Fighting Against Corruption by the European Union in North Macedonia

Öz

As Vachudova (2009) clarified that corruption is a big obstacle to the functioning of a market economy and, it also causes to enrichment of certain elite groups in a country. For this reason, the European Union (EU) is trying to promote good governance and fight against corruption among its Member States as well as in accession countries. Corruption is one of the significant obstacles in front of the strengthening democracy and economy of Western Balkan countries. (Komsuoglu & Kurtoglu Eskisar, 2015). North Macedonia is one of thethem which located in Central Eastern part of the Europe.The EU is using conditionality principle to promote good governance and fight against corruption in North Macedonia. In this paper, first, I would like to givethe details about the EU’s principle of conditionality with regard to promotion of good governance and fighting against corruption in accession countries. Second, I would like to address situation of corruption in North Macedonia before and after the accession process. Last, I would like to criticize whether the EU has success or not in North Macedonia to reach its purpose.
