Most observers of Bosnia and Herzegovina's political situation have focused only on the problems that the Dayton Peace Accord created for the normal functioning of this Southeastern European state, but a workable solution is yet to be proposed. The Accord achieved peace by blocking any ability for effective governing and by diminishing the Bosnian state capacity through an excessive dispersion of power with an uncommon constitutional focus on internationalism, and an erroneous type of pluralism that undermines the normal functioning of a democracy. The solution for these problems is to be found by adjusting the procedural selection of the United Nations High Representative, who is the primary actor directly responsible for the implementation of the Accord, both in terms of the letter and intent of the document, and this paper explains how that change can be made and what problems it will resolve. ; Na bosanskom jeziku je početkom oktobra, ove godine, objavljen moj prijevod knjige Muhammed poslanik mira usred sukoba imperija, američkog historičara Juana Colea, profesora historije na Univerzitetu Michigan, urednika i pokretača portala Informed Comment, autora znatnog broja studija koje tretiraju historiju i civilizaciju Bliskog Istoka. Kako stoji u uredničkom podnaslovu izdavača, sarajevske izdavačke kuće Kupola, koja je ovu knjigu objavila u sklopu svoje edicije "Stubovi vremena", radi se o "biografiji Poslanika, a.s., kao vjesnika tolerancije i mira u jeku vizantijsko- perzijskih ratova."

The Magazine Illuminatio/Svjetionik/Almanar is taking its second step in a marathon on the path of new ideas about faith, morality, art, nation, society and state. We cannot hide either our nervousness or our curiosity from the rst step. The trepidation was the fear that we would not meet your expectations, and the curiosity was the desire to hear your objective criticism. Apart from two attempts at at criticism burdened with old and new prejudices, we no longer have reason to fear. On the contrary, we have gained the con dence that we dare and can walk freely with our heads held high because the Magazine Illuminatio/Svjetionik/Almanar knows its goal. Our curiosity, on the other hand, is satis ed by a review and analytical critique in one of the renowned, world- famous journals focused on works on religion, under the direction of Dr. Paul Mojzes, both the editorial board and the editorial policy. ; Časopis "Illuminatio/Svjetionik/Almanar" korača svoj drugi korak maratona na putu novih ideja o vjeri, moralu, umjetnosti, naciji, društvu i državi. Ne možemo kriti ni tremu ni radoznalost od prvog koraka. Trema je bila strah da nećemo ispuniti vaša očekivanja, a radoznalost je bila želja da ćemo čuti vašu objektivnu kritiku. Osim dva pokušaja paušalne kritike opterećene starim i novim predrasudama, nemamo više razloga za strah. Naprotiv, stekli smo samopouzdanje da smijemo i možemo slobodno koračati uzdignute glave jer Časopis "Illuminatio/ Svjetionik/Almanar" zna svoj cilj. Naša radoznalost,pak, zadovoljena je prikazom i analitičkom kritikom u jednom od renomiranih, svjetski poznatih časopisa koji je usmjeren na radove o religiji, pod rukovođenjem Dr. Paula Mojzesa, kako uredničkog odbora tako i uredničke politike.
