Abstract

The end of the Cold War brought the triumph of neoliberal ideology and profoundly altered the structure of the international system and order. The states emerging from the dissolution of the SFRY, as a part of the former Eastern Bloc, faced a multidimensional crisis in the post-Cold War period — institutional, identitarian, axiological, and economic. The consequences of war, the absence of adequate economic and institutional capacities, and the lack of historical experience in market competition contributed to the emergence of a transitional vacuum.
