This book explores the stagnation of democracy in the Western
Balkans over the last decade. The author maps regional features of
rising authoritarianism that mirror larger global trends and, in
doing so, outlines the core mechanisms of authoritarian rule in the
Balkans, with a particular focus on Serbia, Montenegro and
Macedonia. These mechanisms include the creation of constant
crises, the use of external powers to balance outside influences,
as well as state capture. The authoritarian patterns exist
alongside formal democratic institutions, resulting in competitive
authoritarian regimes that use social polarization to retain power.
As the countries of the Western Balkans aspire, at least formally,
to join the European Union, authoritarianism is often informal.
