Abstract: The paper presents the results of the author's research in the postsocialist transition of the Balkan societies. It presents a summary of the results of transition in the given societies within the last 20 years. After singling out the inherent limitations of the strategy of dependent modernization, which has brought about the peripherization of economy, society and culture of the Balkan nations, the paper endeavours to give its contribution to the search for an alternative development model. It is precisely in the social democratic development strategy that the author sees the alternative to the contemporary neliberal strategy as it is within such a model that a socially responsible transition can be carried out.
