Summary/Abstract: At its meeting in Brussels on 23-4 May 2000, the Peace Implementation Council (PIC) produced a programme for the next phase of the Bosnian peace mission, which marks a dramatic shift in international priorities. The international community has now pledged to concentrate its resources on building the core structures required for Bosnia to function as an integral and independent state. The PIC Declaration contains a remarkably specific programme for building effective institutions at state level and creating a single Bosnian economic space. This Report examines the main elements of the state-building agenda set out by the PIC. It also raises some practical issues to be addressed immediately.
