La exportación del habitus social y democrático como garantía tácita en la búsqueda de la autonomía estratégica abierta en la Unión Europea: el caso de la Global Gateway en África

Abstract

In an international system that is tending towards greater anarchy and polarity, the EU is committed to inclusive cooperation formulas that ensure and correctly export the European political and social system, which is characterised by the safeguarding of basic freedoms and normative principles. While these aspects are being defended in the European Union itself thanks to the implementation of ambitious policies such as the European Social Pillar, Brussels is conscientiously committed to ensuring an independent voice in the international system. In this sense, the defence of foreign policy paradigms such as strategic autonomy is a clear example of this principle, and the recently implemented Global Gateway cooperation tool is a practical example.
