Keywords: Romania-Moldova relations;
The study was elaborated by the Institute for Public Policy (IPP) in Bucharest and the Centre for International Studies, with funding from the Constitutional and Legal Policies Institute - Open Society Institute in Budapest and the Open Society Foundation, Bucharest, as part of the program “New Schengen borders and their social and human impact on the “outsiders” of the reintegrated Europe - the Moldovan case”. A substantial contribution was given also by the Institute of Public Policy in Chisinau. The study is part of a larger analysis project, started in 2001 on the basis of a partnership with the Chisinau Institute of Public Policy, involving experts working in institutions in the field of border control in both countries. The goal of this project is to contribute to the improvement of activities in securing the border between Romania and the Republic of Moldova, to the benefit of stability in both countries and regional security. The current study, drafted by experts in both countries, makes available concrete elements and guidelines for political actors, to be taken into account in decisions regarding bilateral relations in the present regional context, under the sign of European and Euro-Atlantic integration.

The study aims to operationalize and estimate the costs of implementing the rights of citizens belonging to a national minority to use their mother tongue in public administration. Identifies the areas of activity in which these obligations are generated, the forms of institutional organization through which the local administrative units manage them, the approximate volume of situations managed and the approximate additional costs compared to the situation where the local administration would use only the state language. The study is based on fieldwork that took place between July and October 2019, in which we used a complex survey tool and conducted interviews with local council representatives belonging to localities where the proportion of Hungarian residents exceeds 20%. The results show that the implementation of bilingual communication in local and county administrations involves significant costs, so - at least from the perspective of distributive justice - it is unfair for these costs to be borne exclusively by local governments.

The Rroma bibliography brings together magazines and newspapers that appeared in Romania and in various countries, especially after 1989, which were in the author's personal collection and were donated to the Institute for Studying the Problems of National Minorities in Romania. A similar collection, containing books, brochures and a small number of magazines and newspapers, was donated by the author in May 2015 to the Central University Library in Bucharest, the titles being inserted into a valuable guiding instrument (v. Gheorghe Sarau, Rroma bibliography (books, brochures, magazines, newspapers), Bucharest: University Publishing House, Bucharest, 2016), which helps librarians, researchers and the public interested in the Roma field, but also in support of Roma students from different specialties, or nerroms working with and for the Roma, both in the country and abroad. The journals and newspapers in the present bibliography fall within the scope of the Roma on Romani language and literature, history, anthropology, theater, music, sociology, politics, human rights, children's rights, Roma education, architecture and community development etc. between 1987 and 2014, and some in 1984-1986, 1978-1981 and 1970-1974. Although the collections of magazines and newspapers listed here do not fully cover the years of their appearance, they are still important milestones in the information and research activity in the field of Roma.

Keywords: BiH; discrimination; judicial protection; laws; practices; cases;
With the passing of the Law on the Prohibition of Discrimination in 2009, Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) took a big step on the charted course of advancing the protection of human rights. Three years after the day the normative prerequisite for protection from discrimination was established, however, judicial practice regarding this matter remains very scanty. Statistics kept by the organization Vaša prava, which among other things deals with legal representation of victims of discrimination and strategic litigation, are certainly telling. At the time of finalizing this report, in December 2012, only three claims approved by applying the Law on the Prohibition of Discrimination of B&H (LPDB&H) were known of – a final judgment by Mostar Municipal Court, a first-instance judgment by Livno Municipal Court, and a first-instance judgment by Mostar Municipal Court. Meanwhile, five claims were rejected and lawsuits in two cases were dismissed. Considering the above, it is difficult at this time to draw firmly substantiated conclusions