Conditioning Democratization: Institutional Reforms and EU Membership Conditionality in Albania and Macedonia

Ridvan Peshkopia

Conditioning Democratization

Institutional Reforms and EU Membership Conditionality in Albania and Macedonia

This book analyzes the effects of European Union membership conditionality on institutional reforms in Eastern Europe, building on concrete examples from four sectors in Albania and Macedonia, two postcommunist countries that have yet to join the EU. The author discusses the theory of 'consociational democracy' often considered the key to stabilizing deeply divided countries, and reapplies it on the international stage to argue for how the EU can better direct democratization.
