Summary/Abstract: The Constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina enacted as part of the Dayton agreement confirmed the existence of the Republic of Srpska (established in 1992) and the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (established in Washington, 1994.). The Constitution prescribes the organization of the state government, adding functions and relationships of the Presidency, the Council of Ministers, the Parliamentary Assembly, the Constitutional Court and other institutions. The Constitution gave to entities the state-building elements and entitled them to regulate human rights and issues of good governance using their entity constitutions. There are many ambiguities regarding this constitution, even illogical, but it is important that it was able to establish the state and its organs and brought peace, and everything else should be upgraded.
