The paper introduces the geographic, ethnic and political and legal territory of today's Sandžak. The aim is, primarily, to point out the problem of the status of Sandžak in the context of the democratic transition of the newly established states in the Southeast Europe. The authors indicate that the civilization framework of Sandžak has been systematically exposed for deliberate destruction during the years, which has been manifested by political and sociological changes, distortion of demographic balance and, in particular, by the disappearance of a significant number of cultural characteristics of the Bosniak national substance, all with an aim of suppressing their existence in this region, which is explained by Belgrade and Podgorica strategic influences and plans to diminish its current subjectivity and legal and political status.As a historical continuity in terms of subjectivity, from time to time, Sandžak has changed its status, depending on the context it belonged, and often in unequal circumstances, it existed in different forms as an important center, in the context of history, in all major unrests in Europe and the region. Nowadays, it exists as a region, and its recent division into Northern and Southern part came about following the independence of Montenegro, thus causing an artificial division of this ethnic area.By applying scientific-research, analytical-synthetic and comparative methods, which, as methodological procedures, enable detection, discovery and examination of scientific truth, the paper also pinpoints the consequences of international implications that are still existing. This confirms that the causes should be sought not only in the symbolic democracy of the countries in which Sandžak is currently located, but also in the lack of interest of Brussels towards this region, and in the incompetence of international entities which, by imposing European standards and modern projects, in fact contribute to the destruction of Bosniak identity in this region. Application of the observation method, the generalization method, and the Delphi method based on the logic and the utilization of acknowledged and affirmed opinions of reputable experts in this field have also contributed to this standpoint.From the aspect of scientific predictions, the authors express their view that the process of European integrations in the countries of the Western Balkans will increasingly affect the solution of the issue of Sandžak and the general aspiration of its people for independence.
