Abstract

This presentation argues that the involvement of external actors in Bosnia-Herzegovina during the conflict mediation and post-conflict reconstruction processes was flawed and diminished the prospect for the growth of Bosnia’s political institutions. Second, I suggest that lessons learned from this case study can inform a better model for international intervention in conflict mediation and post-conflict reconstruction. Finally, I review new variables for future consideration in post-conflict models that depend upon the involvement of external actors.
