Abstract

The article poses the issue of the practice of implementation of democratic reforms, their results and limitations as a part of the EU partnership with the South Caucasus countries. Author underlines that consolidation of democracy has been mentioned as the key goal of the EU- Armenia, EU-Georgia and EU-Azerbaijan cooperation. The subject of research are official agreements between the EU and the South Caucasian states, as well as the EU Commission documents that relate to the development of third countries. The author concludes that the focus of cooperation in democratic reforms has moved from regime transformation to adaptation of European administrative practices, building dialogue with civil society organisations. Despite certain success in selected aspects of the partnership, this has not brought any profound political change.
