| book description |

This book provides a broad, interdisciplinary analysis of events impacting on North Macedonia since its independence, particularly during the last decade. In the past thirty years, the country has gone through deep political, social and economic transition, along with a name change from â€˜Macedoniaâ€™ to the â€˜Republic of North Macedoniaâ€™ following the Prespa Agreement signed with Greece. The contributors consider Macedoniaâ€™s challenges, its multi-ethnic make-up and its ambition to enter the European mainstream through the auspices of the European Union and NATO. The volume includes chapters on international politics and North Macedoniaâ€™s place in the regionâ€™s security architecture as well as the difficulties of the privatisation of socially owned enterprises, political corruption, state capture and backsliding. The book also covers the controversial â€˜Skopje 2014â€™ project in addition to the impact of migration along the â€˜Balkan Routeâ€™ and the current wranglings with Bulgaria over identitypolitics.Â
