Summary/Abstract: The Dayton Peace Agreement ended the war, ended human casualties and material destruction of Bosnia and Herzegovina. But everything else about it, including the documents adopted based on it, is a great burden for Bosnia and Herzegovina as a European society and a European country. Among these, usually the most prominent is Annex 4, the Constitution of BiH, reasons for which are more than obvious. Solutions in this Annex, in fact, today are the basis for the continuation of politic – or policies – that brought the war in the first place.Burden to European changes, however, does not lie only in Annex 4, but also in parts of the others, because they did not anticipate the instruments that would ensure their implementationin real life. Therefore, the most serious question arises: where and how to proceed? Futureof BiH in fact faces – and is offered – two scenarios. One is the defence and the elevation tothe status of a cult of the existing Dayton solutions – and this scenario is, without a doubt,a guarantee to the continuity of the processes that characterize Bosnia and Herzegovina for the last decade. The second is a review of the Dayton solutions and their upgrade with those that can ensure the process of European transformation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, both as a society and as a country. Forms of upgrades and interventions in existing solutions can bevaried, but all have in common the existence of a broad social consensus on the need, and the direction of interventions, or, if the same is not present, the pressure of the world centres of power that would result in this type of urgent system solutions.
