Failure of institutionalization of peace in BiH after almost a decade of<br />

rigorous peace building efforts of the international community shows the fault of the<br />

mainstream understanding of peace building. The dissertation also unveils that<br />

engagement in Kosovo is the product of a similar strategy, which in practice either<br />

repeated the same fruitless methods or tried to build on the experience obtained in<br />

Bosnia but failed to heal up the troubles and challenges faced in Kosovo. Overall, the<br />

study points out the inevitability of a novel approach and an alternative peace<br />

building strategy beyond the policy-related focus.<br />

Keywords: Peace building, humanitarian intervention, instruments of peace building:<br />

governance and security sector reform, post-conflict elections, promotion of human<br />

rights, return of refugees, civil society development, Bosnia and Herzegovina,<br />

Dayton Peace Agreement, Kosovo and UN Security Council Resolution 1244.<br />
