Republic of Macedonia is a small country in the core of the Balkans. From 1945 until 1991 it went trough intensive urban development within the Yugoslav socialist system where 85–90% of present dwelling stock and residential buildings were built. Significant part of it built in 70s and 80s is still in good condition. The rest of it built in 50s and 60s (until 1963) needs to be subject of serious professional and institutional consideration in order to establish applicable methodology and management of reconstruction to offer different options of choice and possibilities both for their present tenants and future customers.

After the break down of former S.F.R. of Yugoslavia,. Republic of Macedonia is going again through dynamic process of transition coping with complexity of problems and necessary reforms on the way to join EU.
