Medborgarandans roll i demokratiskt institutionsbyggande : -Fallet Kosovo 1999 och framåt

<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>The purpose with the study is to see if it is possible to create well functioning and democratic government and parliament in Kosovo, within a near future thru social capital.</p><p> </p><p>I have some research questions that will help me reach my purpose:</p><p> </p><p>1. Are Kosovo‘s institutions effective and democratic today?</p><p>2. Does social capital exist in Kosovo today?</p><p>3. Are there satisfactory opportunities for building well functioning, democratic institutions in the future?</p><p>4. Are there any obstacles on the way for building well functioning, democratic institutions in the future?</p><p> </p><p>My study is based mostly on qualitative interviews with social scientists, political scientists, historian, citizens and other people that would give me useful answers to my questions.</p><p> </p><p>My results shows that Kosovos government and parliament are not well functioning democratic institutions. The extent of social capital is also very low or not existing at all. The lack of social capital is not the explanation to the fact that Kosovo‘s institutions are not well developed. There are many other things that explains the institutional situation better.</p><p> </p><p>The answer to my purpose is that it is not possible to develop well functioning democratic institutions in Kosovo within a near future. Institutional Development takes time as Robert Putnam argues and the obstacles are to great to over win witin a near future.</p>
