The Ideas and Practices of the European Union’s Structural Antidiplomacy
Author: Steffen Bay RasmussenPublisher: BRILL
ISBN: 900437292X
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
In The Ideas and Practices of the European Union’s Structural Antidiplomacy, Steffen Bay Rasmussen offers a comprehensive analysis of EU diplomacy that goes beyond the functioning of the European External Action Service and discusses the sui generis nature of the EU as a diplomatic actor, the forms of bilateral and multilateral representation as well as the actor identity, founding ideas and meta-practices of EU diplomacy. The book employs a novel theoretical approach that distinguishes the social structures of diplomacy from the practices and meta-practices of diplomacy. Comparing EU diplomacy to the two theoretically constructed ideal types of Westphalian diplomacy and utopian antidiplomacy, Steffen Bay Rasmussen concludes that the EU’s international agency constitutes a new form of diplomacy called structural antidiplomacy.

Tipologías de regiones en la Unión Europea y otros estudios (eBook)
Author: José Luis Luzón BenedictoPublisher: Edicions Universitat Barcelona
ISBN: 8447538028
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
Esta obra recoge una miscelánea de artículos de autores españoles y brasileños sobre desarrollo regional que demuestran que, en este aspecto, las experiencias de ambos países son cada vez más semejantes. Aunque el sistema socioeconómico imperante se basa en postulados neoliberales, con una disminución del papel de los estados en las tendencias del desarrollo, todavía perviven políticas regionales subsidiadas con fondos públicos que se resisten a desaparecer. Esta aseveración es válida tanto para España como para Brasil y puede aplicarse, en general, a toda Europa y América Latina. Medamérica, desde su fundación hace ya veinte años, ha tenido como objetivo tender puentes académicos entre Barcelona y América Latina mediante la publicación de libros, la organización de seminarios internacionales, la creación de convenios entre la Universidad de Barcelona y diversas instituciones de Brasil y México, y la realización de más de treinta tesis de doctorado.
