"Living in a semi-protectorate - Bosnia and Herzegovina for three decades with the international intervention"
At the end of 1995, after more than three years of war, the international community decided to intervene in Bosnia and Herzegovina and stop the war. This decision was introduced through the negotiation and signing of the Peace Agreement, which defined the country's future and marked the beginning of the experiment that is still going on. This experiment is presented with the status of semi-protectorate, a unique approach that persists until today, shaping the day-to-day lives of people in the country while influencing politics and policies. This presentation will talk about the semi-protectorate and how it looks in practice.
