Sažetak
After achieving candidate status for EU membership, Croatia is facing the challenge of the next phase of relations with EU. Until recently its internal goal was to catch up with the remaining candidate countries (Romania and Bulgaria). Presently the target is to become ready for integration by the end of 2007 and full membership in 2009, while the key issue is to prepare the country successfully for negotiations and membership and examine in advance the economic impacts of future membership while attempting to avoid (or minimise) negative consequences. The paper aims to analyse the economic aspects of the pre-accession process and the prospects and challenges of Croatia’ s fast track integration after candidate status is achieved. It focuses on preparations for negotiations and negotiating structures in Croatia. The paper is based on some comparative analyses and the author’ s practical experiences gained in the accession process.
