The European Union as a Normative Power?

Más información sobre el libro

Examining the transfer of EU legal culture, this book analyzes the implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in Norway, Serbia, and Ukraine. The author critiques the effectiveness of the Brussels effect in demonstrating the EU's normative power, arguing that existing criteria fall short. By combining compliance theory with a constructivist perspective, she presents a nuanced understanding of how EU norms may be adopted or rendered ineffective in non-EU contexts, proposing a new framework for assessing the global spread of legal norms.
