Summary/Abstract: The paper analyzes models of economic development of the Western Balkans including: Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro, Kosovo and Macedonia in the period 1952-1984 and first decade of the 21st century. The primary goal is to identify common elements and similarities, which could be the basis for considering the justification of profiling a joint regional strategy. The paper proves the hypothesis that the models of economic development in these countries are similar, or that have the necessary and sufficient number of common elements that seem worth profiling the common regional strategy.
