Abstract

The political system of BaH is a special case of political system where live together three nations (Muslims, Croats and Serbs). Composition of the political system was guarantied by theDayton agreement. The division to the two parts – the Federation of BaH and the Republic of Serbs – creates special conditions which are seen not only in the election. The local election is connected with the party system and the special local party system. At the same time the local election is interpreted in the context of a municipality, region and the whole political system. The theoretical base results from the second order election. The main research question is: Are the local election the second order election?
