For twenty years, the Western Balkans were promised Europe. What they got instead was stability, and the leaders who sold it. Citizens who fought for democracy saw the European Union as their ally, only to watch it lose interest in enlargement and ask the region for one thing: no new conflicts. In the name of peace, Europe ended up backing the very leaders who were taking democracy apart. The phenomenon has a name: stabilitocracy. The Time of Stabilitocracy asks how the promise of EU membership became a deal with strongmen, and what the region paid for it.
An award-winning documentary produced by European Western Balkans and Panorama Films. It premiered in Belgrade in December 2022 and has been screened at the European Parliament in Brussels and in other cities.
