Abstract

Završni rad obrađuje specifičnost ratnih zarobljenika u relevantnim ratovima 20. i 21. stoljeća. U
početnom dijelu rada polažu se pravni temelji – oni temeljeni na međunarodnom ratnom pravu te
nizom sporazuma i konvencija. Središnji dio fokusira se na povijesni pregled uloge, značaja i
položaja ratnih zarobljenika kroz oba svjetska rata, kao i u sukobima koji su rezultirali raspadom
bivše SFRJ, gdje će Domovinski rat (1991. - 1995.) uživati posebnu pozornost. Zadnji dio rada
bavi se trenutnom tematikom – ruskom invazijom Ukrajine, te razjašnjava dosadašnja tretiranja
ratnih zarobljenika s obje strane sukoba. Zaključak, koji se nalazi na kraju rada, ima dvojaku
ulogu: osim što daje kratki rezime cijelog rada, također pruža i autorova promišljanja o tematici,
kao i predviđanja za budućnost razvoja zajedničkih napora k boljem tretiranju ratnih
zarobljenika.

Abstract (english)

The final paper deals with the specificity of prisoners of war in the relevant wars of the 20th and
21st century. The initial part of the paper lays the legal foundations - those based on international
law of war and a series of agreements and conventions. The central part focuses on the historical
overview of the role, significance and position of prisoners of war through both world wars, as
well as in the conflicts that resulted from the disintegration of Yugoslavia, where the Homeland
War (1991-1995) will be in the highlight. The last part of the paper deals with the current topic -
the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and clarifies the hitherto treatment of prisoners of war on both
sides of the conflict. The conclusion, which is at the end of the paper, has a dual role: in addition
to giving a brief summary of the entire paper, it also provides the author's reflections on the
topic, as well as predictions for future joint efforts to better treat prisoners of war.
