Summary/Abstract: While in recent years’ young people in Bosnia and Herzegovina try to make a difference in different ways, the fact is that they are due primarily to the lack of planning and systematic profiling on the labor market and then employment - on the margins of society. Because youth, as an age group of 14 to 29 years, pass through different stages of life (with different origins and property status) - primary, secondary and sometimes tertiary education, after which the phase of independence of youth from yours parents should occur. However, this is hampered or completely blocked by factors such as the inability to find employment, poverty, unresolved housing issues, confrontation with corruption, discrimination and various forms of violence. All these factors in many cases produce social barriers and problems that lead to the impossibility of family establishment. Among thus the paper also analyzes and addresses the relationship of media towards young people as a potentially marginalized group. Under normal circumstances, younger generations are the greatest preciousness of every society. But in neglected societies, which obviously include Bosnian-Herzegovinian, youth are left to themselves, suppressed on the margins, renouncing them discretely and surrendering to others, though it represents an inexhaustible loss for those communities.
