As it is known, Kosovo after the liberation, as well as now is in the period of transition. The transition from a political point of view represents the transition from a one-party system to a pluralist party system. Meanwhile, from the economic aspect, the transition represents the transition from a planned and directed economy to a market economy, where economic laws, especially the law of value (supply and demand) operate freely, without state intervention. Therefore, since the liberation (2000) until today, political pluralism and market economy operate in Kosovo.As is the case, Kosovo after the liberation (last war), until independence (2008), was under international civil-military administration, led by UNMIK (herein: United Nations Mission in Kosovo). During this period, the sole maker, implementer and bearer of macroeconomic development policies was UNMIK, first through the Economic Policy Council, and later through Pillar IV. In this context, it should be noted that the local institutions and temporary bodies had few and defined competencies in the economic sphere. Thus, the presence of the international factor in this period, created new political, social and economic conditions in Kosovo. Therefore, the success or failure of macroeconomic development policies in Kosovo, in this period, has depended mainly, not to say completely, on the international factor, and very little on the local factor, not to mention at all. For this reason, we decided to review the economic development of Kosovo after Independence, to see the effects of the implementation of macroeconomic development policies by our institutions, respectively by the Governments of Kosovo. In the post-liberation period, especially after independence, political issues over economic ones dominated continuously in all periods, as well as today. This situation has led to economic development being given less importance than political issues. Thus, economic development remained a secondary issue, compared to the political problems that Kosovo was challenged and faced in the last two decades, which problem is still dominant today. Although at this stage of socio-economic development, Kosovo made efforts to eliminate the recurrences (elements) of the socialist system, both politically and socio-economically, by creating a democratic society with a pluralistic political system, supported by in a market economy, with property pluralism, favoring private sector property.There is no doubt that the new social and economic system presented a problem in itself, because it had to move from a system with a planned economy, under which Kosovo had developed for about 50 years, to a system with a market economy. Of course, this metamorphosis of the socio-economic system was not easy for Kosovo. However, even in these circumstances, the institutions of Kosovo, in the period after independence, created a legal and economic infrastructure on which the functioning of the market economy was based. Therefore, based on the principles of market economy, in the post-independence period, many privately owned economic enterprises were established, mainly small ones (mini entities) and medium-sized enterprises, public enterprises were reactivated, and the he fundamentals of the implemented economic policy subsystems were built, such as: fiscal policy, monetary policy (especially credit one, because Kosovo did not and now has no right to implement monetary policy regarding the issuance of money, which is entitled only to the European Central Bank) and foreign policy. However, even in this regard, the economic development of Kosovo after independence faced many challenges and problems. It should be noted that economic development in the post-independence period is characterized by unfavorable flows, processes and trends, which is the result of an inconsistently implemented policy. This is a consequence of the implementation of an ad hoc economic policy, without vision and without long-term development strategies. Global macroeconomic indicators best indicate unfavorable macroeconomic trends in Kosovo. Kosovo's economy in the post-independence period is characterized by: high foreign trade deficit, high unemployment rate, Gross Domestic Product per capita lowest in the region, tax evasion, economic smuggling and organized crime, excessive nepotism, and above all corruption. In this context, it should be emphasized that all these macroeconomic indicators mentioned above, each in its own form, have been expressed in the slowdown of economic development in the post-independence period in Kosovo. Therefore, based on these phenomena, we decided to make a more complex analysis and review of Kosovo's economic development in the post-independence period. In our paper, we will analyze some of the most relevant macroeconomic indicators, which express the dynamics and level of economic development of Kosovo in this period. On this occasion we will examine: Dynamics, achieved level of development and economic structure, unemployment and economic transactions of Kosovo with other countries of the world
