Abstract

In this paper we assess the situation with regard to post-conflict development and the perspectives in the province of Kosovo. In order to better comprehend the current political and economic situation that sustains in the region, we attempt a presentation of the historical background. Then, we present specific macro-economic and political indicators. The macro-economic indicators may provide us with a complete picture of the economic situation in the province. The political ones may explain the external and political environment as well as its prospects. We conclude with the factors and the means that will be important in sustaining development and political stability in the said geographical region.
