Abstract

Non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and their legal status have not been a subject of much investigation. They are playing an increasing political role on the international scene, and their position in relation to international law is generally regarded as important but informal. Their actual legal status has focus on human rights law. From an aspect of international decision-making, non-governmental organisation is an important form of public participation that can strengthen the flawed legitimacy of the state system of international law. When it comes to Republic of Macedonia, NGOs are still a relatively new component of Macedonia's political landscape. In the last 50 years, independent, citizen-based initiatives were discouraged in the Republic of North Macedonia, except in government-sanctioned and government-controlled areas. Even though most NorthMacedonian NGOs are relatively young, in the recent years, the role of the NGOs is much more strenghtened, that brings the dilema if their interferences made an impact in national internal affairs.
