| Title | EU Conditionality in Serbia: Serbian Patterns of Compliance and the Domestic Impact of EU Enlargement Policy |
| Summary | This thesis examines the domestic impact of conditionality in Serbia, focusing particularly on the Serbian political spectrum and how such impact influences the patterns of compliance of Serbia’s political elites with EU conditions. The EU’s influence in domestic politics has developed significantly since the inception of enlargement law to its full transformation into an enlargement policy. The development of the Serbian political spectrum since the fall of Milošević in 2000 accurately portrays the extent to which EU conditionality impacts domestic factors; however, the existing literature on EU conditionality in Serbia underplays the importance of such impact in determining why the EU’s enlargement policy continuously fails to bringing about EU rule transfer. This thesis argues that the domestic impact of conditionality in Serbia produces weak patterns a compliance which undermine the effectiveness of conditionality as a means to promote EU rule transfer. |
