Rethinking External Finance for Economic Growth in the Western Balkans
Despite substantial external financial inflows over the past decades, the Western Balkan (WB) countries continue to lag behind the European Union (EU) in economic convergence. Using a newly compiled dataset covering EU transfers, bilateral assistance, foreign direct investment, and remittances, this article compares the WB experience with that of Central Eastern Europe and the Baltics (CEEB). The findings challenge the common view that the WB’s s…

Introduction
This introductory essay situates the papers in this Thematic Section within the background of social policy development in the Western Balkans during the long period of transition following the break-up of former Yugoslavia. We identify three stages of transformation of social protection policies. The first, in the 1990s, was characterised by a continuation of the Yugoslav legacy of social insurance, while many work-based benefits were lost durin…
The life and works of Domenico Mario Nuti, 1937–2020
It is challenging to provide an encompassing portrait of Mario Nuti's life and works: he was an exceptional man, who made significant intellectual contributions across a wide range of fields, as well as inspiring generations of students, colleagues and the profession in general, for more than fifty years. A brilliant debater and controversialist, he was equally at home in economic theory and in giving policy advice, and over the decades he had ma…
Structural Change in the European Union and Its Periphery
This paper analyses structural change in the European Union ( EU ) over the past two decades, with the aim of providing some guidelines for the Western Balkan ( WB ) countries. After recalling the main theories of structural change, the paper illustrates the general trend of decline in the relative shares of manufacturing output and employment in the old and the new EU member states, pointing to distinctive features of the East European countries…

Transition in Southeast Europe
International Advice and Institutional (Mis)configuration
International aid and assistance to the Western Balkans, which began more than two decades ago after the disintegration of sfr Yugoslavia, has been severely criticised on various grounds by academics, politicians, and domestic elites. One of the main points of criticism has been heavy foreign interference into domestic affairs, which deprives local policy-makers of ‘policy ownership.’ This paper uses four paradigmatic examples of reform in Serbia…

Economic Transition in Southeast Europe
The article examines some of the main features of the transition to a market economy in Southeast Europe (SEE). Since the early 1990s, a number of politically determined processes have had very negative economic implications for the whole SEE region, since many important economic reforms have been substantially delayed. Although the overall prospects have improved over the past few years, the SEE economies are still facing a number of internal co…
Regional Cooperation and the Enlargement of the European Union
The article evaluates and attempts to draw some lessons from the recent initiatives aimed at stimulating regional cooperation among transition economies in Northern, Central, and South-Eastern Europe. Although these initiatives varied significantly in their scope, objectives, and domain of activity, the author highlights the common elements and discusses both their major achievements and greatest weaknesses. The author then relates these initiati…

Regional co‐operation in Southeast Europe
Regional co‐operation in Southeast Europe (SEE) is of even greater importance today, in the aftermath of the Kosovo conflict, than a few years ago. The various initiatives to stimulate regional co‐operation in SEE in the 1990s have not yet led to any significant results. On the contrary, the lack of regional cooperation has seriously undermined peace and stability in SEE, contributing to several armed conflicts in the region, including the most r…

The distributive consequences of nationalism
IN RECENT YEARS the wheel of history apparently turned back in some parts of Europe, as several previously unified multinational countries broke up, following peaceful or bloody disintegration processes. If one is convinced that-in economic terms-integration is better than disintegration, because the latter reduces the market and increases transaction costs, and therefore diminishes the scope for the division of labour and economies of scale, one…
