Abstract

The conflicts in the Balkans were dealt with throughout the 1990s from the perspective of traditional diplomacy, peacekeeping and humanitarian assistance. Accordingly, strengthening the state capacity was seen as the key for stability in the region. While the European Union (EU) has become the central actor in transforming of the region in 2000s, its state-building policy has resulted in the strengthening of the state by means of institutional capacity building. However, the level of socio-political cohesion of the state cannot be "imposed" externally, but rather must be accepted and built internally. This article argues that the strengthening of the state in the case of Bosnia-Herzegovina (BiH) should be founded upon a democratic system that encourages citizen participation rather than ethno-politics. This study aims to analyze the EU's state-building efforts in BiH critically.

Özet

1990'lı yıllar boyunca Balkanlar'daki çatışmalar, geleneksel diplomasi, barışı koruma ve insani yardım çerçevesinde ele alınmıştır. Bu doğrultuda, devlet kapasitesinin güçlendirilmesi, bölgedeki istikrar için anahtar olarak görülmüştür. Avrupa Birliği (AB) 2000'li yıllarda bölgenin dönüşümünde temel aktör haline gelirken, Birliğin devlet inşası siyaseti, kurumsal yeteneklerin inşası yoluyla devleti güçlendirmeyi hedeflemiştir. Bununla birlikte, devletin sosyo-politik bağlaşma düzeyinin, dışarıdan "empoze" edilerek değil, içeride kabul ve inşa edilmesi gerekir. Bu makale, Bosna-Hersek örneğinde devletin güçlendirilmesinin etnik siyasetten çok vatandaş katılımını teşvik eden demokratik bir sistem üzerinden gerçekleşeceğini ileri sürmektedir. Bu çalışma, AB'nin Bosna-Hersek'teki devletinşa çabalarını eleştirel bir tutumla analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır.
