L’integration européene des Balkans occidentaux
The European integration and the Western Balkans

Summary/Abstract: Always under the sign of complexity, the relationships between European Union and West Balkans have known an remarkable evolution in the last 15 years, starting with certain expectations from West Balkans and finishing with a clear will to integrate them in the Union. However, the action of the Union towards post-yugoslav States and Albania rest marked, nowadays, by a strong tension between this will of integration and the limits for this effective realisation. This explains, on one hand, the ambiguity that European Union shows in the definition of an integration strategy for West Balkans and, on the other hand, favourite the notable lateness in the production of integration policies of these States.
