- W1573443343 abstract "This study problematises two theoretical propositions that have prevailed in themainstream International Relations (IR) literature: the first concerns the negativeunderstanding of the role of entities in the margins; and the second is the attention paidto material resources and physical capabilities in comparison to the politics of norms oridentities. Building on insights from Constructivism, this thesis advances the idea of‘norm competition’, which international norms compete with each other to gaininitiative, and it explores this with reference to nuclear norm entrepreneurship in theWestern Alliance in the early Cold War. In so doing, the study traces the historical pathstowards the creation of EURATOM between 1955 and 1957 at two levels. First, theexternal relations of EURATOM are examined in the framework of norm competition;that is, between the emerging norms of EURATOM, and existing norms in the form ofUS nuclear regulations developed after the end of World War II. I argue that favourabletemporal and spatial conditions, as well as an ‘agree-and-deepen policy’, acommunication skill carefully designed to increase one’s political leverage byexploiting one’s own identification, helped the creation of EURATOM and theemergence of alternative norms in the nuclear field. Second, the inner-dynamics ofEURATOM with regard to its member states, specifically Belgium and France, isexplored in terms of their motivation for joining EURATOM and its influence on themwith respect to their post-war foreign policy identity—namely, the ‘hyphen role’ ofBelgium and the ‘exceptionalism’ of France. It is argued that EURATOM played a keyrole in creating room for its own autonomy and its member states in relation to nuclearnorms. In turn, Belgium and France contributed to the creation of EURATOM byexploiting their unique identities. Finally, it concludes that norm entrepreneurship canincrease the political leverage of margins in relation to centres, and therefore beingmarginal does not necessarily mean being powerless." @default.
