History
It contested the 2014 parliamentary elections as part of a joint list with the centrist Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and centre-left Social Democratic Union (SDU), but the alliance received only 3.4% of the vote, failing to win a seat.[1]
In the 2016 parliamentary elections it ran alone, winning two seats.[2] The party officially changed its name from the Bosniak Democratic Union of Sandžak to the Justice and Reconciliation Party on 23 December 2017.[3] Jahja Fehratović had led the party from its formation until this time; following the name change, Muamer Zukorlić was recognised as its leader.
