| Sommario/riassunto: | This book assesses European Union policies aimed at encouraging democratization in East Asia and the Mediterranean, addressing theoretical debates over the international dimensions of political change and the EU's characteristics as an international actor. The factors driving and inhibiting European democracy promotion policies are explored, and the EU's distinctive 'bottom-up' approach to political change is outlined. The book notes an evolution in Europeanpolicies, while arguing that the EU has failed to develop a fully comprehensive and coherent democracy promotion strategy. |
