Summary/Abstract: Majority of the problems related to the term “Western Balkans Identity” stems from the indefiniteness of what exactly is implied by this problematic and contextualised concept. The author points out that the instability in naming this area is also obvious in the creation of a particular identity. In the author’s opinion, Western Balkans is not a region that could have common identity based on certain number of common characteristics