on the application of many legal institutes and innovations prescribed by the Law, as well as on problems that may appear in this regard in future court practice. The judiciary in Bosnia and Herzegovina yet faces the important and challenging task of their interpretation and proper application. In the absence of developed case-law, as a Livno Municipal Court judge who conducted one of these cases pointed out, judges are struggling to “resolve their dilemmas in line with the acquired experience and practice from other types of proceedings, in the spirit and meaning of the legal provisions”. In the meantime, it is precisely for this reason that it is worth making an analysis primarily of the procedural legislative institutes specific for judicial protection from discrimination which were introduced by the Law on the Prohibition of Discrimination of B&H, with particular focus on those whose application has already shown to be problematic, or may yet, based on comparative experience and the nature of the procedural rules in this field in Bosnia and Herzegovina, shown to be problematic. In this report, the key anti-discrimination procedural institutes and their application in Bosnia and Herzegovina are examined from the perspective of relevant standards established through European Court of Human Rights case-law and European Union standards, as well as legislative solutions and experience from other countries. The main purpose of such an analytical framework is to offer guidance on potential advancement and proper treatment of certain specificities introduced by the LPDB&H in the legal system of Bosnia and Herzegovina, with the goal of ensuring the attainment of their purpose – privileged protection of individuals who find themselves in the position of victims of discrimination. We are proceeding from the assumption that conclusions may already be reached from an analysis of the legislative framework and initial examples of court practice on some of the key challenges that may pose an obstacle to efficient judicial protection of individuals from discrimination. The report is based on an analysis of the specificities of the LPDB&H, available data on the situation in the area of combating discrimination in practice in Bosnia and Herzegovina (such as relevant statistics and information on the course and outcome of certain court cases), analysis of relevant court judgments and interviews with several competent interlocutors. It is important to point out that comparative research was carried out as well, with the goal of identifying examples of good practice in particular problem areas and identified obstacles to efficient implementation of the LPDB&H from the perspective of judicial protection. Countries included in the comparative research are mainly European Union countries and countries in the region that share our problems. Additional interesting cases were also included if required by the analysis of specific issues covered by this study. Based on the identification and analysis of the challenges and problems that have already appeared in the processing of discrimination cases before courts in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and based on a contextualized analysis of current legislative solutions in Bosnia and Herzegovina and comparative experience, we attempted to come up with recommendations on how to advance the efficiency of judicial protection of victims of discrimination in Bosnia and Herzegovina. This report is certainly not exhaustive and comprehensive, but it is focused on the key problems that we have identified, based on available sources – primarily the first anti-discrimination court cases – in this field in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Of course, we hope that future research projects will give due attention to those aspects of judicial protection from discrimination that we could not, due to conceptual and technical limitations, cover in this study. We conceived and presented the analysis in line with the different stages of the proceeding – from the identification and reporting of discrimination to the final judgment. After introductory considerations on judicial protection from discrimination in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the report analyzes the various specific elements of this form of protection and related characteristic problems and ends with concluding observations and recommendations aimed at their elimination.

Keywords: BiH; discrimination; protection; NGO; civil society; role; importance;
