The project was implemented within the IDEAS programme of the Science Fund of the Republic of Serbia.

The project, led by Prof. Dr. Slobodan G. Markovich (Faculty of Political Sciences, University of Belgrade, and Institute for European Studies), brought together researchers from several scientific institutions, including the Institute for Balkan Studies SASA.

In total, nine monographs in Serbian and English were published, exploring various aspects of cultural exchange between Serbia and Europe from the 19th century to the present. The final volume, Serbia and the Balkans: Three Centuries of Embrace with Europe, published in September 2025, provides a comprehensive synthesis of the project’s four-year research outcomes.
