Emergent regional co-operation in South East Europe: towards ‘ open regionalism’ ?

Regional cooperation in South East Europe is at a crossroads. Until now, it has been largely ascribed by outside forces, perceived as a condition related to the EU integration process, and approached from a stated-based viewpoint as an interstate construct. However, there are emergent trends which reframe regional cooperation as ‘ open regionalism’ , more achieved from within, and consisting of multi-actor, multilevel and multi-scalar processes forming a complex geometry of interlocking networks, with variable reach and multiple nodal points. This text critically explores these trends, addressing some of their cross-border, transnational and interregional dimensions, in the context of wider processes of regional integration.
