This book provides a theoretical overview and understanding of the modern Macedonian political events through its history, as well as a comprehensive analysis of the events in the period of the early 1990s that led to the creation of an independent Republic of Macedonia. The analysis will also determine the role of the Macedonian political elite in the creation of an independent Republic. A special segment of this book will focus on foreign policy and diplomacy, which is significant in all the events that took place in relation to the young republic. This book is conceptualized in a way that it can be used as additional material for the international law and political studies courses at universities, as well as for researchers and practitioners in the field of international politics, especially those interested in Balkan politics.
