Abstract

Studying the adoption of the European spatial discourse, the transfer and the (re)production of ideas, principles and visions concerning the European space, as well as the impact of European spatial development documents, support the idea of Europe as a spatial entity. The focus of this chapter is the transfer of EU spatial discourse (using the example of the European Spatial Development Perspective) to both Bulgarian and Serbian spatial planning documents at the national level and on the impact of this process of Europeanisation of spatial planning in the countries at stake. Some initial results show that, in the case of Serbia, the current pre-accession period is much more important in organising and reforming the legal and instrumental framework of spatial planning than was observed in the case of Bulgaria. The latter country only initiated active reforms in the definition of its spatial planning policy several years after its accession to the EU as a member state.
