Contents

This book originated in doctoral research carried out at the University of Glasgow between 1995 and 1999. My work there was supported by an ESRC Scholarship (R00429534376). My thanks must first of all go to the 102 officials, politicians and academics who gave up their valuable time to meet me during the course of my research. Their assistance was absolutely critical to understanding the diplomacy behind the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership. Though several agreed to speak on the record, all their identities are protected in the book. For the most part, references to interviews give only dates and locations.

The Department of Politics at the University of Glasgow gave me a great deal of academic and financial support. Special thanks must be reserved for my supervisor, John Peterson, whose patience and encouragement were invaluable. Stephen White and Chris Berry offered generous support from the Department at all times. Glasgow may not be the Mediterranean, but I spent a hugely enjoyable period there.

The period I spent as a stagiaire at the European Parliament opened my eyes to a fascinating institution. The civil servant to whom I was assigned in DGIV Frank Schuermans must be thanked for the patience he showed as I came to terms with the finer points of macro-economics. Thanks also to Margaret Franois, who accepted my French with good grace. To the many stagiaires, especially Elpida Papahatzi and Nerea San Juan Rodriguez, who assisted me as I found my feet in Brussels and provided me with such a stimulating work environment, I am extremely grateful.

I owe an additional debt of gratitude to colleagues and other academics who provided me with advice and guidance in preparing the book. William Wallace and Helene Sjursen offered very useful comments on draft chapters. Esther Barb, Stephen Calleya, Stelios Stavridis and Bichara Khader all offered their wisdom about the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership. George Christou, Pat Mackinnon, Rebecca Steffenson, Andrew Smith and Des Compston also provided helpful input. Elisa Rollers kind assistance was far beyond the call of duty. Vicki Craven put in an enormous amount of work to help prepare the final manuscript and was always there for me.

Finally, my family were incredibly supportive during my protracted life in full-time education. It is to them that this book is dedicated. My grandparents and late Aunty and Uncle provided unwavering financial and moral support. My parents continued to back me throughout my education, a huge sacrifice for which I cannot thank them enough.
