englischThe European Union and its member states have developed a complex web of policies towards the countries and regions in the EU’s immediate and wider neighbourhood. In the wake of the upheavals in the Arab world these policies have been increasingly brought into question. A reassessment of European neighbourhood policies requires a comprehensive understanding of their making, implementation and effectiveness.

This volume provides a multi-perspective analysis of European policies towards the regions in the EU’s vicinity, including North Africa, the Middle East, and the Gulf region, as well as the Balkans, Russia, the Black Sea region, the South Caucasus, and Central Asia.

Special attention is given to the various actors in the European policy-making process and their often diverging perceptions of the neighbouring regions. The volume also examines the interaction processes, such as Europeanization, that are occurring among member states, EU institutions, and target countries. Furthermore, the volume offers a critical review and further development of analytical concepts in order to comprehend the both fragmented and interwoven character of European neighbourhood policies.

»eine systematische und facettenreiche Analyse der nachbarschaftlichen Beziehungen. Die verschiedenen theoretischen, methodologischen und analytischen Konzepte stellen einen Fortschritt zur Entwicklung einer integrierten Theorie der europäischen Außenpolitik dar.«
Christoph Schnellbach, Welt Trends 87/12

»Die Lektüre des Bandes ist ein Gewinn für alle, die sich für Planung, Praxis, Probleme und Performanz der Beziehungen zu Europas Nachbarschaft interessieren. Das Buch kann aber darüber hinaus auch denjenigen empfohlen werden, die sich mit europäischer Außen- und Sicherheitspolitik generell sowie mit der Akteursqualität der EU auf internationaler Ebene befassen.«
Carolin Rüger, Politische Studien 446/12
