The Europeanisation of the Western Balkans: Eu Justice and Home Affairs in Croatia and Macedonia


Add your own review!

Overview

This book deals with the scope and nature of the EU's external influence over South-Eastern Europe in the present enlargement. By elaborating on the Europeanisation of the Western Balkans in a systematic, theory-oriented and comparative way, the book provides rich insight into the dynamics of the current enlargement and offers a comprehensive analysis of the EU's avenues of external leverage in the field of justice and home affairs, a key sector of cooperation in the EU-Western Balkans relations. The book is an important contribution towards a better understanding of how the EU's use of pre-accession conditionality has changed since the Eastern enlargement. It will be of interest to decision-makers, officials and academics concerned with adaptation and transformation processes in South-Eastern Europe and the possibilities and limitations of the EU's influence in the outside world. -- .

Reviews

'The book is characterized by impressive depth of analysis, a convincing, functional structure, and clarity of presentation and argumenta tion. Moreover, it calls on future studies to envisage policy conditionality for other sectors of integration as well, though it remains to be seen whether the success of visa liberalization can be repeated. Overall, it has been an extreme ly enjoyable experience reading Florian Trauner's The Europeanisation of the Western Balkans, and I am thankful for the opportunity to discuss this valuable piece of work.'
