Summary/Abstract: This paper analyzes local elections in Bosnia and Herzegovina – political actors who participated, campaign, electoral rules and electoral results. The author comes to the conclusion that in these elections the trend of high electoral abstention continued, caused by citizens’ dissatisfaction with political elites. Election results showed weakening of most of the political parties that so far have dominated the political process, especially those characterized by the autocratic methods of government, and which are considered the most responsible for the results of neoliberal policies.
