Abstract

This paper addresses the perspective of the European Union as a
differentiated integration, where the Member States participate in certain common
policies and choose certain policies they are (or not) willful or able to participate.
The European integration experience shows such cases – the European Monetary
Union and the Schengen Agreement. The objective of this paper is to explore the
differentiated integration model in the Balkan context, within the circles of
integration, and thus, to identify a model of “multi-speed” Balkans. The main
research intention is to explore the significance of the EU as a “multi-speed” model
of integration. In the end, this paper concludes that the model of multi-speed Europe
could restrictively be applied on the Balkans, introducing four integration speeds, or
integration orbits.
