Global Governance

Global Governance

Author(s): Ahmet Davutoğlu / Language(s): English

Global governance is a topic of serious discussion among students of politics, within both academic and policy circles. To do this important topic justice, one needs to adopt a rigorous methodological approach, and offer a well thought-out definition of the adjective ‘global.’ Only in this way one can develop a comprehensive framework to analyze the complex phenomenon of global governance and suggest the ways through which it may be made more effective. Scientific inquiry sometimes benefits from personal experience, which, in turn, can offer profound insights into our inquiry about the work-ings of global governance. Recognizing this, I will start by recollect ng a personal experience which sparked in me a genuine engagement with the quest on of what ‘global’ actually means. I will then reflect upon the systemic forces at play in global governance, an endeavor which necessitates placing such forces in their proper historical context. I will move on to dealing with the preconditions for a more effective system of global governance, concluding with a discussion of the policy principles upon which such an agenda can be built

Religious symbols in the courts in the Republic of Serbia

Religijski simboli u sudovima u Republici Srbiji

Author(s): Dragić Radovanović,Miloš B. Stanić / Language(s): Serbian

Keywords: Public law; courts; judiciary; religion; religious symbols; Republic of Serbia; state; church; secularism;

Deluje da potrebe za nešto dužim zaključkom u ovoj temi nema. Pozitivno pravo u Republici Srbiji je jasno. Religijskim simbolima nije mesto u sudovima, jer oni ne oličavaju sekularnu državu. Naglasili bismo i da nam nije poznato da se u praksi desio pred srpskim sudovima nekakav slučaj u kojem je sporno pitanje bilo isticanje verskih simbola u sudovima. Zapravo,kada govorimo o ovoj temi, može se reći da Srbija sa svojim rešenjima, ali i praksom gde nijepoznat niti jedan primer o postavljenom pitanju upotrebe verskih simbola u samoj sudnici ili usudskom postupku, može predstavljati uzor ostalim državama. Možemo da zaključimo da je u Srbiji dosledno izvedeno načelo o svetovnoj državi.

Does BiH require a single supreme court?

Treba li BiH jedan vrhovni sud?

Author(s): Ljubomir Ožegović / Language(s): Serbian

Keywords: Public law; constitution; Constitutional court; Supreme Court; BiH; necessity; jurisdiction; legislation; evaluation;

The paper, which tries to answer the question of whether Bosnia and Herzegovina needs one Supreme Court, from theoretical and practical aspects, has shown the environment in which arguments are looked for in order to justify one of two possible answers and solutions. As in many other situations in life, which seems are not exceptions, so in this case it is not possible to find only those arguments that speak in favor of single answer. In order to attempt to find an appropriate solution, the author pays special attention to the supreme jurisdiction of the courts which are either constitutionally or by the law defined as the uniform application of law and ensuring the equality of citizens. After comparing this competence with the same powers of the supreme courts in other legal systems in the neighboring area and outside it, and bringing in correlation with certain international legal standards, the author tries to give a realistic view on how is possible to incorporate mentioned values in the legal justice system of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Applying the principle of in dubio pro conventione to the solutions of the State Aid Council of Bosnia and Herzegovina

Primjena načela in dubio pro conventione u rješenjima Vijeća za državnu pomoć Bosne i Hercegovine

Author(s): Samir Sabljica / Language(s): Bosnian

Keywords: Public law; state aid; BiH; EU accession; SSP; State Aid Council; in dubio pro conventione; legal framework;

Zakon o sistemu državne pomoći u BiH je od velikog značaja za evropske integracione procese BiH. On pokazuje da se BiH opredjelila da prihvati standarde EU u oblasti državnog intervencionizma, ali i namjeru BiH da reformira oblast subvencija u industriji. Reforma državne pomoći podrazumijeva preusmjeravanje ograničenih javnih finansijskih resursa u ekonomski samoodržive projekte, s potencijalom da podstaknu razvoj i zapošljavanje, te postepeno smanjivanje subvencija sektorima i kompanijama koje ostvaruju ekonomski gubitak. Osnivanjem Vijeća za državnu pomoć, BiH je realizirala obavezu iz SSP-a za osnivanjem samostalne, nezavisne, operativno funkcionalne institucije na državnom nivou, koja će vršiti nadzor nad dodjelom državne pomoći i njenim korištenjem, te koja ima ovlašćenje da odredi povrat nezakonito dodijeljene državne pomoći. Uspostava sistema državne pomoći unijela je mnoge nove elemente u pravni sistem BiH, poput doktrine učinka, a posebno posrednog dejstva pravnih propisa EU. Obaveza koja proističe iz SSP-a pruža mogućnost da BiH interpretira domaće pravo u svjetlu prava EU, te da kroz takvu interpretaciju pokuša dati isto značenje i efekte kakvi bi nastali izravnom primjenom norme EU. Ovakva obaveza institucija BiH da interpretativnom harmonizacijom pravni poredak BiH približi pravnom poretku EU proizilazi iz pristanka BiH da potpiše i ratificira SSP.

