Opis: European Neighbourhood Policy and the Democratic Values of the EU - Narine Ghazaryan

This book offers a legal analysis of the European Neighbourhood Policy (the ENP) as it applies to developing relations with the EU's neighbours. It explores the legal aspects of this policy, including ENP competence matters, institutional arrangements and substantive policy issues, using international relations theory as the starting point in defining the EU's role as a political actor. The book focuses on the adequacy of the ENP legal framework for transposing the EU's democratic values and upholding its political image. In this connection, the book also features an analysis of EU democratic values as they are intended to be understood by its neighbours. The relevant legal framework of this policy and its implementation in the states of the South Caucasus (Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan) is evaluated, revealing the effects of the ENP in their democratic processes and the shortfalls of the ENP conditionality.1 Introduction 1.1 Aims and Approaches 1.2 Structure 2 Democracy Promotion, EU External Relations Law and the ENP Objectives 2.1 Introduction 2.2 Democracy Promotion and EU External Relations Objectives 2.3 ENP Objectives: Democracy Promotion within a Security Framework? 2.4 Conclusion 3 Legal Aspects of ENP: Institutions, Competence and Instruments 3.1 Introduction 3.2 Pre- and Post-Lisbon Institutional Aspects 3.3 EU External Competence and ENP 3.4 Instruments and Methodology 3.5 Eastern Partnership: Another European Economic Area? 3.6 Conclusion 4 Democratic Values of the EU 4.1 Introduction 4.2 The Normative Basis for Democracy Promotion: From Rome to Lisbon 4.3 Identification of Democratic Values 4.4 The Precedent of Enlargement 4.5 Conclusion 5 EU Democratic Values and the ENP - Implementation in the South Caucasus I: Action Plans 5.1 Introduction 5.2 Action Plans and EU Democratic Values: A Realistic Plan for Reform? 5.3 Action Plan Implementation: Democratic Credentials 5.4 Conclusion 6 EU Democratic Values and the ENP - Implementation in the South Caucasus II: Monitoring and Assistance 6.1 Introduction 6.2 Monitoring Political Reform in the South Caucasus 6.3 Financial Assistance and the Democratic Values of the EU 6.4 Conditionality: Quo Vadis? 6.5 Conclusion 7 Conclusion
