EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL LIBERALIZATION THAT ENP PROMOTES AS TRANSMISSION BELTS OF DEMOCRATIZATION AND POLITICAL STABILITY: SUCCESS AND FAILURE REVISITED THE SOUTHERN DIMENSION

Abstract
e European Neighborhood Policy (ENP) was launched in 2004 with the aim of building new political and economic relations between the EU and its Southern and Eastern neighboring states through support for introduction of reforms and systemic changes in the partner states. In the South, the initiative covered ten countries: Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Palestine, Syria and Tunisia. It was associated with better political and economic relations with the EU, which should result in a wider access to the European market for Mediterranean goods and a larger foreign direct investment in$ow to the partner countries’ markets. The aim of the paper is to analyze the eects of ENP on the Southern Mediterranean neighbors in the context of economic liberalization and pro-democratic changes. e paper analyses two problems: economic development and trade liberalization oered by ENP through deeper integration with the EU and marketoriented regulations. e second problem analyzed in the paper concerns the process of democratic changes that the EU committed to promote. Due to the highly controversial nature of democratization for the Mediterranean states, it was replaced by the idea of good governance. For this purpose, general trends within the Mediterranean societies in their approach to that notion of governance are presented.