About Higher Education in BiH

O visokom obrazovanju u BiH

Author(s): Lamija Tanović / Language(s): Bosnian

Keywords: Public law; legislation; education; higher education; reform; privatisation; evaluation; BiH;

U proteklih deset godina, od pristupanja bolonjskom procesu septembra 2003. godine, u BiH se gradio vrlo specifičan i po mnogo čemu heterogen „B-H prostor visokog obrazovanja“. Gradio se u teškim uslovima u kojima je nedostajalo pet ključnih elemenata potrebnih za njegovo pravilno profiliranje. To su: 1) odgovarajuća legislativa; 2) dodatna sredstva; 3) dodatni kadrovi; 4) znanje o tome šta se gradi i kako i 5) intenzivna komunikacija među univerzitetima, fakultetima i ministarstvima zaduženim za visoko obrazovanje. Tako izgrađen B-H prostor visokog obrazovanja nemoguće je uspješno priključiti Evropskom prostoru visokog obrazovanja (EHEA). Pored toga, administrativno organizovanje visokog obrazovanja putem ministarstava na tri nivoa administrativne organizacije zemlje dodatno otežava naše uklapanje u Evropski prostor visokog obrazovanja. Državne agencije, koje treba da igraju najvažniju ulogu u procesu reforme, a to su kod nas Agencija za razvoj visokog obrazovanja i obezbjeđenje kvaliteta (HEA) i Centar za informiranje i priznavanje dokumenata iz oblasti visokog obrazovanja (CIP) nisu dobili mandat i ulogu koju treba da imaju prema zahtjevima bolonjske reforme. Istraživački i naučni rad na univerzitetima je veoma smanjen radi čitavog niza faktora, ali čini se ipak da su još uvijek univerziteti jedine sredine u kojima se, iako u smanjenom obimu, sistematično ulažu napori usmjereni ka oporavku istraživačkog sektora i ka intenziviranju međunarodne saradnje u toj oblasti. Kako izići iz ovog začaranog kruga? Nemoguće je pobrojati sve aktivnosti koje bi trebalo poduzeti kako bi visoko obrazovanje u BiH dobilo položaj, oblik i podršku koju mora da ima. Pomenuću zato samo dvije bitne stvari. Prije svega, neophodno je napraviti sistematičnu reviziju bolonjske reforme koja je implementirana na B-H univerzitetima od 2005. godine. Revizija mora da se, prije svega, odnosi na harmonizaciju visokog obrazovanja u BiH. Drugim riječima, isti profili studija na raznim univerzitetima moraju da se usklade i postanu uporedljivi i po dužini studija i po planovima i programima studija. Naravno, oni treba da se harmoniziraju i sa sličnim studijskim programima u Evropskom prostoru visokog obrazovanja. Ovaj proces ne može ići „sam od sebe“ – neophodna je koordinacija na nivou države što znači da Ministarstvo civilnih poslova BiH u segmentu svojih zaduženja u obrazovanju treba da preuzme ovaj posao. Ovo je aktivnost koju treba pažljivo pripremiti u razumnom periodu (po mom mišljenju dvije godine) u kojem će biti organizovane diskusije stručnjaka sa raznih univerziteta uz pomoć evropskih stručnjaka kako bi se došlo do najbolje profiliranog studija za određenu grupaciju, a koji može da se uklopi u Evropski prostor visokog obrazovanja. Drugo, univerziteti ne mogu da ispune svoju ulogu najviše obrazovne institucije koja obrazuje kadrove u tri ciklusa, bačelore, magistre i doktore nauka, ako im se ne vrati istraživačko-naučna aktivnost. U datim okolnostima to će biti moguće samo uz veliku finansijsku podršku ministarstava zaduženih za istraživanja i nauku i uz energično intenziviranje međunarodne saradnje, tj. obuku istraživačkih kadrova kako da apliciraju i dobiju sredstva iz evropskih fondova za istraživanje i nauku. Dakle, u sektoru visokog obrazovanja i istraživanja treba napraviti temeljite promjene nakon kojih bismo mogli očekivati da će taj sektor u ovom društvu dobiti ulogu koju treba da ima, a to je da bude pokretač ekonomskog oporavka i razvoja zemlje koji bi nas odveo u društvo razvijenih zemalja Evrope.

