The 'Everything But Arms' (EBA) regulation of the European Union
(EU) has been hailed as a groundbreaking initiative for developing
countries. Since 2001 EBA grants almost completely liberalized
access to the European market for products from the least-developed
countries (LDCs). It quickly became the most symbolic European
trade initiative towards the Third World since the first Lome
Convention in the 1970s.
Given its central position in EU discourse and its continuing
relevance for the European and international trade agenda, this
book attempts to present a thorough analysis of EBA. 'European
Union Trade Politics and Development' contains contributions from a
diverse range of scholars who collectively present a comprehensive
picture of EBA. This volume also contains a broader analysis of EU
trade politics towards the South, focusing on agricultural policy
reform, Europe's evolving relationship with ACP countries
(ex-colonies from Africa, the Caribbean and the Pacific), it links
EBA with Europe's negotiating position within the World Trade
Organization. Contributions to this volume also consider the
continuing negotiation leverage of EBA within the Doha Development
Agenda, make comparisons with United States trade policy vis-a-vis
the LDCs, and focus on the economic effectiveness of EBA in terms
of its stated objectives as well as on the institutional
skirmishing within the EU.
