Abstract
The necessity of revising the Constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina, with particular
emphasis on imposed changes by representatives of international community, is
recognized as a problem of general government functioning, both legislative and executive,
and judicial. Several decisions of the Constitutional Court of BiH clearly point out the next
steps necessary in the revision of the legislation, to make the system work. Proximity of the
European integration and institutional accession of Bosnia and Herzegovina into them, has
imposed, as an imperative, rationality concerning the organization. The more functional
organizational structure of BiH must, in its essence, be based on the written constitutional
equality of the Croat, Serb and Bosniak peoples on the entire territory of BiH, with a very
clear position that the Federation of BiH is a federation of constituent peoples rather than
cantons. The principles of constituency and the legitimate representation of constituent
peoples on all administrative levels of government are fully incorporated into the bases of
the European model which we offer. Modern, European-oriented, rationally organized and
effective in acting, this offered organizational structure offers the basis on which all three
constituent peoples and all citizens can recognize their future.
