The Western Balkans have had a unique and complex negotiation process with the European Union. Montenegro and Serbia are two countries whose negotiation process has been most successful. This comparative case study wants to examine which rewards and warnings the Union has used on the countries and identify which similarities and differences inapplication there are. What the study further wants is to explain how the structure can help in understanding of the negotiation process. The study uses Gateva's stage structured conditionality model as an analysis tool to answer the study's questions. The result shows that the EU used similar rewards and warnings on Montenegro and Serbia and that the biggest difference is that the Union financially sanctioned Serbia more often. It is clear that the Union used the structure to varying degrees and that it comes as a result of countries meeting slightly different conditions. This may explain the differences in the negotiation process.

Syftet med uppsatsen är via kvalitativ innehållsanalys undersöka vad Svenska Dagbladet rapporterade om kriget i Kosovo, samt hur kriget gestaltades via ledarsidorna under krigets samtid. Jag har delat upp kriget i 4 perioder. Under varje period presenteras vad som stod på agendan i tidningen om just Kosovokriget. Sedan analyserades de två första ledarsidorna under varje period. För att besvara min första frågeställning tillämpades dagordningsteorin; Vad presenteras på dagordningen i Svenska Dagbladet om kriget i Kosovo, samt hur rapporteringen skiljde sig över tid. Till den andra frågeställningen tillämpades gestaltningsteorin; Hur framställer (gestaltar) Svenska Dagbladet sina nyheter om kriget i Kosovo via ledarsidorna? Via databasen retriver.se har jag samlat mitt empiri.

Using Eli Gateva’s theory of the EU enlargement’s conditionality and the balance in the incitement structure between the terms of rewards and threats, the purpose of the study is to examine the EU commission’s reports of the ongoing negotiation process with Serbia and Montenegro. Furthermore, the study discusses Serbia’s and Montenegro’s relative positions concerning an EU-membership. Through a content analysis of the EU commission’s 2020 reports on Serbia and Montenegro, the study examines how the EU has used rewards and threats on Serbia and Montenegro, and what differences and similarities exist. The study finds that the EU has used different forms of rewards and threats according to Eli Gateva’s Model to conform the respective countries in the EU’s preferred direction. The study mostly discovered similarities but also some differences in how the EU has used rewards and threats on Serbia and Montenegro. The study also finds that Montenegro appears to be closer to a membership than Serbia.

The achievements of Dvorak, Borodin and Cajkovskij among others served as models for the first Serbian symphonies. Their themes were often based on authentic folk tunes or on tunes composed in folk spirit, and they demanded thematic work of primarily variational type, thereby producing looser and sometimes rhapsodic structures. Amold Schönberg was not alone in expressing his distaste for such \'folkloristic symphonies\' and their \'static treatment of folklore, but the public and many composers in different countries were sensitive to their melodic, rhythmic and harmonic richness, wide emotional span and lyrical charm. This different kind of symphony had a decisive influence on Serbian composers who wished to create a national school of their own.

The aUthor of the book investigates the innovative processes in the Serbian music between 1945 and 1965, taking into due consideration the factor of tradition and the wider European context of musical development.
