The Republic of Macedonia has implemented several steps in the direction of establishment of sustainable decentralized system, while municipalities with the support of the financial instruments and pre-accession assistance have enhanced their capacities for promotion of the sustainable local and regional development. Mainstreaming the European dimension in the decentralization process and expanding the role of local governments in the EU integration process is of a great importance for local and regional economic development and will provide an added value to the process. In this context, policies for sustainable local and regional development timely mobilize all resources in the direction of economic development and quality of life of all citizens through creation of collective values on local and regional level and support the cooperation among stakeholders on all levels.
Regarding the fact that policy for balanced local and regional development in the Republic of Macedonia has been implemented for more than a decade, it is clear that there is a need for looking back at the achievements and challenges in the past period and to define future strategic perspectives. In this context, the aim of this paper is to explore developments and perspectives of the decentralization and local and regional development policy and to offer future policy recommendations in order to provide an effective role in the reaction of the local needs and priorities, thus contributing to the delivery of national development plans for achievement of the national priorities and objectives and in fulfillment of the EU accession standards.
Key words: decentralization, local and regional development, EU accession
