Die Masterarbeit "PV Marktentwicklung in Bosnien und Herzegovina" ist auf der einjährigen Marktforschung für erneuerbare Energie in Bosnien und Herzegovina mit dem Schwerpunkt Photovoltaik (PV) aufgebaut. Die Methodologie, die im ersten Kapitel mit der Definition der Forschungsfrage und der Hypothesen ausführlich erläutert ist, besteht aus Literaturrecherche, Feldarbeit, SWOT-, Stakeholder- und Szenarioanalysen, zusammen mit einem groben Projektplan (Budget- und Zeitplan) für eine PV-Anlage auf der freien Fläche. Das Ziel dieses Vorgehens ist, die Schwächen und Bedrohungen für den PV-Markt zu erkennen und Beseitigungsvorschläge zu bringen, und danach die Stärken und Chancen des bosnisch-herzegovinischen PV-Marktes auszunutzen. Das zweite Kapitel erklärt die wirtschaftlichen, sozialen und politischen Umstände in Bosnien und Herzegovina, um die künftige PV-Marktentwicklung umzufassen. Das dritte Kapitel beschreibt die aktuelle Situation in Europa, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf die Märkte mit gewissen rezenten Komplikationen im PV-Sektor festgestellt ist. Das vierte Kapitel analysiert den Photovoltaik-Markt in Bosnien und Herzegovina aus der wirtschaftlichen, rechtlichen und physiogeographischen Sicht. Der sogennante "Sicherungsenergieplan" ist präsentiert, wo die Solarenergie als Sicherungsenergie während der Trockenzeiten und Hitzewellen umgesetzt werden kann. Das fünfte Kapitel erfasst die SWOT-Analyse und präsentiert die Stakeholderanalyse. Das sechste Kapitel erstellt die "best-case", "moderate-case" und "worst-case" Szenarien für die 2014-2020 Zeitspanne und stellt die mögliche künftige PV-Marktsituation in BuH. Das siebte Kapitel ist ein PV-Projektplan (Budget- und Zeitplan), der die Verzögerungen und zusätzliche Kosten bei der Entwicklung einer PV-Anlage umfasst. Das achte Kapitel präsentiert die Schlussfolgerungen der gesamten wissenschaftlichen Forschung. ; The thesis "PV market development in Bosnia and Herzegovina" is based on a year-long research of the renewable energy market in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) with the emphasis on solar energy (photovoltaics ? PV). The methodology which is explained in the introduction chapter, together with the definitions of the research question and of the hypotheses, includes literature and field research, SWOT, stakeholder and scenario analyses, along with a simplified project plan (budget and time planning) of a PV land area pilot project. This approach serves to answer the question how to alleviate the weaknesses and threats of the potential PV market development in BiH and how to utilise the strengths and opportunities that this emerging market has. The second chapter explains in short the economic, social and political characteristics of Bosnia and Herzegovina in order to encompass the future PV market development in BiH. The third chapter profiles the current PV market situation in Europe, with an emphasis on the markets that have experienced problems in PV sectors due to the implementation of short-term policies. The fourth chapter analyses PV in Bosnia and Herzegovina from the physical geographical, legal and economic perspective. A "back-up energy plan" is introduced, with the idea of PV being a back-up resource in periods of heat waves and droughts. The fifth chapter presents the SWOT and stakeholder analyses. The sixth chapter develops the best-, moderate- and worst-case scenarios for the 2014-2020 periods and depicts how the future PV market within BiH may look like. The seventh chapter is a pilot project plan, emphasising time, organisation and budget planning, in order to present the investor perspective and to clearly inspect the time lags and costliness in today?s Bosnia and Herzegovina with regards to the PV market. The eighth chapter offers the conclusions based on the scientific research. ; Lovorko Marić ; Zsfassung in dt. und engl. Sprache ; Graz, Univ., Masterarb., 2014 ; (VLID)240236

Corporate reporting in Bosnia and Herzegovina is traditionally focused on meeting the legislation frame for the financial reporting. Changes in business environment influence on business perspective of doing business but also on decision making process for wide range of corporate stakeholders. All the matters aforesaid contribute to the necessary changes in traditional financial reporting. Risk reporting is only a first step of corporate reporting process improvement. The institutional frames for risk corporate reporting are IFRS and relevant EU directives. This paper analyzes requirements for corporate risk reporting in EU and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Further, authors will analyze present situation of meeting institutional requirements for corporate risk reporting in Bosnia and Herzegovina on the sample of listing companies on Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina Stock Exchange - SASE and give some recommendation how to improve it.

