This thesis analyzes the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) towards Lebanon. The thesis looks into early European initiatives to demonstrate growing EU ambitions towards the Mediterranean region. Lebanon is examined with its specificities in historic context and EU’s sending troops to UNIFIL army after the July 2006 war. As the 2004 enlargement brought the EU closer to Lebanon, and as the EU tends to play a growing international role, particularly in the Mediterranean region, the EU saw the Israeli attack on Lebanon as an opportunity to increase its engagement in Lebanon, thereby increasing its influence in the region. The thesis argues that the ENP is the newest foreign policy tool both to answer the concerns of EU in the Mediterranean region and to raise the EU’s profile in the region.

The European Union as a normative power and the European neighbourhood policy: cases of Morocco and Egypt
Tınas, Murat; Çıtak Aytürk, Zana Ayşe; Department of International Relations (2009)
This thesis aims to examine the European Union (EU) as a normative power in the context of the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) through case studies of Morocco and Egypt. The uniqueness of the EU as a distinct actor in international politics has led many observers to claim that the EU is a normative power. The ENP, which emerged in 2004, has been one of the main instruments of the EU within this framework. This thesis studies the claim as to whether the EU is, in fact, a normative power in the context of...

It is conten...
The impact of the european union upon european identity
Görgün, Tuğrul; Yurdusev, Ahmet Nuri; Department of International Relations (2004)
This study examines the making of the European identity concept under the impact of the European Union (EU) project.

Besides, the Eurobarometers (EBs) have been used to analyse the condition of European identity perception among the people of the member countries. The results of the EBs data show that the popularisation of the European identity is limited and the elite character of this ident...

The essence of EU strategy in South East Europe : The Republic of Macedonia
Atay, Niyazi Güneş; Bağcı, Hüseyin; Department of International Relations (2004)
This thesis examines the South East European policy of the European Union, which promoted the prospect of a ءUnited Europe̕. After the end of the bipolar world system, the ultimate aim of the East European countries has been the integration into the European Union. The transition and integration process, that they initiated in accordance with this aim, made up the basis of their relations with the Union. Nevertheless, the South East European countries, which became a sub-region within East Europe, joined to...
