The Jean Monnet lecture series seeks to contribute to bridging the gap between the academic world (often described as an ivory tower), on the one hand, and the EU institutions, national governments, civil society (NGOs), interest groups, journalism, etc., on the other hand. The main aim is to shed new light on the challenges and practical constraints of EU\u2019s external action. This concerns several dimensions: the policy-making process, the interaction patterns of different actors, the content of certain policies and the institutional structure of EU external\/foreign policy.<\/p>\n\n
