KRŠENJE LJUDSKIH PRAVA U BIH U PERIODU OD 1996. DO 2006. GODINE
VIOLATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA DURING THE PERIOD FROM 1996 TO 2006

Summary/Abstract: This work deals with the violation of human rights in Bosnia and Herzegovina (a study of the case of Srebrenica from 1996-2006). The Dayton Peace Accord established an institutional framework for the protection of human rights. However, despite the existence of the Dayton Constitution and the highest standards on human rights, those rights are inadequately realized in practice. The entities of the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Srpska Republic have not fully attuned their constitutions with the Constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina when it comes to the constitutional status of the people of Bosnia and Herzegovina. As a result, ethnic discrimination remains as a form of violation of human rights and an equal protection of human rights. Based on the performed analysis we have concluded that the Srpska Republic, the Municipality of Srebrenica and the Community Health Centre in Srebrenica, have not provided adequate health care for the population of Srebrenica, especially those most at risk, including women, children, the elderly and those with disabilities. The analysis also reveals that, until 2006, we have had violations of the rights of children returnees who do not have the opportunity to study the national group of subjects, which is guaranteed by the Law on primary education in the Republic of Srpska.
