Abstract: | The European Union's Neighbourhood Policy is analysed here in the context of the European Union as an actor employing normative power in international politics. The European Neighbourhood Policy can be seen as a substitute for the Union's enlargement that has previously been the main vehicle for the Union's normative power in Europe. By relinquishing enlargement, the EU is in danger of losing its capacity for effectively stabilising its nearest neighbors as well as losing its legitimacy and justification in their eyes. |
