This book examines EU
Eastern Partnership taking into account geopolitical challenges of EU
integration. It highlights reasons for limited success, such as systematic
conflict of EU External Action. In addition, the book analyses country-specific
issues and discusses EaP influence on them, investigating political, economic
and social factors, while seeking for potential solutions to existing problems.
The reluctance of the Eastern countries to the European reforms should not
reduce political pro-activeness of the EU. The authors suggest that EaP
strategies should be reviewed to be more reciprocal and not based solely on the
EU-laden agenda. This book is one of the good examples of cooperation between
scholars not only from EaP and EU countries, but also from different
disciplines, bringing diversity to the discussion process.