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has been assisting the victims of the conflict in the former Yugoslavia since June 1991. Six years on, its delegates are still active in the region, addressing the lasting consequences of the conflict, but as the situation has evolved so has the nature of their work. This is particularly true of dissemination, which began as a concerted effort to promote greater understanding of international humanitarian law and the ICRC's role and mandate, but which has now been redirected towards meeting the needs of the post-conflict environment. This paper sets out to describe and analyse the development of dissemination in the present context. Though the ICRC's activities during the conflict were predominantly in Croatia and in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and there are similar dissemination initiatives in both these areas, this paper focuses on Bosnia and Herzegovina. Where relevant, reference may be made to dissemination activities in other parts of the former Yugoslavia.
This report will examine the trends of radicalization in Bosnia and Herzegovina using two hotspots as that represent the manifestations of radicalization in currant Bosnia and Herzegovina. One of the hotspots will present religiously motivated radicalism embodied in Mevlid Jašarević who is a member of Salafi community in Bosnia and Herzegovina, who executed an attack on the United States embassy in Sarajevo and the second hotspot represents ethno-nationalistic radicalism embodied in Chetnic movement (Serb radical ethno-nationalistic organization) and its gathering in Višegrad (Town in eastern Bosnia and Herzegovina). Using the two above mentioned hotspots and perpetrators involved in events mentioned report will analyse three levels of radicalization: • Micro level: Personal Factors (Background of Individual Actors) • Meso Level: Social Setting Factors (Groups, Networks, Communities) • Macro Level: Institutional, Systemic and Structural Factors Analysing the three levels of radicalization will give us an overview of factors driving and supporting radicalization that correlate with each of the identified hotspots. This report will also talk about factors that are related to political and socio-cultural environment of the individuals responsible for the hotspots that facilitated the violent acts. These facilitating factors of radicalization will give us an overview that make violent acts possible or attractive. Using I-GAP spectrum, constructivist method, the report traces the motives that drive radicalization of perpetrators described in the hotspots. For each hotspot, country reports will examine four aspects of radicalization that motivate individuals to engage in violent extremism. Country reports will ground the chosen hotspots in perceptions of injustice, which lead to grievance, alienation and polarization (I-GAP), and finally culminate in the violent act.

Public management continues to change at least in Bosnia and Herzegovina, even though it hovers at the door of the European Union. The interest in the concept of governance in public administration in Bosnia and Herzegovina is of recent date, which is why there is a lack of relevant research in this area. And certainly the specificities of the country's own organization contribute to the diversity of research and possible solutions and changes. The public sector in Bosnia and Herzegovina simply means public companys, public institutions and public administration (state, federal and county government and local self-government). This research, from the point of view of users of public administration services, also established a medium level of development of public management with regard to its functions and sought to obtain a more realistic picture from the point of view of citizens as users of its services.

This Policy Note has been prepared to assist the governments of the Entities in Bosnia and Herzegovina to better understand the current conditions of the railway sector,assess the policy options for modernizing it and help chart a course ahead. Railway performance is benchmarked against a number of regional comparator countries and against the European Union average. The financial performance of each railway has been examined by main business sectors (freight, passenger and network infrastructure) using a railway cost allocation model developed by the Bank. Sector policies have also been assessed in terms of budget impact. Public policy decisions on the railway sector are the prerogative of the governments ofthe Entities. To help inform their decisions a range of structural and policy options is presented, their key features delineated and relative merits discussed. The range of policy options has been discussed with representatives of the Entity governments and railways butno endorsement of any policy option has been given at this stage. The Policy Note does present the Bank team's opinions on certain of the options where this seems warranted but is not intended to be prescriptive.
