European Union, Three Seas Initiative, economies in transition

Sažetak
In the conditions of the world market, after the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and the beginning of the third millennium, the global market is organized on the basis of new economic and political groups. Totalitarian regimes are disappearing, new countries and nations are born, large new global markets are being opened. All of these facts raise the question about the world governance based on these new circumstances. The European Union, as one of the forms of European countries unification, is facing a problem related to its functioning and development. The fact that the EU consists of highly developed economies, but also of several economies in transition, imposes the need for new thinking about the unity of so diversified economies. The issues of: economics, politics, civil society, human relations, human rights, democracy and others have their foundations in knowledge and the level of education of the society. Knowledge is a key factor of development. It must be understood by politicians who govern the European nations. The former East-West relations widened the difference between the developed and transition economies. The idea to establish new North-South relations can not only relieve negative tensions arising from the East-West, but with time it can reduce them. Croatia and Poland put forward an initiative to link economies in the triangle: the Adriatic, the Baltic and the Black Sea. It is called the Three Seas initiative, which covers 12 countries, of which only Austria was not within the communist totalitarian regime. Thus, the Three Seas initiative has a special significance, not only for the relations in the European Union, but also for the whole world development policy. The idea of the Three Seas was presented on 29 September 2015 by the President of the Republic of Croatia on the preparatory meeting on the side-lines of the UN General Assembly in New York. The goal of the initiative is to strengthen the overall Central European cooperation, creating neither new international organizations nor new mechanisms of cooperation. The expected advantages and potential disadvantages of this initiative will be the subject of the research presented in this paper.  558 The aim of the work is collate and evaluate factors that can support or weaken the Three Seas initiative. In this paper the research methods used were: the methods of the analysis of strategic documents, the historical method and the methods of analysis and synthesis. Moreover the multicriteria analysis of the level of development of the project's initiators economies was used.
