Summary/Abstract: At the end of the XX and the beginning of the XXI century it is proposed that the discourse be a social and institutional norm, convention, rules and strategies applied in the process of creating the text and the statement. In that context, the discourse of self-identification of the Balkan peoples after the break-up of Yugoslavia was created. These political changes in the Balkans have led to the actualization and modernization of the language (code) and the national and cultural discourses of the Balkan states, in the form of transpositional and transgressive processes related to the creation of new national ideas.
