Background: The feeling of fear of crime is a condition created in the hearts of many citizens, both in urban and rural areas, in war or peace, and the goal of many international researchers in the field of criminology is to evaluate it. This article is broken into three parts. The first part introduces the factors that explain the fear of crime, a including socio-demographic and social-psychological model by A. van der Wurff, L. van Staalduinen, and P. Stringer. The second part provides an overview of paradoxes and inconsistencies in the literature regarding fear of crime and the police’s role in reducing the fear of crime. Discussing public, political, and media perceptions of the role of police, and these perceptions’ implications for possible ways the police can increase feelings of security. Finally, it covers measures that can reduce fear of crime. The police presence in dangerous areas with criminal influence is an important factor to reduce the fear of crime. Citizens continue to make more demands of the police to fight crime, and this task is directed mainly at community policing. Alleviation of the fear of crime comes with the preventive actions of the police. They believe their presence in a neighbourhood calms the situation. For citizens, on the other hand, police presence can be seen as an indicator of an unsafe, tense, or disorderly situation. Methods: The combined methodology from the studies of self-accusation and victimization was used in this paper by following the listed methods. The police’s role to reduce the fear of crime in the RPRFCC community has two distinctive features identified within a comparative study of crime and victimization: the large number and cultural diversity of participants in our country, Kosovo, and its explicitly comparative design. The study reviews how to overcome these challenges and how to gather the data in time or to give an early warning.1 An integral part of comparative survey research is the inclusion of a long tradition of researchers in the fields of cultural anthropology, sociology, political science and criminology, with few clear solutions (A. Prezworski and H. Teune, M. Armer and A. D. Grimshaw, M. L. Kohn, C. Ragin, E. Allardt, S. Karstedt, N. J. Smelser, F. van de Vijver and N. K. Tanzer, T. Bennett, D. Nelken, S. Rokkan, et al.). During the implementation of RPRFCC, many technical, human, and logistical challenges and problems can arise, but awareness of these problems is the best weapon against oversimplification or misinterpretation of the results.2 The research also analyses the strongest and most problematic aspects, such as the challenges faced by residents and identification of a number of recommendations to strengthen law enforcement agencies’ work in the future. The paper addresses the following questions: 1. What conditions and causes lead to the occurrence or development of criminal behaviour in a society at a given time? 2. What are effective ways to remove the conditions and causes of criminal behaviour?
The legal system in Bosnia and Herzegovina is very complex, and as such has a negative impact on the development of entrepreneurship..Registration of companies in developed countries takes one day, in Bosnia and Herzegovina it takes up to a month. This is not the only problem, various paraphysical levies make business more difficult, the high rate of contribution to salaries are the reasons why we have a slow process of development of companies. This process is directly related to direct foreign investments, which in comparison to Bosnia and Herzegovina, e.g. with Serbia it is up to ten times less. This work will be based on the research of the theoretical part, which is the procedure for registering the company in question, both for domestic and foreign citizens, as well as the required time period for registration. Also, in addition to the theoretical part, the paper will also have a research part, based on the available data, and what are the parameters that influence the development of entrepreneurship in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The development of entrepreneurship is largely influenced by domestic and foreign investors, as well as the created climate and work environment. These are the variables that will be taken into account when analyzing the impact of certain parameters on the development of entrepreneurship. An unavoidable variable in the analysis is the legal procedure for registering and operating companies. This segment is unavoidable and plays a big role for both domestic and foreign investors. The analysis will show to what extent they influence the development of entrepreneurship. As recommendations from this work, clear guidelines for improving the development of entrepreneurship in Bosnia and Herzegovina will emerge, through clearly set priorities. Regression analysis offered different coefficients of influence of certain variables, which ultimately sets priorities in the realization of certain business barriers. Therefore, the dependent variable is the development of business companies in BiH (RPD), while the independent variables are the complex administration system (SSA), high paraphysical levies (VPN), low level of state investment in entrepreneurship (NSU) and insufficient level of foreign investment (NSI). The aim of this paper is to investigate and determine in a scientifically based way how complex legislation has an impact on the development of entrepreneurship in Bosnia and Herzegovina, taking into account other business barriers, depending on the available secondary data. Therefore, the hypothesis put forward in this paper is that the complex system of registration of companies has a negative impact on the development of entrepreneurship in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The analysis was done using a multiple regression model, the system of complex administration was not the only factor, there were three more, namely a high level of paraphysical levies, state investment in the development of entrepreneurship and a low level of foreign investment. According to the results of the analysis, two variables showed an extremely high degree of influence on the development of business companies in BiH, namely a complex system of administration and a high degree of paraphysical levies. These two variables showed an extremely high degree of influence on the development of entrepreneurship, which means that their improvement in the form of simplification of the administration system and reduction of paraphysical levies greatly influence the improvement of the development of entrepreneurship.
