The Road to Cotonou: Negotiating a Successor to Lomé

Abstract

The Cotonou Agreement represents a radical overhaul of EUACP relations: it both consolidates the EUACP relationship through political dialogue, and provides for the long‐standing trade preferences to be replaced with regional free trade agreements. This analysis examines the various forces at work in the negotiations, using two‐level game theory to assess how domestic interests influence an international negotiation. This analysis is set against the internal dynamic of EUACP relations, as well as the constraints posed by the multilateral trading system. Finally, the article examines the implications of this analysis for the forthcoming negotiations between the EU and regional ACP groups.
