North Kosovo as a Political and Administrative Phenomenon
North Kosovo as a Political and Administrative Phenomenon

Summary/Abstract: Our goal is to explain and understand the recent political decision which has focused on the region of North Kosovo, the Brussels agreement from April 2013. The tremendous influence this agreement has caused in the region and to both the Serbian and Kosovo government is very big. Our aim is to see how such agreements are understood by everyday people, politicians and other stakeholders not just in the region but broader. This agreement is binding for Serbia and Kosovo, even more is binding for the people who live on North Kosovo. It is necessary to see how people react to it and how they can benefit, both on North and other parts of Kosovo. The application of the agreement is very broad and in fact can influence more Kosovo inhabitants than just those residing on North Kosovo. The specific situation which we call “Phenomena of North Kosovo” requires a very careful approach since this region is very popular for its chaotic situation which lasts for many years. The causes of division present here got stock in time and there is no possibility to solve them in a manner of one year. For the better understanding of the political and legal issue after the Brussels agreement present in both Serbia and Kosovo we have examined the legal framework of these states and their Constitutions. The Brussels agreement does change the meaning of some articles of the Constitutions and it can be predicted that this agreement will change and influence these Constitutions. On the end we see that both states have given up something but at this moment we do not see the exact benefits to people and can’t predict the final date when this agreement will be a part of everyday life on North Kosovo.
