It is increasingly recognised that EU development cooperation
policy has failed to meet its stated aims. In this book, available
for the first time in paperback, Arts and Dickson ask the obvious
and important question: if the policy doesn't work, why bother with
it? The authors assess why EU development policy has become largely
ineffective, citing among the external causal factors the
liberalisation of trade, and the growing influence of US and
international actors such as the World Bank and the International
Monetary Fund upon EU policy. It also considers contributing
factors within the EU such as the enlargement of its membership and
the resulting shifts in priorities. It is this analysis of internal
and external factors affecting the decline of EU development policy
that makes this study both innovative and unique. It brings
together an impressive range of contributors from different
disciplines resulting in a thorough and intelligent assessment of
the debate. This study will appeal to advanced level undergraduates
and academics of European politics in general, EU integration,
development studies, and International Relations. -- .
