Summary

Demokratieförderung ist zentraler Bestandteil der Politik der EU gegenüber dem Südkaukasus und Zentrala-sien. Das deutsch-georgisch-usbekische Autorengespann gibt in diesem Buch Antwort auf die folgenden vier Fragen: Mit welchen Instrumenten und auf welche Art fördert die EU die Demokratie in den Staaten des Südkaukasus und in Zentralasien? Wie kann die gewählte Vorgehensweise bei der Demokratieförderung erklärt werden? Welche Wirkung hat die Demokratieförderung der EU? Wie kann diese Wirkung erklärt werden? Zur Beantwortung der Fragen werden, anders als in bisher vorliegenden Studien, sämtliche Aktivitäten der EU im Bereich der Demokratieförderung einbezogen. Die Analyse basiert zudem auf einer Vielzahl von Interviews und Daten, die von dem Autorengespann in Brüssel, wie auch im Südkaukasus und Zentralasien durchgeführt bzw. erhoben wurden.
