Synopsis

The EU includes human rights conditionality clauses in its international trade and cooperation agreements, the purpose of which is to entitle either party to take appropriate measures if the other fails to comply with human rights or democratic principles. This book analyses the construction of these clauses, their operation, and questions the extent to which the EU has the legislative power to include such clauses in its agreements.
