Rezensionen

'This fascinating book looks at actorness of the EU from a novel norm diffusion perspective. Its originality lies in the combination of a focus on the EU as norm diffuser and a focus on ASEAN as a norm recipient. Laura Allison clearly demonstrates that actorness lies in the eye of the beholder and therefore ASEAN actually contributes to shaping the EU's actorness. The book also has clear policy implications as it shows the need for a more symmetrical relationship between the EU and ASEAN.'

Luk Van Langenhove, United Nations University, Bruges, Belgium

'This book is a worthy contribution to international relations research on norm diffusion, perception and regionalism. Going beyond 'power' conceptualisations, the book deconstructs the idea of 'norm diffusion' and constructs useful analytical frameworks to assess and evaluate the extent of norm diffusion from the EU to ASEAN. The book will be of interest to students of regionalism, EU foreign policy, ASEAN, and international relations.'