Registration of ownership rights of the Republic of Croatia on real estates used by local self-government units

Uknjižba prava vlasništva Republike Hrvatske na nekretninama koje koriste jedinice lokalne samouprave

Author(s): Tamara Mirković-Matulović,Miomir Matulović / Language(s): Croatian

Keywords: Public law; constitution; Constitutional Court; immovable property; registration of ownership; Real Property Rights; local self-governance; Republic of Croatia;

By the adoption of the Croatian Constitution in 1990 the system of social ownership was abolished and the process of its transformation into the regime of private ownership began. This process has not yet been fully completed, nor have all the doubts and problems in connection with it been resolved. In our paper, we focus on the problem of registration of ownership of immovable property which has previously been in regime of the „social ownership without registered user“ in favour of the Republic of Croatia. Some of the Croatian courts, together with the Croatian Supreme Court, in their recent case-law took the view that the immovable property which is registered as a social property without indication of the user is not the property of the units of local government (municipalities and towns) under the provision of Article 362 paragraph 3 of the Law of Ownership and Other Real Property Rights, from 1997. If this practice continues the units of local government will lose properties that they have been using for years. In our paper we present the view that the provision of Article 362 paragraph 3 of the Law of Ownership and Other Real Property Rights should not be applied and interpreted in isolation and independent of the principle of legal certainty, Article 132 on the right to local (regional) government, and Article 48 paragraph 1 on the right to ownership of the Croatian Constitution, the final provision of Article 388 paragraph 2 of the Law of Ownership and Other Real Property Rights, and the earlier laws that the latter provision refers to. These legal principles and legal rules must be interpreted and applied in a systematic way in order to find a solution to the problem which will be acceptable from the standpoint of the legal profession, as well as all participants in the dispute.

Hate Crime in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Brochure for Citizens

Zločin iz mržnje u Bosni i Hercegovini. Brošura za građanke i građane

Author(s): Snježana Ivandić Ninković,Božena Puljić / Language(s): Bosnian

Keywords: BiH;Hate crimes;

Brošura ima za cilj da pomogne građankama i građanima u Bosni i Hercegovini(BiH) da bolje razumiju i lakše prepoznaju, te adekvatno reaguju na zločine poči-njene iz mržnje. Također, brošura pruža građankama i građanima informacije kako da prijave zločin iz mržnje, kako i kome da se obrate da bi zaštitili svoja prava. Bosna i Hercegovina i nakon 17 godina od završetka ratnog perioda predstavlja pogodno tlo za širenje zločina iz mržnje, posebno onog na vjerskoj, nacionalnoj, etničkoji rodnojosnovi.Situacijaje dodatno pogoršana činjenicom da je legislativa u Bosnii Hercegovinin edovoljno prilagođena novonastaloj situaciji, zbog čega govor mržnje i zločin iz mržnje često prolaze nekažnjeno. Ignorisanje krivičnih djela počinjenih iz mržnje dovodi u pitanje sigurnost i stabilnost pojedinih zajednica u BiH. Neadekvatno procesuiranje i kažnjavanje krivičnih djela počinjenih iz mržnje stvara osjećaj nesigurnosti kod žrtve i povećava tenzije unutar zajednice, te otvara mogućnost za eskalaciju novih sukoba. Zločini iz mržnje u BiH predstavljaju ozbiljno kršenje ljudskih prava. Adekvatno razumijevanje učinka ovakvih incidenata i kažnjavanje predstavljaju zadatak kako za institucije vlasti u BiH tako i za organizacije civilnog društva i pojedince u zajednici.

Inefficient judiciary and preventive measures in criminal proceedings ( how the obligation not to leave a place of residence became a form of punishment)

Neefikasno pravosuđe i mjere za uspješno vođenje krivičnog postupka (kako je mjera zabrane napuštanja boravišta postala kazna)

Author(s): Branko Perić / Language(s): Bosnian

Keywords: BiH; judiciary; efficiency; preventive measures; criminal proceedings; residence; Constitutional court; courts;

In his paper, the author points to the illogicality of linking the duration of preventive measures to the duration of the criminal proceedings. There are a series of unpredictable circumstances that might affect the investigation, the right to have a trial within a reasonable time and the trial itself. Based on a more detailed analysis of case law concerning the application of the ban on leaving one's place of residence, the author particularly points to the illegal imposition and extension of this preventive measure and draws a conclusion that in an inefficient judicial system this measure actually turns into a form of punishment. Referring to a spectrum of options the State has at its disposal in order to prevent flight (bilateral agreements on mutual legal assistance in criminal matters), the author advocates a restrictive implementation of the preventive measure of the ban on leaving one's place of residence. The author proposes alternative measures be considered and calls for deeper consideration of possible duration of this measure in light of unforeseen circumstances.

Services of general economic interest in European law

Usluge od općeg gospodarskog interesa u Europskom pravu

Author(s): Desanka Sarvan / Language(s): Croatian

Keywords: economy; law; services of general economic interest; European law; Croatian law;

Services of general economic interest in European law have a special legal status because of the public interest involved in their performance. Since the initial instrument of restriction of market freedom of services on a single European market for consumer protection, the concept of services of general economic interest has evolved to the legal principle of respecting access to services of general economic interest, which presupposes a universal service and a protected customer of the household category. After accession to the European Union, the concept of services of general economic interest in Croatian legislation gradually replaces the notion of public services.
