Abstract: The paper places in a broad historical perspective the transition to a market economy in the successor countries of former Yugoslavia. Part 1 describes historical factors and the international environment. Ethnically, the Yugoslav Federation of the socialist period was a country composed mainly of South Slavs, but from the historical and cultural points of view, it bridged Central Europe (Slovenia and Croatia) and the Balkans (FR Yugoslavia and other republics). Part 2 examines the process of transition to a market economy in each successor country.
