The volume aims to examine Europeanization of Montenegro, a
regional frontrunner among all Western Balkans in the EU
integration process, through EU impact on domestic governmental
changes by focusing on three political membership conditions of the
EU: judicial reform, fight against the corruption, and development
of regional cooperation and good neighbourly relations. This book
is based on the argument of the EU transformative power having
produced negatively reinforcing effects in key accession criteria
in the candidate country within the ten years of integration
period. The given deficiency of fulfilment of political conditions
in Montenegro is, on the one hand, primarily the result of an
inconsistent and inefficient EU conditional policy, and
unfavourable domestic factors to appropriately conduct reform
activities, thus resulting in generally weak and mitigating reform
progress. In addition, the book has claimed that the effective
adoption and alignment with the EU accession demands does not
solely depend on interdependency of the EU and domestic factors (as
it was explained by the Schimmelfennig and Sedelmeier theory of
Europeanization), but rather it also substantially depends on
influence of other international factors, namely the influence of
Russia and China in the Western Balkan region. The state's
possibility to choose the policies of alternatives instead of
opportunities i.e. to cooperate with other international factors
which do not question political legitimacy of the domestic ruling
elites nor do they interfere into internal political affairs, has
significantly affected reduction of euphoria for the advance in the
EU accession process with the domestic political leaders. The
current EU foreign policy in the form of the enlargement process
more likely contains characteristics of charade in the process of
European integration of Montenegro. This particular point may be
witnessed not only when the case of Montenegro is taken into
consideration, but also when the rest of the Balkans is, in terms
of the EU enlargement policy that is, analysed.
