"The approaches of EU institutions and the US to democracy assistance often vary quite
significantly as both actors choose different means and tactics. The nuances in the
understandings of democracy on the part of the EU and the US lead to their promotion
of models of democratic governance that are often quite divergent and, in some respects,
clashing. This book examines the sources of this divergence and by focusing on the
role of the actors' "democratic identity" it aims to explain the observation that
both actors use divergent strategies and instruments to foster democratic governance
in third countries. Taking a constructivist view, it demonstrates that the history,
expectations and experiences with democracy of each actor significantly inform their
respective definition of democracy and thus the model of democracy they promote abroad.
This book will be of key interest to scholars, students and practitioners in democracy
promotion, democratization, political theory, EU and US foreign policy and assistance,
and identity research"
