Abstract
It is considered that one of the most important indicators in understanding the legal, political and administrative structures of democratic countries is the police organizations. As a legitimate and armed law enforcement force, police organizations, with responsibility of the establishment and protection of public order and state-citizen relationship, take place focus of state mechanism. The subject of this study is to discuss the current situation and problems of the police organization system in Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The complex structure of the police in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which underwent major changes and transformations and significant reforms since the 1995 Dayton Agreement, brought many problems. In this study, these problems were defined as the politicization of the police in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, ethnic-based discrimination in police employment, the ethnic nationalist reform attempts of the Republika Srpska region, and the Russian influence in this region and the decrease in the trust of the people developing in the region with the corruption problem. It is considered that the analysis of the police of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina is an important experience in terms of predicting the possible turmoil in the Balkan region in the future, as it is an important experience for other countries involved in other post-conflict reform processes in the Balkan region.
