Abstract

The present chapter discusses the evolution of the governance and planning system of North Macedonia. It does so by analysing the administrative and territorial subdivision of the country, the planning authorities in the multi-level governance system, and the main planning instruments produced at the different territorial levels. Particular attention is given to comparing the present situation with the system that existed in the former Yugoslavia, while also reflecting on the European influences in the period of post-socialist transition. The chapter concludes that, in North Macedonia, the remnants of the socialist past combined with the European integration requirements have given rise to a complex governance and planning system plagued by a lack of coordination and contested institutional competencies.
