by the post-authoritarian context which, apart from its inherently harmful elements, also contains the elements that can encourage the security sector reform process. This primarily refers to the professionalism of the armed forces’ members, but also to the inducements provided by general democratisation of the political and institutional systems during the security sector reform. The final outcome is that the advantages of the post- authoritarian context were not fully used, while the disadvantages were not removed in a satisfying manner.
