Abstract: 

When the Eastern Partnership (EaP) was launched in 2009, the core motivation was to supplement the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) with an improved eastern dimension. The EaP was conceived to offer more incentives and rewards, thereby shifting the manner of cooperation to more partnership and away from asymmetry. This article analyses the intentions and effects of the EaP in the case of EU-Georgia relations by investigating two modes of cooperation (external governance and partnership cooperation), which should theoretically enhance EU-Georgia relations. The article’s results reveal that a more fine-tuned partnership concept best suits an analysis of Georgia’s participation within the EaP, depending on the policy field of cooperation.
