CSO Coalition for Monitoring Serbia’s Chairmanship of OSCE welcomes Serbia’s gov
ernment’s and Foreign Ministry’s decision on self evaluation and reporting on the imple
mentation of OSCE human dimension commitments during the country’s chairmanship
of the organization. Tis contributes to OSCE fundamental principles and strengthens
the role of Serbia’s civil society in decision making and implementation of human di
mension recommendations.
OSCE Chair’s self evaluation in the domain of human rights results from the endeavor
and advocacy of the international CSO network – the Civil Society Platform. During its
OSCE Chairmanship in 2014 Switzerland was the frst to conduct and publish a self
evaluation report on the implementation of OSCE human dimension commitments. Te
experience of the Swiss NGO Working Group was most precious to Serbia’s civil society
organizations.
Serbia’s coalition for the monitoring was formed by Helsinki Committee for Human
Rights, Lawyers’ Committee for Human Rights – YUCOM, Forum for Ethnic Relations,
Policy Center and Humanitarian Law Fund. Other NGOs contributing to the report
were Autonomous Women’s Center in consultation with ASTRA – Action against Traf
fcking in Human Beings, Women’s Space and Dea Dia Association.
A CSO with experience in and expertise of a specifc domain was tasked with develop
ing each of the subtopics and thematic wholes of this report. However, all the members
of the coalition contributed to the fnal version of the report with their comments and
recommendations. Hence, all thematic studies and the report as a whole result from a
joint efort.
*
Tere are two sections of the CSO self evaluation report. In the frst, the CSO Coalition
commented on four topics the state of Serbia has defned: the right to assembly, elec
tions, gender equality and position of Roma. Generally, commented on were the reports
by a scholarly institution – the Institute of Social Sciences – and an independent agency
– the Commissioner for Gender Equality. In its choice of self evaluation topics the
Foreign Ministry opted for the methodology Switzerland had used. Namely, it chose the
topics the reports on which have already been publicized in OSCE region over the past
fve years.

CHAIRMANSHIP
SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONS ON THE INSTITUTE
OF SOCIAL SCIENCES REPORT “ELECTION
PROCESSES IN THE REPUBLIC OF SERBIA”
laWyers’ CommIttee for human rIghts – yuCom

1.1 GENERAL OVERVIEW OF THE STUDY “ELECTORAL PROCESSES IN THE
REPUBLIC OF SERBIA”
Te Coalition of Civil Society Organizations accepts the report of the Institute of Social
Sciences, as well as all identifed problems and conclusions in the areas presented. On the
other hand, the Coalition deems it appropriate to draw attention to the events in 2014
and 2015, which happened afer the national elections were held. It is on the basis of
these events that an assessment can be made of the consistency of the Serbian state and
political actors in respecting the recommendations issued by the OSCE afer the comple
tion of the election monitoring process in Serbia in 2012 and 2014.
.2.1 THE LEGAL FRAMEWORK OF THE ELECTORAL PROCESS
Te regulations governing the operation of local self government units allow for the dis
solution of the assembly and repeated elections in a local self government unit. Accord
ing to the Law on Local Self Government, the assembly of the local self government unit
can be dissolved if: 1) it fails to convene more than three months; 2) it fails to elect the
president of the municipality and the municipal council within one month from the date
of the constitution of the local self government unit assembly or from the date of their
dismissal or resignation. 1
Tese provisions are applied, as a rule, in local self government units where the election
result is not identical to the result at the state level. “Power” at the local level becomes the
subject of the “will” of political parties, which is something that does not contribute to
the realization of specifc needs of citizens within the local self government and to sub
stantial “separation” of the two diferent levels of government. Tis also indirectly afects
election results and prevents the exercise of mandates at the local level.

.3.1 PROTECTION OF ELECTORAL RIGHT
SERBIAN O S C E
CHAIRMANSHIP
Te process of protection of electoral right is characterized by legal formalism with short
deadlines for fling legal remedies. As a result, certain legal remedies are rejected as inad
missible or untimely, 9 and apparent illegalities remain uneliminated.
At the local elections in Majdanpek in 2014, a group of citizens fled a complaint regard
ing an apparent irregularity related to the layout of the ballots.10 Te position taken by
the Administrative Court was that the date when the plaintif obtained knowledge of
the layout and content of the ballot did not bear any signifcance to the timeliness of the
complaint, given that the legal deadline of 24 hours is calculated from the day when the
decision on the layout of the ballot was taken, and not from the day when the knowledge
of the irregularity was obtained.11 Tis system of protection of right was also criticized
by the OSCE/ODIHR monitoring mission. 12
4.1 THE MEDIA IN THE ELECTORAL PROCESSES
Te position and role of the media in the electoral process were observed by non
governmental organizations, both during the 2012 elections and during the elections in
2014. Specifc problems have been noted in 2014 related to the reporting on the election
of national councils.
Te study “Media in Elections: Media Monitoring: Election Campaign 2012”13 carried out
by the Bureau for Social Research stated that “a latent censorship of the media, to which
a formal ban of media is not central, is taking place in Serbia. It is rather implemented by
controlling the fnancial survival of the media and journalists, who unfortunately, failing
to organize themselves, in unions in the frst place, contribute to this state of afairs. Te
fndings of our monitoring also speak in favor of the thesis on latent censorship. During
the election campaign for parliamentary elections, the monitored media showed a low
level of integrity, since an information promotional discourse with elements of propa
ganda dominated the reporting. Domination of informative genre forms and the use
of dialogue genre forms for promotional purposes prevented the analyzed media from
reporting on the participants in the electoral process in an analytical and critical man
ner. Another indicator of the lower integrity of monitored media is a high level of un
signed articles, blurred journalistic sources, reliance on government sources and a very
high level of afrmative presentation of political parties, comparable to the fndings in
