Abstract

The authors analyze historical process of the occurrence and development of European Union, political aspects of EU expansion, the impact of EU expansion to regional and cohesion policy as the most important policies of EU. Main goal of this paper is to accept that the aim of EU expansion policy is joining the European continent into one organizational whole in economic, security and cultural aspect, which is directed and implemented by the institutions of European Union. Based on the analysis we can conclude that the process of joining the European Union for the countries that join it is the process of complete transition of states, it is the first peaceful, voluntary manner to join the European people in one community and under one government in European history, which is achieved by two main manners: deepening and expansion. The process of European integration represents a unique chance for modernization and democratization of all countries that join European Union.
