This book explains why the EU is not a 'normative actor' in the
Southern Mediterranean, and how and why EU democracy promotion
fails. Drawing on a combination of discourse analysis of EU policy
documents and evidence from opinion polls showing 'what the people
want', the book shows EU policy fails because the EU promotes a
conception of democracy which people do not share. Likewise, the
EU's strategies for economic development are misconceived because
they do not reflect the people's preferences for greater social
justice and reducing inequalities. This double failure highlights a
paradox of EU democracy promotion: while nominally emancipatory, it
de facto undermines the very transitions to democracy and inclusive
development it aims to pursue.
