“…Given the broad EU external relations with other regional organizations in the Global South, deciphering the narratives and dynamics of this particular inter-regional relationship might provide useful tools for understanding the EU's inter-regional relations with other parts of the globe, in particular in Latin America and south-east Asia, where regional organizations have also taken the EU as a role model in many respects (Allison-Reumann, 2017;Dri, 2010;Jetschke and Murray, 2012;Lenz and Burilkov, 2017). Nonetheless, more studies that are focused on empirically providing the standpoints of non-EU actors are crucial for highlighting the challenges and limitations of the diffusion of EU norms worldwide.…”

This article assesses EU–Africa inter‐regionalism and the reception of EU norms by African actors, by investigating the relations between the European Parliament (EP) and the Pan‐African Parliament (PAP). By exploring this interparliamentary dialogue, the article draws attention to the contradictions of African perceptions on European integration, which is simultaneously seen as an inspiration and a neo‐imperialist project. The EP was considered a role model to the PAP and was also one of its main supporters. However, European involvement in African issues has not always been regarded as positive. Post‐colonial and pan‐African discourses found in African statements have reinforced their resistance to European engagement in African politics. After discussing these ambivalent narratives on the EU, this article addresses the way that these perceptions impact on AU–EU inter‐regional relations, arguing that these mixed views towards the Europeans have undermined the diffusion of EU norms and the levels of trust in this relationship, preventing the joint Africa–Europe strategy from attaining its ambitions.

“…Although it needs to be recognized as a global human rights promoter, it has influence to support ASEAN in promoting human rights in the region. 61 In addition to differences, there are also similarities between the ASEAN Declaration of Human Rights and The Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. The equation is the absence of a form of restriction by the state.…”

The flow of information technology development cannot be contained. Migration from the era of citizens to netizens is an impossible thing to avoid. This study aims to examine the relationship between the development of information technology in the digital era, especially on social media, and the Human Rights perspective. This research uses normative legal research methods to find ideal formulations and boundaries for netizens to become polite people interacting on social media. The results of this study show that Indonesian's right to an opinion on social media is a constitutional right that has been regulated in the 1945 NRI Constitution and the UDHR. However, freedom of speech does not mean that there are no limits. The limitations of freedom of speech on social media are through the limitations of norms, especially norms of politeness and decency, whose values are universal.

The stigmatisation of Central Europe via (failed) socialisation narrative

2021

This article builds on the criticism of the international socialisation narrative which mistakenly represents compliance as socialisation and recognises agency only to the extent it fails to comply. It pertains to the argument that such a narrative can lead to stigmatisation which reinforces social orders characterised by specific hierarchies of power and spatial relations. The example of EU member states from Central Europe (CE) that went from 'star pupils of norm adoption' to 'misbehaving children of Europe' serves as a case study. The research of literature treating CE countries as socialisees and international organisations (OSCE, NATO and EU) as socialisers shows two things. Firstly, it demonstrates that CE countries internalised norms even before they complied with norm-based rules, which challenges views that (under) socialisation was (is) an issue with these states. Secondly, it shows that non-compliance of the CE countries did not have much to do with non-acceptance of norms as such. It was rather related to hypersensitivity towards specific norms and rules in a context of multiple crises with asymmetric effects for the CE countries. In this process, the EU and CE used (non)compliance to reinforce their identities, thus creating stigma (the EU) and the attempt to resist it or even wear it as the source of pride (CE).
