Human Rights and Democracy in EU Foreign Policy

The Cases of Ukraine and Egypt

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book investigates the disparity between rhetoric and performance in the European Union response to abuses of human rights and transgression of democracy. With the Arab spring putting the spotlight on the EU's self-portrait as committed to promoting global human rights and democracy, this book examines the paradoxes of its international posture and the inconsistencies and double standards of its policies.