With the passing of the Law on the Prohibition of Discrimination (hereinafter referred to as: LPD) in July 2009, the existing anti-discrimination framework in Bosnia and Herzegovina was supplemented. Thus Bosnia and Herzegovina joined a broad circle of countries trying to ensure the elimination of discrimination by adopting comprehensive anti-discrimination legislation that provides legal protection against discrimination committed both by the state and its bodies and by private persons. This important law, among other things, recognizes the significant role that non-governmental organizations are able to play in the field of combating discrimination by according them, among other things, certain procedural roles in the judicial proceeding for protection against discrimination. In the international and comparative field, one of the most important activities of non-governmental organizations that stands out in the area of combating discrimination is their role in proceedings for protection against discrimination. The reason why organizations of civil society are allowed to participate in proceedings for protection against discrimination basically lies in the fact that suppression of discrimination is a public interest activity and that any well-regulated anti-discrimination system should contain different modalities of participation of non-governmental organizations in proceedings for protection against discrimination. Therefore, we may characterize NGO activities in proceedings for protection against discrimination as a specific form of public interest litigation. Special significance to NGOs in this field, at least in European Union countries, was accorded by directives in the discrimination field, which require, for the purpose of ensuring efficient protection against discrimination, that the states in their judicial systems allow non-governmental organizations to act on behalf of victims of discrimination or in support of these individuals in proceedings for protection against discrimination. These procedural roles of non-governmental organizations are regulated differently in different legal systems. Yet, possible forms of activities of nongovernmental organizations on behalf of the victim that we might single out are filing a lawsuit in the name and on behalf of the victim – i.e. legal representation, the option for a non-governmental organization to appear as co-plaintiff together with the victim or the option to appear as an independent plaintiff with the consent of the victim. In addition, a specific form of action on behalf of victims of discrimination that stands out are activities of non-governmental organizations on filing a collective or group lawsuit. A very important form of support to victims of discrimination in anti-discrimination proceedings is certainly the participation of organizations of civil society as interveners in proceedings on the side of the victim or as friends of the court (amici curiae). Finally, a key contribution of non-governmental organizations in the field of combating discrimination is undoubtedly their role in so-called strategic lawsuits instigated to provide support to the implementation of anti-discrimination laws or to clarify various concepts contained in anti-discrimination legislation. Bearing in mind the above, this report attempts to analyze the existing legislative solutions in light of comparative experience and to point out the obstacles standing in the way of more active engagement of non-governmental organizations in judicial proceedings for protection against discrimination. In addition, the report attempts to offer specific solutions that will additionally motivate nongovernmental organizations to actively use the procedural roles accorded to them by the LPD, in the best interest of victims of discrimination. The report is mainly based on secondary, comparative research focusing on the role, activities and best practice of organizations of civil society in judicial proceedings for protection against discrimination. In addition, relevant legislative solutions related to the procedural role of non-governmental organizations in judicial proceedings for protection against discrimination were analyzed, as well as the first court judgments in discrimination cases in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Analysis of adopted legislative solutions in Bosnia and Herzegovina was performed in light of comparative experiences, primarily experiences of neighboring countries, considering that they share with Bosnia and Herzegovina a similar legal tradition and similar problems, as well as countries of the European Union which Bosnia and Herzegovina is trying to join. The analysis also encompassed other cases when needed to provide answers to specific questions. Finally, available sources on the current situation in the non-governmental sector in Bosnia and Herzegovina were also consulted, with particular focus on organizations working on protection of human rights. In the first section, the report analyzes solutions prescribed by the Law on the Prohibition of Discrimination of Bosnia and Herzegovina pertaining to the procedural role of non-governmental organizations in anti-discrimination proceedings. The second