2 - CONTEXT: Peace at risk in Bosnia
Show Notes

Welcome to Episode Two of Peace at Risk in Bosnia, a three-part podcast by the Aegis Trust exploring the present crisis which threatens a return to violence 26 years after the Dayton Peace Accords ended war and genocide in Bosnia and Herzegovina. 

In this episode we find out how Bosnia’s complex constitution, formed by the Dayton Peace Accords, has become an obstacle to the country’s development. We also explore the wider geopolitical context for Bosnia’s problems being ignored or exploited by politicians and governments, both in the region and around the World. 

Narrated by Aegis founder and CEO James Smith, with contributors Emir Suljagić (Director of the Srebrenica Genocide Memorial Center), Tatjana Milovanović  (Program Director for the Post-Conflict Research Center in Sarajevo), Hikmet Karčić (Genocide Scholar and Senior Researcher at the Institute for Islamic Tradition of Bosniaks in Sarajevo) and Jasmin Mujanović (political scientist and analyst of southeast European and international affairs).
