<strong>Sažetak</strong>

Lokalnu zajednicu možemo smatrati oblikom odlučivanja i upravljanja u užim lokalnim zajednicama, na užoj teritoriji, neposredno od njenih stanovnika ili njihovih predstavnika koje oni neposredno biraju i drugih lokalnih organa. Ona predstavlja samostalno uređivanje i rješavanje mnogih životnih potreba stanovnika u užim teritorijalnim okvirima, u formi organiziranog i od države autonomnog načina vršenja tih djelatnosti. U Bosni i Hercegovini se ona razvija kroz dva odvojena i, donekle različita podsistema - onaj koji karakteriše lokalnu samoupravu u F BiH i onaj koji je u Republici Srpskoj.

<strong>Ključne riječi:</strong> samouprava, zajednica, organizacija, nadležnost, pravo.

<strong>Summary</strong>

Local community may be considered a form of decision making and managing by people in smaller communities in smaller territories, directly by its citizens or their representatives elected by them or any other local authorities. It is a form of autonomous dealing with life matters and needs of local population in smaller-scale territories, remaining loyal to the state approved way of dealings with those matters. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, the local community has been developing through two separate and somewhat different subsystems – one that is characteristic of local self-government in the Federation of BiH and the one in Republika Srpska.
