Summary/Abstract |
In order to adapt to a changing global order, the European Union (EU) has established an important mechanism for cooperating with some of the world’s most influential countries—strategic partnerships (Renard 2012). Four of these partners are Asian—China, India, Japan and South Korea. As a mechanism for understanding the importance of the EU’s strategic partnership agreements in Asia as well as the EU’s potential influence in these countries, this paper examines and compares how the EU’s four strategic partners in Asia view the Union. It identifies similarities and differences in their perceptions of, and attitudes towards, the EU. The paper draws on a methodologically robust data analysis examining three fields of interest in these four countries over 10 years: (1) the filters through which the EU is reported on and understood by the news media in the respective countries; (2) how the EU is perceived by the general public; (3) how the EU is perceived and understood by the national elites in its four strategic partners in Asia. The article demonstrates some similarities and differences across the four strategic partnerships. Firstly, and positively for the EU, the EU’s strategic partnerships in the four Asian countries are viewed as being more than just about a trading relationship for the countries involved. Secondly, these partnerships have been regarded as comprehensive. Thirdly, there was also a noticeable image of an increasingly inwardly occupied EU from 2006 to 2015, hence potentially diminishing the perceived global actorness of the Union. Fourthly, the studied Asian countries considered the EU one of their important partners but ranked it behind the USA and their neighbouring countries. Finally, positive impressions of the EU were also found to have weakened considerably in the past decade.

Summary/Abstract |
This analysis tackles a previously understudied topic—the ebb and flow of ideas towards the European Union (EU) as a ‘Normative Power’ found in an external society. It asks three questions. How can particular visions about a foreign policy actor—the EU in our case—be activated and disseminated in societies beyond the Union’s borders? Who are the key local actors who facilitate the spreading of these ideas? And how might the personal views towards the EU and its ‘Normative Power (NPE)’ identity of these key actors influence the activation of ‘NPE’ ideas in a given society? In answering these questions, this analysis brings together two theoretical models previously not linked—the NPE analytical approach (Manners, J Common Mark Stud 40(2):235–258, 2002) and the ‘cascading activation’ framing theory (Entman, Polit Commun 20(4):415–432, 2003, 2004). Empirically, this paper employs data from 74 face-to-face semi-structured interviews on the perceptions of the EU as a normative power. Interviews were held among the leading newsmakers from influential national media—news writers (journalists, columnists, reporters) and media gatekeepers (editors, news directors, publishers and news producers) from seven Asian countries.
