Abstract: European values are playing a significant role in shaping the attachment of citizens and elites to the European Union (EU), as well as being central to the orientation of its foreign policy. Yet far from being universally accepted and promoted, the EU’s goals have increasingly been questioned. If many of these contestations have been raised from within the EU, too little attention has been given to how they are perceived in non-European contexts. This conference will shed light on the ways individuals, groups, and elites in American, Asian, African and Middle Eastern countries are perceiving these values and, in return, how these external contestations are understood by European elites.
