Sažetak
Mines represent by far one of the most significant security, humanitarian, environmental, economic and development problems of the international community. Areas covered with mines have direct and indirect impact on a community, manifested in a huge number of civilian casualties, the population's health, losses in livestock, arable land, supplies, production and trade, constant fear and threat, resumption of animosity, distrust and intolerance. Despite increasing security, humanitarian, environmental, economic and development problems caused by mines, still there hasn't been created a uniform and generally accepted model of counter-mine activities. In the 21st century this will represent an imperative which the international community will have to salve in joint efforts with different areas around the world. Realizing the necessity of such endeavors, the author deals with the basic social-political consequences of having the territory covered with mines. He furthermore points at the prospects of solving the problems related to mines in the countries of Southeastern Europe and suggests a possible model of subregional cooperation.
