The seven articles in this anthology analyze the influence of the European Union on policy change in the enlargement and neighborhood policy states in Southeast Europe, Turkey, Eastern Europe, the South Caucasus, and the Southern Mediterranean. They develop short-, medium- and long-term policy recommendations on how the European Union can improve its support for reform processes in political, social, and economic issues. They deal with policy fields such as democracy promotion, environmental policy, visa facilitation agreements, regulatory convergence to the internal market, protection of minorities, decentralization for conflict resolution, and the role of civil society in these reform processes. The work is part of the series Europäische Schriften (Volume 93) and was financially supported by the Kolleg-Forschergruppe (KFG) "The Transformative Power of Europe". The KFG, based at the Free University of Berlin, is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG).
