本文讨论了与西巴尔干地区,特别是波斯尼亚和黑塞哥维那、塞尔维亚和黑山和科索沃的条件和伙伴关系原则以及当地所有权原则有关的主题。文章具体评估了这些西巴尔干国家面临的情感领土问题,认为国际社会应致力于促进当地对可持续政治过渡的意愿的自主权。鉴于《欧洲安全战略》和塞萨洛尼基峰会(2003 年)中规定了欧盟对西巴尔干地区的关注,并通过稳定与结盟进程得到发展,作者主张采取一种灌输地方自主权的伙伴关系方法。有人认为,这种方法更有可能对未解决的领土问题做出富有想象力和功能性的回应。在本文的第二部分,作者将伙伴关系的概念应用于波斯尼亚、塞尔维亚-黑山和科索沃面临的领土挑战。伙伴关系基于当地所有权和基于需求的响应性概念,而不是代顿、联合国第 1244 号决议和欧盟稳定与结盟进程规定的严格成文条件,更有可能解决西巴尔干地区持续存在的主要领土政治紧张局势。
This article addresses themes relating to the principles of conditionality and partnership, together with the principle of local ownership in the Western Balkans, notably in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia-Montenegro and Kosovo. Specifically assessing the emotive territorial questions facing these Western Balkan countries, the article posits that the international community should aim to promote local ownership in the will to sustainable political transition. Given the EU's focus on the Western Balkans as set out in the European Security Strategy and Thessaloniki summit (2003) and developed through the process of Stabilisation and Association, the author advocates a partnership approach that instils local ownership. It is argued that such an approach has a better chance of responding imaginatively and functionally to unresolved territorial questions. In the second section of this article the author applies the concept of partnership to the territorial challenges facing Bosnia, Serbia-Montenegro and Kosovo. Partnership, as based on the concepts of local ownership and needs-based responsiveness, as opposed to strictly codified conditionality set by Dayton, UN Resolution 1244 and the EU Stabilisation and Association process, is more likely to resolve the ongoing principal territorial political tensions in the Western Balkans.
