Civil
Society in Serbia Suppressed During the 1990s – Gaining
Legitimacy and Recognition After 2000
The Civil Society Index
(CSI) report for Serbia was produced by the CIVICUS CSI
country partner, the Research and Analytical Center
ARGUMENT in collaboration with the Center for the
Development of the Non-profit Sector (CDNPS).
The CSI assessment is the
first ever empirical study of the state of civil society
in Serbia. The study has revealed that today’s civil
society in Serbia is still affected by the consequences
of the war against the regime of Slobodan Milosevic and
is operating within an environment marked by
institutional weaknesses in the political system, high
levels of crime and overall insecurity for the Serbian
people.
The report reflects on
the decline of citizen participation particularly in the
late 90s, which has severe implications for civil
society associations and social movements. The CSI
participatory assessment generated action oriented
recommendations targeting civil society, the state and
other relevant stakeholders. These recommendations
aspire for a more vibrant Serbian civil society sector.
