Democratization in EU Foreign Policy (eBook, PDF)

New member states as drivers of democracy promotion
Redaktion: Berti, Benedetta; Popescu, Nicu; Mikulova, Kristina

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines the attempts of one group of young democracies, from Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), to channel this pro-democracy agenda into both national and European foreign policy and development support. It looks at how CEE is 'upstream' changing the EU on crucial policy issues as part of the common foreign and security policy. Furthermore, it tracks the process whereby imported ideas and norms are recycled for further export 'downstream', and how these concepts are received in countries outside of the EU including the post-Soviet space, the Western Balkans, the Middle East and North Africa region and Central Asia.
