Sažetak
The contemporary European integration processes are accompanied by numerous theories and activities, confrontations or approvals that can conditionally be divided into two groups, depending on the starting point of examination of each aspect of integration. The principal differences are reflected in the approach to examination of the very phenomenon, regardless of whether it is analysed from an economic or political viewpoint and the extent of the obligatorily transferred part of national sovereignty to EU authorities. In the latest development of integration processes in the European Union and other European integrations, political, economic, social and cultural significance of the particularities of individual European countries has largely been taken into account; however, the activities were directed to transferring a part of economic and political sovereignty to joint EU bodies in order to function more effectively. It is important for future economic and social development of the Republic of Croatia to form economic and political connections with European and other world integrations, especially economic ones. Until the democratically oriented government of the Republic of Croatia came into power, many mistakes had been made by the earlier political system, which had been fully insulated from the European integration processes. On its way to Europe, Croatia did not receive adequate assistance and support of more developed Western countries until January 3rd, 2000, and this especially relates to the EU integrations that had jointly defined the guidelines Croatia needed to follow in order to access the social and economic system of the Western world and accept its values. The subject of this paper are the effects of EU accession and the consequences reflected on the economic situation in the country, as well as the good and bad sides of integration processes.
