Abstract
In addition to analysing the constitutional and normative
framework of local self-government in Bosnia and Herzegovina,
the paper aims to establish normative and other
shortcomings of the existing system of local self-government.
It also offers proposals for improving its efficiency
and quality, bringing it in line with the best existing European
practices. The paper presents and critically assesses
the status of local self-government in the three constitutional
units of Bosnia and Herzegovina, namely the Federation
of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Srpska Republic, and
the Brčko District.
