Sažetak
Since the beginning of the aggression against Bosnia and Herzegovina, more
precisely, since 1991, there has been controversy over the constitutional arrangement of
BiH. The Peace Plans and Agreements that were to determine the constitutional arrangement
of BiH as a complex state, were not implemented, because of different views of the
constitutional arrangement of Bosnia and Herzegovina by the three constituent peoples
of Croats, Serbs and Bosniaks / Muslims. One of the two conditions for recognition of
BiH was the Cutilleiros plan which had designated BiH as a complex state composed of
three republics, defined by the ethnic principle. This part of the plan was not implemented
by the president of Izetbegovic and the elected Bosniak politicians even though it was a
condition for the recognition of independent and sovereign BiH. Three different constitutional
arrangements of BiH representing the three constituent peoples of Bosnia and
Herzegovina extend from the beginning of the war to date. These three arrangements are:
Bosniaks-civic arrangement; Croats-federalism; Serb-their own state. All peace plans for
BiH, apart from satisfying several factors such as economic, cultural, religious and other,
included, above all, an ethnic factor. Proclaiming that all plans for the end of the war mean
the division of Bosnia and Herzegovina, by a greater number of Bosniak politicians and part
of the international community, is just another attempt to build BiH as a civil state where
the rule of one man - one vote - would be applied.
The Dayton Peace Agreement has ended the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina and has
established the peace, but there was no establishment of a sustainable and prosperous
BiH. With the new constitutional arrangements, necessary to achieve the equality of the
three constituent peoples, Bosnia and Herzegovina would have achieved development and
the easier access to the European Union would have been provided. The achievement of
equality between the constituent peoples of BiH can only be achieved by a different arrangement
of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
