This book considers the extent to which EU cohesion policy and
related pre-accession instruments are contributing to the
development of more compound polities in south east Europe and,
specifically, promoting multi-level governance. In this respect,
there are two points of departure: the first is the argument that
the EU is a highly compound polity that tends to pull member (and
candidate) states in this direction; the second is the considerable
literature that links EU cohesion policy to the promotion of
multi-level governance. Following this, we have chosen a range of
south east European states whose period of engagement with the EU
generally differs: Greece, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia,
F.Y.R. Macedonia and Turkey. The case studies reveal that EU
cohesion policy has created more compound polities but that
system-wide multi-level governance remains weak and central
governments are still prominent. However, there are interesting and
potentially important developments in relation to particular
features of multi-level governance, not least in states whose
engagement with the EU in this sphere is relatively new. This book
was published as a special issue of Southeast European and Black
Sea Studies.
