Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Balkan name is often used as a synonym of war, divisions and hostilities along the national lines, lack of civilization, etc. This image, not always true, is more or less a real reflection of the past, partly of the present, and we hope not of the future . Nowadays the most commonly heard word is transition, or even integration. In line with the new context of relations between the Balkan states is the new denomination of this region as Southeast Europe. This name just as the Balkans does not only express geographic, but also political names. It expresses the willingness of these states to integrate into the European Union and NATO. It is an indication of their will to resolve the problems peacefully, to focus on economic development and the building of democratic states. One word is aimed at completing the story in the Balkans. And the end of history is still developing, because these countries are in the transition phase.In this paper we will talk about the political and economic transition of Macedonia from the authoritarian (communist) regime as part of the Yugoslav federation in the democratic regime as an independent state after 1990. The paper aims to highlight the transition process to this day. Achievements and failures. In the paper we will argue that the transition to democracy is still a struggle that Macedonia has not won. She is also in danger of losing it.Initially, the paper will address the theoretical aspect of transition. We will make a clear definition of key concepts such as "transition", "regime", "authoritarianism" and "democracy". This theoretical introduction serves as a recipe for appreciating the political and economic transition of Macedonia.The paper continues to address in more detail the political and economic transition in Macedonia. Of course, we will also talk about the basic components that are indicative of successful democratic transition. Civil society, human rights, media, minorities, etc., are an important place in the paper. In the end, we will address the current state of transition in Macedonia, and trends towards the future. In the end we have the conclusions that summarize the main findings of the paper.

Book Synopsis The Nexus Between Politics and Socio-Economic Development in South-Eastern European Transition - The Macedonian Case by : Marija Stambolieva
Download or read book The Nexus Between Politics and Socio-Economic Development in South-Eastern European Transition - The Macedonian Case written by Marija Stambolieva and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper discusses the connection between the level of economic development and the political system of the Republic of Macedonia. Following Herbert Kitschelt's classification of communist regimes as bureaucratic-authoritarian, national-accommodative and patrimonial varieties, the paper classifies Macedonia as belonging to the patrimonial type, since in the post-communist period it was reproduced in the form of a political machine in which formal democratized institutions became prey to the leading groups of political parties. Together with the uncertainty which followed the break-up of Yugoslavia, the continuation of patrimonial traditions through patronage and corruption hampered economic development. Under these circumstances, the politics of liberalization, deregulation and privatization supported by the international financial institutions were not able to achieve their proclaimed economic development goals.

Book Synopsis Making Politics Work for Development by : World Bank
Download or read book Making Politics Work for Development written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2016-07-14 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governments fail to provide the public goods needed for development when its leaders knowingly and deliberately ignore sound technical advice or are unable to follow it, despite the best of intentions, because of political constraints. This report focuses on two forces—citizen engagement and transparency—that hold the key to solving government failures by shaping how political markets function. Citizens are not only queueing at voting booths, but are also taking to the streets and using diverse media to pressure, sanction and select the leaders who wield power within government, including by entering as contenders for leadership. This political engagement can function in highly nuanced ways within the same formal institutional context and across the political spectrum, from autocracies to democracies. Unhealthy political engagement, when leaders are selected and sanctioned on the basis of their provision of private benefits rather than public goods, gives rise to government failures. The solutions to these failures lie in fostering healthy political engagement within any institutional context, and not in circumventing or suppressing it. Transparency, which is citizen access to publicly available information about the actions of those in government, and the consequences of these actions, can play a crucial role by nourishing political engagement.
Book Synopsis Western Balkan Economies in Transition by : Reiner Osbild
Download or read book Western Balkan Economies in Transition written by Reiner Osbild and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-23 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the economic and social development of the Western Balkan region, a group of six countries that are potential candidates for EU membership. It focuses on the key economic issues facing these countries, including the challenge of promoting economic growth, limiting public deficits and debt, and fostering international trade relations. Given the severe impact of the recent economic crisis on social welfare in the region, it also investigates the nature and extent of social exclusion, a factor likely to produce future political instabilities if not effectively addressed by a return to sustainable economic growth. The contributions explore these issues in light of the major influence of EU policy instruments and advice, which are currently guiding the economies along an accession trajectory to future EU membership.

Book Synopsis Public Policy Making in the Western Balkans by : Margo Thomas
Download or read book Public Policy Making in the Western Balkans written by Margo Thomas and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-10-28 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developing and ‘transition’ economies face myriad challenges in their attempts to achieve and maintain political stability and foster the economic growth essential for national security, the social well-being of current citizens and sustainable environments for future generations. Governments in the Western Balkans have striven to achieve all of the above, and this volume assesses the nature of their experiences as well as the level of their success in doing so. Featuring detailed case studies of public policy reforms in the region as well as comparative analysis on a range of indicators, the book analyzes the role of key players in setting the political agenda as well as implementing policy reforms. It also distils the lessons that can be learned from the Western Balkan experience, recommending strategies for enhancing the policy making process. In addition, it examines the developmental role played by the full spectrum of policy actors, including the private sector, NGOs, special interest groupings, international financial institutions, donor nations and the EU. Each case study has been prepared by academics with deep knowledge and experience of the western Balkans and addresses a core set of questions: identifying the policy issue and its broader context, defining the roles of specific individuals in formulating policy and reform and assessing the influence of networks and coalitions in the policy making process. With so little detailed literature on public policy making in a group of nations strategically positioned between Europe, Russia and the near East, the detailed insights provided by this volume will be widely welcomed. Our book provides case studies of specific public policy reform episodes in selected Western Balkan post-conflict and transition countries. The focus of these case studies extends beyond the technical aspects and entails substantive examination of the policy actors, constituencies and politics that ultimately shape the policy that emerges from the policy making process. This analysis draws lessons for strengthening the quality of policies, the transparency, consistency, and governance of the policy making process and ultimately for contributing to economic and social development of the region.
