Almir Pustahija
Abstract
The author analyzes contemporary terrorism, delving deeply into different dimensions of causation and production of modern terrorism, and looking critically at the negative connotations of globalization and global processes in the world as key factors that greatly contribute to creating insecurity, with its accompanying consequences. The research approach applied in this paper may explain the essence of modern terrorism to and facilitate the rejection of widely-accepted opinions based on incomplete and distorted information that result in the production of fear of terrorism. Also, the paper analyzes the terrorist acts that took place in Bosnia and Herzegovina since its independence until today from the criminal procedural and security point of view, pointing to the possibility of increased insecurity and the treath of terrorism, which is reflected in the specific ways in society, but also overviewing the specific aspects of the overall security sector of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and its struggle to prevent and suppress internal, interstate and transnational terrorism. In its conclusion, the paper refers to the fact that in addition to state institutions that are involved in the activities of prevention and fight against terrorism, there are other important actors, such as religious institutions/communities in Bosnia and Herzegovina, that are actively involved in the aforementioned activities.
