This changed in 2001 with a so-called “war”, which ended quite quickly, partly thanks to international intervention. Although armed conflicts in the region have not recurred in a prolonged form, almost every year new short-lived disturbances, protests, and incidents arise. This article analyses the conflict’s dynamics from the establishment of independent Macedonia to the present day as North Macedonia continues to develop and implement positive reforms for minority integration. It emphasizes the root causes of the dispute, which remain unresolved, as the Albanian minority is growing in numbers, while Macedonians, whose population is falling, observe the changes with uncertaintyMakedonija je v devetdesetih letih prejšnjega stoletja veljala za oazo miru na Balkanu, saj je bila edina država razpadle Jugoslavije, kjer ni bilo oboroženega konflikta, kar se je spremenilo leta 2001 s tako imenovano vojno, ki se je končala hitro, tudi zaradi mednarodne intervencije. Oboroženi konflikti se v daljši obliki niso več ponovili, vendar skoraj vsako leto vzniknejo novi, kratek čas trajajoči, nemiri, protesti in incidenti. Članek analizira dinamiko konflikta od nastanka neodvisne Makedonije do danes, ko se Makedonija razvija, tudi na področju integracije manjšine, in v ospredje postavi vzroke spora, ki se ne razrešijo, saj se albanska manjšina številčno krepi, Makedonci, ki pa jih je vse manj, pa spremembe negotovo opazujejoTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaMinistrstvo za obrambo RS
