| Description |
The study examines transformation of political and legal system of Western Balkan countries. The transformation of Western Balkan was indeed unique. This has been a violent transformation, with war, exodus, genocide and severe violations of human rights. But at the same time, as far as the legal, economic and the political changes are concerned, the transformation of the Western Balkan was amazingly rapid. From that perspective it is an exceptional success story. However, from the perspective of the social life, the result is very disappointing and discouraging. This deep transformation is experienced by a considerable portion of the population. In this paper we will try to make a comparative analysis of numerous social problems provoking countries of the western Balkan. The notion Western Balkan is a political concept rather than a geographical one, which actually is more or less imprecise. The new western Balkan countries emerged after the collapse of the communist system in the 1990s, and the dissolution of the Yugoslavian Federation. An exception to this is the Republic of Albania, which had a very rigid form of a communist dictatorship and was self isolated. After dissolution of the Yugoslavian Federation new states over a period of several years were in a series of conflicts among themselves. Thus wars destroyed economic infrastructure and almost all state institutions, the privatization process was realized unfairly, and the NATO and EU integration were very slow, so we can conclude that the whole process of transformation has been a dramatic phenomenon.
