The European Union's Normative Power in Planetary Politics

Activity: Talk or presentation typesLecture and oral contribution

Description

The European Union's normative power must be analysed at the nexus of critical social theory and planetary politics. This involves analysing the EU and planetary politics at the intersections of global economy, society, environment, conflict and politics. In global economics the focus is on the promotion of freedom and social solidarity. In global society the focus is on the promotion of human rights and equality. In global environment the focuse is on the promotion of sustainable development and addressing global warming. In global conflict the focuse is on the promotion of sustainable peace and the rule of law. And in global politics the focuse is on the promotion of democracy and good governance.
