Summary/Abstract: The study of the administrative institutions of Bosnia and Herzegovina closely links the historical and archival approach of the study. It includes reviews and elaborations on their structure, internal organization, and all socio-political and hierarchical influences and their interconnectedness. The organization of Sarajevo’s modern city administration dates back 140 years ago. It had two development phases in the process of organizing and acting: – the first phase from 1878 to 1945 and – the second phase from 1945 to 1995. The second phase can be traced through archive fonds of administrative institutions that are kept in the Sarajevo Historical Archives, according to the established original orders of formation: People’s Committee of the City of Sarajevo (1945–1955), Sarajevo City Council (1969–1995), People’s Committee of the County Sarajevo (1945–1966), People’s Committee of Sarajevo’s areas (1945–1952) and Sarajevo city municipalities. However, these archival fonds have their place and significance in further planning and development of the administrative, urban, social and cultural development of the City of Sarajevo.
