Ten Years After the Ohrid Framework Agreement
Publisher: Center for Research and Policy Making, Macedonia
Community conflicts require structural changes to improve intercommunity understanding and tackle issues of inequality, disadvantage and marginalization. Literature on explains that participation in public affairs and representation in state institutions by minorities is central to their sense of identity. It is crucial to their self-perception as a part of the state and the wider community.
Since the interethic conflict in 2001, with the Ohrid Framework Agreement, Macedonia has adjusted its structure of government to allow a greater participation of minority groups in policy making, and to strengthen their representation in politics and public administration. This paper evaluates the application of the principle of just and equitable representation of minority groups in the Macedonian civil service.
