Summary/Abstract: In this paper we are going to describe the reasons and consequences of the social transformation under the impact of the political and economical changes in south-eastern Europe after the 90’s, with emphasis on Macedonia. A sociological analysis of the Macedonian society as a whole will be performed. The process of development of the multiethnic state and the contemporary civil society, the political culture of the citizens and the choices they have to make, the establishment of a civil society based on multiethnic values and common respect, will be our main focus in this paper. Also, we will present the latest political crisis and the lack of political dialog between ethnic Albanians and Macedonians. A special analysis will be made on the latest crisis between Macedonian government and opposition parties, which are threatening the euro-integration processes. This also deepens the economic crisis and endangers the weak interethnic relations in the country.
