%X Sa£¿etak This article discusses to what extent meanings and discourses on ¡®EU membership¡¯ on the one hand and on the ¡®Balkans¡¯ on the other, have shifted within Western Balkan countries in the past few years as a result of financial crisis in the European Union. Focusing on Kosovo and Bosnia and Herzegovina, the article uses Derrida¡¯s deconstruction to problematize the return of terms such as ¡®Balkan¡¯ and ¡®Balkanized¡¯, as a way to explain failures of the economic system. The article concludes that in the case of BH and to a lesser extent in Kosovo, there has been a de-mythicization of the EU
