The European Integration Process in Times of Covid-19 Pandemic
The article analyzes the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the European integration process, particularly focusing on its economic component. The pandemic effects were particularly severe in the Tourism and Hospitality and Aviation sectors, most affected by measures to combat the SARS-CoV-2 virus, such as confinement and border closures. Some of the main consequences caused by the COVID-19 pandemic crisis on European countries are explained acco…
Challenges to the nation-state in the context of European integration
Neoliberalism has had a profound impact on the relations between the state and citizens, namely in the enjoyment of their rights. In the context of European integration, citizenship is conceptualised and practiced as a multi-level attribute, posing both challenges and opportunities, for its fulfilment. The article engages with this multilevel and multifaceted nature of citizenship in the European Union, reflecting the contested role of the nation…
Bringing “the political” back into European security
The Eastern Partnership is one of the tools of the European Union (EU) contributing to the reordering of European security. This article addresses the formative processes of the current European security order, focusing on the forms of capital being mobilised by the EU and Russia in the field of European security. Using post-structuralist perspectives in international politics, it argues that the EU's promotion of depoliticised forms of politics …
The Ukrainian conflict in Russian foreign policy
This article analyses Russia’s role in the Ukrainian crisis in the context of Moscow’s foreign policy historical development, underlining patterns of continuity and change in its policies towards the CIS. It argues that Russian foreign policy towards Ukraine results from a combination of two trends, reinforcing a Russian interventionist agenda: perceived threats to Russia’s interests in the near abroad and a radicalised and conservative national …
The EU's Conflict Resolution Policies in the Black Sea Area
Since the end of the Cold War, the Black Sea countries have undergone significant changes in their domestic, regional and global contexts. These shifts entailed important consequences for the political and economic re-structuring of the region, with an increasingly important role played by the European Union (EU) and NATO in anchoring these countries to Euro-Atlantic institutions. However, conflict resolution has remained one area where EU countr…
The Modernisation Agenda in Russian Foreign Policy
This article looks at the concept of modernisation in Russian foreign policy and how modernisation issues have been included in Russian foreign policy discourse and practice. The article focuses on the importance attributed in Russian foreign policy to the modernisation agenda in relations with strategic partners, such as the USA and China, so as to position the European Union (EU)–Russia partnership in this broader framework. By looking at the s…
Introdução
Este número temático tem como principal objetivo identificar novas tendências e abordagens ao estudo do espaço pós-soviético, nomeadamente entre os investigadores nacionais. Na tradição dos estudos de área, o trabalho académico dedicado aos países resultantes do colapso da União Soviética, em 1991, congrega uma grande diversidade de olhares e abordagens, dependendo das áreas científicas privilegiadas. Numa lógica de abertura e diálogo interdiscip…
(In)security in Post-Soviet Eurasia
Since the 1990s, (in)security in post-Soviet Eurasia has been conceptualized by International Relations scholars as being mainly connected to the permanence of regional violent conflicts and the challenges of fragile sovereignty. After 9/11, terrorism as a broad category has also been added to the lexicon. These views place state security at the centre of analysis, and focus mainly on military aspects of security. This article addresses the limit…

From words to deeds
This article analyses the European Union (EU)'s engagement in Armenia through policy frameworks (mainly the Neighbourhood Policy and the Eastern Partnership) and practices, focusing on the correspondence between words and actions in democracy promotion. The article argues that the EU's role in democracy promotion in Armenia has provided grounds for fundamental improvements, but has also been facing several constraints, which result both from the …
Region-building in the eastern neighbourhood
The promotion of regional cooperation has been a central feature of the European Union (EU)'s external relations. Forms of sub-regional cooperation are deemed to be essential confidence-building measures, as a means of consolidating a shared community of values, practices and interests. This article looks at region-building processes in the EU's relations with the South Caucasus, as the interface between the existing approaches and the ensuing pr…
Do leaders still decide? The role of leadership in Russian foreign policymaking
A União Europeia entre o alargamento e a vizinhança
O artigo trata as políticas da UE para a sua periferia a leste, com enfoque nos Balcãs ocidentais e no Cáucaso do sul. Partindo de uma abordagem comparativa, o artigo argumenta que a construção de uma ordem regional normativa, com objetivos claros de estabilização por meio da integração de geometria variável, tem encontrado limites. O artigo identifica essas dinâmicas e procura retirar lições da abordagem europeia aos Balcãs e ao Cáucaso
The problematic role of EU democracy promotion in Armenia, Azerbaijan and Nagorno-Karabakh
This article looks at the interdependences between the democratisation processes in Armenia, Azerbaijan and Nagorno-Karabakh and the management of the Karabakh conflict, focussing on the EU’s democracy promotion policies. The article argues that the EU’s normative foreign policy in the South Caucasus has been limited by the permanence of the protracted conflicts, in two interrelated ways. First, by not addressing the conflicts the EU focused on l…
Portuguese and Spanish Relations with Moscow
Both Portugal and Spain are commonly perceived as secondary actors regarding the shaping of the EU's eastern policies, due to several factors, including geographical distance and both countries' colonial past. This article enquires about this common perception, arguing that although there has been some division of labour among EU member states regarding Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) areas, namely through the exercise of EU presidencie…
Boa governação e estabilidade na vizinhança da UE
A Política Europeia de Vizinhança, criada pela União Europeia para gerir as suas relações com os vizinhos da “Europa alargada”, tem enfrentado desafios importantes na sua aplicação ao Cáucaso do Sul, incluindo a Arménia, o Azerbaijão e a Geórgia. O artigo identifica as principais dinâmicas subjacentes a esta política e argumenta que a expansão de uma comunidade de segurança que englobe a UE e os Estados do Cáucaso tem encontrado obstáculos ao nív…
