International Relations

A discussion on how electoral outcomes in both countries could shape the bilateral relations and foreign policies.

Featuring the book and facilitating exchanges on an alternative framework, Columbia Global Centers | Beijing, in partnership with Princeton University Press and the School of International Studies at Peking University, invited Keren Yarhi-Milo, the dean of Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA) and Public Affairs and the Adlai E.

This talk examined what kind of role the EU is playing in the current turbulent MENA/Mediterranean scene and what is left of the EU’s influence in what appears to be a time of flux and crisis, both internally and externally, for this complex, hybrid and increasingly unconfident international actor. Answers to these question need to be put in historical perspective, starting from the ‘good old days’ when the EU seemed to have a distinct political vision for its southern outer periphery, and behaved as a major international actor there in terms of presence, opportunity and capability.
