European Union Development Policy Europe and the Developing Countries Conference (1996 : London, England) and Lister, Marjorie

This book is an authoritative and wide-ranging analysis of current issues and dilemmas in the European Union's relations with the developing world. It brings together politicians, academics and policy makers to address recent experience and the way ahead after the EU's leading policy, the Lomé Convention, expires in February 2000. Development policy in the various member states and at the EU level and the prospects for furthering the international community's human rights and good governance agenda are examined in detail. The volume provides a thorough assessment of one of the EU's oldest, most important, and yet little known, policy fields.
