Specifically, the aim is to account for similarities and differences in the reform paths of Slovenia, Romania, Croatia, and Serbia. In each country, in fact, the influence of the EU policies has been differently mediated by national factors that, broadly conceived, may be considered as expressing the legacies of the past regimes. In some cases, these legacies challenged judicial reforms and inhibited the influence of the EU; in other cases, they were positively overcome by following the route suggested by the EU. Some explanatory factors for these differences will be proposed drawing from democratization studies, Europeanization literature, and comparative judicial systems. The book focuses on countries having different status vis-a` -vis the EU and differently involved, in term of timing, in the EU accession process: some of them are new member states entered in 2004 (Slovenia) or in 2007 (Romania); others were, until recently, acceding countries (Croatia) or candidates to the membership (Serbia). This comparison allows investigation of the power of EU conditionality in different phases of the EU enlargement process. 410 0$aContributions to Political Science,$x2198-7289 606 $aComparative politics 606 $aLaw?Europe 606 $aEuropean Economic Community literature 606 $aPrivate international law 606 $aConflict of laws 606 $aComparative Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911040 606 $aEuropean Law$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R20000 606 $aEuropean Integration$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W33010 606 $aPrivate International Law, International & Foreign Law, Comparative Law $3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R14002 615 0$aComparative politics. 615 0$aLaw?Europe. 615 0$aEuropean Economic Community literature. 615 0$aPrivate international law. 615 0$aConflict of laws. 615 14$aComparative Politics. 615 24$aEuropean Law. 615 24$aEuropean Integration. 615 24$aPrivate International Law, International & Foreign Law, Comparative Law . 676 $a347.496 700 $aDallara$b Cristina$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0610229 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483452403321 996 $aDemocracy and Judicial Reforms in South-East Europe$92851655 997 $aUNINA
