The Future of the Peace Process in Macedonia

Bu makale Makedonya’daki demokratik oluşumun bugünkü durumuna bir genel bakış içerir. Makedon-Arnavut kökenli etnik bir çatışma tehlikesi var mıdır? Yazar bağımsız bir Kosova’nın Makedonya’daki iç siyaseti olumsuz etkileyebilecek bir tehlike olup olmadığını analiz etmektedir. Makedonya’daki etnik ilişkiler Kosova’nın yeni statüsünden etkilenmemelidir. Kosova’yı ilgilendiren siyasal sorunlar olsa bile Makedonya’nın endişelenmek için çok az sebebi vardır. Tüm siyasal seçkinler, zaman zaman seçim sonuçlarına ya da bazı hükümetlerin çalışma yöntemine duyulan memnuniyetsizliğe rağmen siyasal sistemi kabul etmektedirler. Makedonya’nın her şeye rağmen Avrupa’yla birleşme sürecine devam etmesi beklenmektedir.

Makedonyada Barış Sürecinin Geleceği

This article overviews the current state of affairs within the democratic consolidation in Macedonia. Is there danger of an inter-ethnic Macedonian-Albanian conflict? The author also analyses whether there is a potential danger of an independent Kosovo negatively affecting internal politics in Macedonia. Ethnic relations in Macedonia are not supposed to be affected by the new status of Kosovo. Even if there are political complications concerning Kosovo, Macedonia has few reasons to worry. All political elites accept the political system despite occasional dissatisfaction with electoral results or the way in which specific governments function and it is expected that Macedonia will instead continue on its Euro-integration path.
