The European Union and International Relations

The European Union and International Relations
SEMINAR
José Manuel Durão Barroso
[email protected]
This seminar will explore the intricacies, challenges, and achievements of the
European Union (EU) in international relations, centered on the perspective of the
President of the European Commission from 2004-2014. Discussions will thus also
concern relations between the EU and non-member states and organizations, the
theory and practice of a supra-national organization, and leadership relations,
conceptually and through experience.
The EU and has achieved substantial integration within its expanding territory and
plays a major role in the international system through its relations with other world
powers, states, organizations and non-state actors. Challenges have emanated from
the disintegration of the dual-bloc system, competing power interests, the variations of
G2/8/20 and the establishment of loose groups like the BRICS states which offer new
economic opportunities and trials.
The EU has to confront ethnic rivalries, terrorism, financial crises, and changing energy
parameters, as well as violence and conflict on its periphery, revolutions, nuclear
crises, and environmental and health challenges. These are compounded by particular
leadership ambitions, the ever more intrusive role of media and powerful global social
networks, intensifying religious-ideological radicalization and economic-strategic
turbulences. Within the framework of intensified global integration and interaction,
these events and themes have given rise to new challenges regarding the original
objectives of the European Union and its politics.
What lessons can we draw from the history of European integration? What future role
will an unprecedented supranational structure like the EU play in global affairs? How
has the EU reacted to global crises and how will new challenges in the 21st century
shape the future of European integration and its political, economic, and social
influence? We will try to outline the future of the EU’s role in the emerging international
system to try to develop suggestions for an effective contribution to stability, justice and
prosperity.
