Book excerpt: By establishing free trade for industrial products in 12 years, the European Union’s Association Agreements with countries in the Mediterranean region seek to promote accelerated economic growth. This paper reviews the literature and evaluates the economic benefits and costs for Tunisia, Morocco, Lebanon, Egypt, and Jordan. It concludes that the benefits could be substantial, but only if accompanied by deep supplementary reforms, including extending trade liberalization to services and agriculture and on a multilateral basis, improving the environment for foreign direct investment, ensuring an adequate fiscal and exchange rate policy response, and strengthening European Union assistance.

Book excerpt: Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) has a number of institutional implications for the transition countries of Central and Eastern Europe and selected Mediterranean countries that aspire to join the European Union (EU). After describing the current institutional framework for their relations with the EU, the paper examines two basic categories of institutional effects: those stemming from the need to satisfy the Maastricht convergence criteria before joining the euro area, and those stemming from the need to adopt the EU’s institutional and legal provisions in the area of EMU.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A keen analysis of the impact of European regionalism in the Mediterranean, focusing on the politics of representation and constructions of identity. The Mediterranean - as a region, as an area of EU policy and as a place on the fringe of a rapidly integrating Europe - has been a theoretically under-researched area. Containing empirical research on Greece, Malta and Morocco, this theory-led investigation into the political effects of the Mediterranean's symbolic geography, complements work done on the constitution of entities such as nations, Europe and the West. The Politics of Regional Identity draws on the field of critical IR and critical geopolitics to examine both the theoretical and empirical manifestations of these changing geopolitical images and discourses. This book will be of great interest to all students and scholars of politics, international relations and the European Union.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely book assesses national and supranational bilateral approaches to dealing with the rising tide of migration into the European Union via the Mediterranean Sea. International law and EU migration law specialists critically assess the legal tools adopted to engage with the ‘refugee crisis’. While the EU works to develop a unified approach to Mediterranean transit and origin countries, the authors argue that a crucial role should be accorded to individual states in finding a solution to this complex and sensitive situation.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a Foreword by Herman Van Rompuy, President of the European Council The European Union’s neighbouring countries to the south and the east of the Mediterranean have never been able to establish a regional form of integration of their own. Instead, the Maghreb, Mashreq and Israel have always vied for a stake in the EU internal market. At the beginning of the European integration process, the Mediterranean neighbours were offered few economic advantages. Confronted with emerging trading powers such as China and Russia in the 1990s, the EU changed tack and sought increased levels of integration of the Mediterranean countries into its internal market. This book offers the first comprehensive overview and analysis of policies and instruments employed to integrate the Mediterranean countries in the EU internal market. In particular, the author examines the Euro-Med Partnership, the European Neighbourhood Policy, the ‘Barcelona Process: the Union for the Mediterranean’, the Euro-Med Association Agreements, and the ENP Action Plans. Combined with a thorough analysis of the most relevant case law of the European Court of Justice concerning the Euro-Med movement of goods, services, capital and persons, the author establishes a complete and up-to-date state of the integration of the Mediterranean countries with respect to the four above-mentioned fundamental freedoms of the EU internal market. The book will be an important resource and a tool for decision-makers, officials and academics involved in the external relations of the EU and the export of the internal market acquis. Dr. KarolienPieters is a senior research fellow in EU law and a member of the Centre for the Law of EU External Relations (CLEER) at the T.M.C. Asser Instituut in The Hague.

Book excerpt: Originally published in 1999, Bridges and Barriers is a detailed study of the European Union’s Mediterranean Policy from the initial agreements in the 1960s to the recent Euro-Mediterranean Partnership . The scope of this analysis includes the Maghreb and Mashreq countries in addition to Turkey, Malta, Israel, the Occupied Territories and Cyprus. The authors argue that the limited success of trade and development policy in this region resulted from endogenous and exogenous factors: examples of the former include the lack of the political will necessary to implement trade, aid and reform policies, while the latter include the energy crisis of the 1970s, the Arab-Israeli conflict and the Cold War.