section focuses on obstacles that prevent organizations of civil society from taking a more active part in judicial proceedings for protection against discrimination. Through an overview of comparative experiences, effort is made to point to the most important requirements and criteria for efficient use of the option of participation of non-governmental organizations in antidiscrimination proceedings in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Finally, the concluding observations sum up the observations from the analysis and formulate specific recommendations related to legislative and practical solutions in this field in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Mjesne zajednice u Bosni i Hercegovini (u daljnjem tekstu: BiH) već dugo se smatraju ostavštinom iz jugoslovenske prošlosti. Ove podopćinske jedinice, koje su u bivšoj Jugoslaviji osnovane kao centri mjesne samouprave, bile su prostori za učešće građana u rješavanju problema u zajednici. Nakon pada bivšeg socijalističkog sistema i rata od 1992. do 1995. godine, došlo je do novog političkog ustroja, a mjesne zajednice su zanemarene. U posljednje vrijeme, mjesnim zajednicama (u daljnjem tekstu: MZ) sve veću pažnju posebno posvećuju međunarodne i nevladine organizacije. Vjeruje se da kao zakonski priznate podopćinske jedinice, MZ imaju potencijal da podstaknu učešće građana. Anketa koju su 2012. godine proveli Centri civilnih inicijativa (CCI) u 14 općina u BiH pokazala je da su ispitanici, među različitim vidovima učešća na lokalnom nivou, bili najbolje upoznati sa mogućnosti učešća kroz MZ (74,6%) i da je MZ među najčešće korištenim participatornim mehanizmima (33,2%). Iako podaci ankete iz 20 općina, objavljeni u studiji Svjetske banke iz 2009. godine, ukazuju na to da većina građana nije imala iskustvo učešća u aktivnostima svoje zajednice, a od ispitanika koji su imali to iskustvo 81% opisalo je sastanke savjeta MZ-a kao najkorisniji vid učešća na lokalnom nivou. Stoga ne iznenađuje da su brojni projekti koje su do sada implementirale različite organizacije usmjereni na jačanje MZ-a. Neke su inicijative tražile izmjenu pravnog statusa i zagovarale minimum standarda u funkcioniranju MZ-a kroz lokalne akte, dok su druge bile usmjerene na jačanje kapaciteta mjesnih zajednica. Ipak, i dalje su prisutne brojne prepreke funkcioniranju MZ-a. Neki autori kao izazove navode, između ostalog, nedostatak formalnih nadležnosti ovih tijela, nedostatak finansijske nezavisnosti i nekonzistentne budžetske alokacije općina prema MZ-u, kao i utjecaj političkih partija na izbore članova savjeta i predsjednika MZ-a. Studija Svjetske banke pokazala je velike razlike u poznavanju aktivnosti MZ-a, kao i u praksama učešća u njima među lokalnim respondentima u različitim općinama: drugim riječima, MZ mogu biti manje ili više aktivne ili mogu obnašati različite uloge u zavisnosti od lokacije. Studija o komunalnim uslugama u Gradu Sarajevu iz 2013. godine govori o potencijalu urbanih MZ-a da budu spona između stanovništva i vlasti, ali ukazuje i na nezadovoljstvo radom MZ-a koje su stanovnici izrazili. To nezadovoljstvo proizlazi iz percepcije nedostatka efikasnosti MZ-a, kao i njihove nesposobnosti da pomognu građanima da svoje probleme komuniciraju prema višim nivoima vlasti. Razumijevanje funkcioniranja MZ-a u BiH, kao i konteksta u kojem ove institucije rade, otežano je zbog nedostatka sveobuhvatnih istraživanja u ovoj oblasti. Dosadašnja istraživanja o MZ-u ponudila su parcijalni uvid u različite aspekte rada MZ-a u praksi. Nedostaju osnovni podaci o MZ-u, uključujući pouzdane podatke o njihovom broju. Generalno, ne postoje službeni podaci ili procjene o broju MZ-a u BiH i takve podatke ne prikupljaju statistički uredi. Rijetke su empirijske studije o ovoj temi, a dosadašnje analize njihovog rada uglavnom su bile fokusirane na zakonski okvir koji regulira rad MZ-a. Istraživanje prezentirano u ovoj studiji urađeno je kako bi se na sistematičan način upoznali sa praksama MZ-a širom BiH i na osnovu toga ponudile preporuke za unapređenje njihova rada. Imajući u vidu nedostatak osnovnih podataka, analizirati rad MZ-a u BiH i na smislen način postaviti hipoteze o kontekstualnim faktorima koji utječu na njihov rad predstavlja izazov. Zbog navedenih poteškoća, istraživanje je uglavnom eksploratorno. Ono nastoji dati uvid u rad MZ-a i opisati njihovo funkcioniranje. Studija je strukturirana na sljedeći način: U sljedećem, drugom, poglavlju, prezentiran je pregled koncepata koji se odnose na podopćinsku upravu ili upravu na nivou susjedstva, a slijedi ga poglavlje o komparativnim praksama mjesnih zajednica u zemljama bivše Jugoslavije. Četvrto i peto poglavlje sadrže analitički okvir i dizajn istraživanja. U šestom poglavlju prezentirani su nalazi istraživanja, strukturirani prema ključnim aspektima funkcioniranja mjesnih zajednica. Nakon toga slijedi zaključak i preporuke.
