Abstract

The present study is an attempt to evaluate the impact of what the European Union considers as its new Mediterranean policy on the Mediterranean region in general, and on Tunisia in particular. It will review the evaluation of Euro-Mediterranean relations up to the 1995 Barcelona Conference, the main areas of cooperation identified in the Barcelona Declaration and the Tunisia-E.U. Agreement. By using three different, but complementary, methods the study will conclude that in the absence of any real threats to EU interests in the Mediterranean, that could justify its present conservative policy, it can afford to adopt a more innovative approach that would enhance its rare short-term, and the more numerous long-term interests in the region.
