Resumen de EU External Action and the Reproduction of the ‘Rationality Myth’: The EU Energy and Aviation Policies vis à vis its Neighbours in the Western Balkans and the Southern Mediterranean
In the light of the discussion on the EU’s tendency to reproduce itself in its external action, the article argues that the EU’s international life is permeated by a ‘western style rationality’ culture, and that what is reproduced through its external action is its own ‘rationality myth’. In order to substantiate this argument, I undertake a cross-sectoral and cross-regional approach. The two policy sectors under examination are energy and aviation, while the geographical scope of the study covers two regions: the Western Balkans and the Southern Mediterranean.
