The implications of external actors? policy in the region for its Euro-Atlantic integration, its security, and stability are examined and discussed. In assessing the importance of the post-Yugoslav states for the EU and US and the current trend of disengagement by these two democratic actors in the region, answers are revealed regarding the question whether we are seeing a new Eastern Question emerging in the post-Yugoslav states. Likewise, when looking at the role of Russia, China, and Turkey in the region?and in contrast to European and US policies?, it becomes obvious to what extent the region, once again, is becoming the playground of Great Power games and wider geopolitical strategic interests. The analytical time frame covers the period 1991?2018. The changes in the foreign policies of great powers are explored as they relate to the institutional set-up of the region. For instance, do the changes affect the EU?s hegemony in the region? Do Russia, China, and Turkey actively contribute to changing the rules of the game in the region?be it the accession process or regional cooperation? 410 0$aBalkan Politics and Society 606 $aGreat Powers 606 $aGroßmächte 606 $aJugoslawien 606 $aPolitics 606 $aPolitik 606 $aPost-Yugoslavia 606 $aYugoslavia 615 4$aGreat Powers 615 4$aGroßmächte 615 4$aJugoslawien 615 4$aPolitics 615 4$aPolitik 615 4$aPost-Yugoslavia 615 4$aYugoslavia 676 $a327.73049709049 702 $aDz?ankic?$b Jelena$4edt 702 $aKeil$b Soeren$4edt 702 $aStahl$b Bernhard$4edt 702 $aRebic Avgustin$b Jakob$cDr.$4ctb 702 $aBassuener$b Kurt$4ctb 702 $aAssenova$b Margarita$4ctb 702 $aS?abic?$b Zlatko$4ctb 702 $aIstenic?$b Sas?a$4ctb 702 $aPejic?$b Nina$4ctb 702 $aArkan$b Zeynep$4ctb 702 $aBojinovi?-Fenko$b Ana$4ctb 702 $aS?elo S?abic?$b Senada$4ctb 702 $aMladenov$b Mladen$4ctb 702 $aBa?a$b Bojan$4ctb 702 $aMorrison$b Kenneth$4ctb 702 $aKoneska$b Cvete$4ctb 702 $aHuskic?$b Adnan$4ctb 702 $aKrasniqi$b Ge?zim$4ctb 702 $aSabic$b Lenada Selo$4ctb 702 $aKolar$b Nikica$4ctb 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910960405303321 996 $aA new eastern question$93977690 997 $aUNINA
