Abstract
What explains European Union international contestation of justice and values in the emerging global order?
To answer this question the research provides a systematic, unified, practice-oriented analysis of EU contestation through three overarching objectives:
(1) it analyses the EU’s promotion and contestation of global justice and a value-based global order through the use of a unified research design built on a database across four fields of bilateral, minilateral, multilateral, and transnational global engagement;
(2) it draws together systematic data from both EU and non-EU governmental, non-governmental, and transnational actors in order to ascertain the influence of facilitating and restraining conditions, as well as institutional and legal factors, in shaping the EU’s contribution to global justice and a value-based global order;
(3) it identifies and develops best practices of EU promotion of values and global justice, and through draft evidence-based policy-recommendations engaging in proactive communication and dissemination activities.
The research consists of research teams taken from the world’s top four “EU as global actor” centres, whose scientists have excellent expertise on the EU as a global actor, non-European global actors, issue-specific fields, and methods, delivering conceptual and theoretical innovation, knowledge-transfer, and evidence-based, practical recommendations.
