Introduction : the study of European Union relations with Mercosur -- Analytical framework : relations between the European Union and Mercosur -- European Union policy-making towards Mercosur -- Non-institutionalized relations between the EU and Mercosur -- The most productive years of EU-Mercosur relations -- The first attempt to negotiate the association agreement -- The second attempt to negotiate the association agreement -- Lessons to be learned from the EU policy towards Mercosur.
This book provides a distinctive and empirically rich account of the European Union's relationship with the Common Market of the South (Mercosur). It seeks to examine the motivations that determine the EU's policy towards Mercosur; the most important relationship the EU has with another regional economic integration organization. Drawing on extensive primary documents, the book argues that the major developments in the relationship were initiated by Mercosur and supported mainly by Spain. Rather than the EU pursuing a strategy, as implied by most of the existing literature, the EU was largely responsive, which explains why the relationship is much less developed than the EU's relations with other parts of the world.
