This book provides a detailed understanding of how different types
of engagements impact upon the reform and EU integration of the
Western Balkan region. It examines the influence of Russia, China,
Turkey and the UAE in the region and analyses the range of existing
links. Contributors offer an academic and multifaceted perspective
of the role of external and non-Western actors in the region that
goes beyond, on the one hand, the tendency of some Western decision
makers to perceive all engagement by third powers as a sinister
threat and, on the other, the view of regional governments of all
external involvement as a boon coming at a time of Western neglect
and reduced foreign investments. By looking at the importance of
Russia, Turkey, China and the UAE in the Western Balkans, the book
sheds light on one key arena of global competition, offers new
insights on the strengths and weaknesses of Euro-Atlantic
integration and advances our knowledge of foreign policy and its
economic, social and security dimensions for small and medium-sized
countries. It will be of interest to academics, postgraduate and
research students, and think-tankers with research interest in IR
and Southeast European Studies. European decision makers will also
gain an insight into the extent of non-Western influence in the
region.
