"This book analyzes the impact and effectiveness of EU foreign policy in promoting peace in five conflicts in the European southern and eastern neighbourhoods. Through the study of five ethno-political conflicts lying on or just beyond Europe's borders, this book analyzes the impact and effectiveness of EU contractual relations on conflict resolution." "The EU and Conflict Resolution will be of interest to all readers who wish to acquire an excellent understanding of the EU's impact on conflict contexts and will appeal to scholars of European politics, security studies and conflict resolution."--BOOK JACKET.
