Serbia Matters presents policy essays on Serbia's post-Milosevic era written by internationally recognised authors, policymakers, academics and political analysts actively engaged in the Balkans discourse. Since 2000 Serbia has moved from a decade of wars and delayed transition towards European integration. The book assesses the country's present state of affairs, recent achievements and future challenges. It also offers pertinent analyses and compelling arguments as to why Serbia's accession to the European Union matters as much for Belgrade as it does for the whole Western Balkans. This book is written with the aim to persuade both Serbia's leaders and citizens and those Member States of the European Union who are hit by 'enlargement fatigue' that the country ought to have its rightful place in the EU and that there is no alternative to the reform process.

Excerpt from Serbia and Europe: 1914-1920 This book is to be considered as an attempt to exhibit the whole policy of Serbia during the war. It is not a study of Serbian politics, but simply a collection of articles published in La Serbie in Geneva (Switzerland) between 1916 and 1919. Although limited, the collection gives full information about the chief points of Serbian policy and the ideal which has guided us in our national struggle. We think that it might be interesting for British readers to obtain for once an authentic explanation of Serbia's policy - as Serbian publicists and politicians conceive it. The diversity of collaborators does not rob the book of its character of an organic whole, which is another proof of the unity and straightforwardness of our policy. One essential feature characterizes indeed the whole attitude of the Serbian people, before and during the world conflict, and this is their clear vision of the German peril and the firm and fixed determination of Serbia to resist it at all costs, and to make the greatest sacrifices in defence of her political and economic independence. Europe did not understand Serbia's policy, and when, on certain occasions, she did display more comprehension of our affairs, it was done with ill grace and evident reluctance. The fault of European diplomacy did not lie in ignorance of the existence of the German peril - Paris, London and Petrograd were well aware of it - but rather in its under-estimation of German aims in the East.

Following Serbia's acceptance as a candidate for EU membership, its agriculture and rural issues will receive major attention as agriculture is an important activity in Serbia, especially in the low-income rural areas. This raises questions such as: what will be the main challenges of EU membership for Serbia? What will EU membership imply for the structure and performance of the agri-food supply chain? How should Serbia address the adjustment process to comply with EU rules and face economic market forces best? This book explores the consequences of preparing for EU accession for Serbia's agricultural policies and its agri-food supply chain. The book presents a comprehensive description of Serbia's agricultural and food sectors, agricultural policies, trade, environmental, animal and plant health issues, and also addresses budgetary consequences of EU membership for both Serbia and the EU.

Five years after the fall of Slobodan Milosevic, it is still not clear where Serbia is heading. Indeed, it is not yet clear what, or even where Serbia is. Serbia's borders and statehood remain open questions: the future status of Kosovo is unresolved and the survival of the State Union with Montenegro in doubt. As long as Serbia does not know what and where it is, its progress towards EU integration will be impeded. The political agenda remains heavily burdened by these open questions, and the baneful legacies of Milosevic's misrule. These divert politicians' attention from the equally demanding challenges of preparing for EU integration. Serbia needs to redefine its national identity and statehood in order to become capable of integrating into the EU. Serbia matters. With a population of 7.5 million, it is by far the largest country in the Western Balkans, and, as such, of crucial importance for the stability of the whole region. While the Serbs want to 'join Europe', they still do not fully trust it, and the feeling is reciprocated. Both sides now need to work to overcome their mutual incomprehension. This Chaillot Paper aims to make a start on that.
