Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is to point to the fact that economic dialogue in the Balkans is a condition of survival of the Balkan counties in the process of globalization. The meaning of an economic dialogue is to improve inter-regional cooperation in production and trade and to research the possibilities of strategy creation for joint presentation on the European and world market. Since Balkan countries are completely turned to the European Union; some as members and some as pretenders to membership; the mutual dialogue may benefit and improve their European positions. As the greatest and most powerful political and economic integration in Europe and the world; the European Union in its politics of expansion gives advantage to those countries which are able to develop with their surroundings quality good neighborly and economic relations. The ability of the countries to mutually cooperate is the guarantee that they will manage in wider and more complex surroundings such as the European Union. This fact especially has to be taken into consideration by the Balkan countries in transition; who see their future within the European Union; whereas at the same time in the improvement in mutual cooperation and cooperation with the rest of the Balkan counties; the initiatives prevail over achieved results.
