Relações externas da União Europeia com o Magrebe : aplicação de um modelo gravitacional

Abstract

A possibilidade de adesão dos países de Leste à União Europeia constitui o quadro para a redefinição da política comunitária face aos países terceiros mediterrânicos e irá seguramente moldar a face das futuras relações entre as duas margens do Mediterrâneo. Apesar do Processo de Barcelona actualmente em curso, os países do Magrebe encaram com alguma apreensão o futuro das suas relações com a União Europeia, já que, com o aprofundamento da integração a Leste, a União parece fragilizar a sua presença a Sul. O objectivo central do presente trabalho é analisar o desenvolvimento das relações externas do Magrebe com a União Europeia nas suas múltiplas vertentes - cooperação, comércio, investimento e parceria. A evolução da política mediterrânica da UE é analisada desde os primeiros acordos nos anos sessenta até aos desafios trazidos pela futura Zona de Comércio Livre, assim como o seu impacto potencial nas economias mediterrânicas. Os fluxos de comércio são examinados, em direcção e composição. Os principais factores determinantes do Investimento Directo Estrangeiro são identificados, assim como algumas das razões para a fraca atractibilidade do Magrebe. E apresentada a aplicação prática de um modelo gravitacional ao comércio entre a União Europeia e o Magrebe, onde é tido em consideração o impacto dos acordos de associação com os países da Europa Central e Oriental. Mais concretamente, no que se refere a este impacto específico, pretende-se evidenciar a existência, ou não, de criação ou de desvio de comércio nas trocas entre o Magrebe e a União Europeia.

The possibility of eastern countries becoming members of the European Union, is the ground for the redefinition of communitary policy towards third Mediterranean countries and will surely shape future relations between the two banks of the Mediterranean. In spite of the Barcelona Process presently in course, Maghreb countries face with some apprehension the future of their relationship with the European Union, since the deepening of the integration in the East, seems to weaken the Union's presence in the South. The main purpose of the present text is to analyse the development of Maghreb's external relations with the European Union in its multiple forms - cooperation, trade, investment and partnership. An overview of the development of the EU's Mediterranean Policy is given, from the early agreements in the sixties, to the challenges posed by the coming Free Trade Area and its potencial impact on Maghreb's economies. Trade flows are examined on direction and composition. The main determinants of Foreign Direct Investment in Mediterranean region are identified, as well as some of the reasons for Maghreb's poor attractiveness. An application of a gravity model to the exchanges between the Maghreb and the European Union is presented, where the impact of the European Agreements with Central and Eastern European countries is taken into account. Particularly, in what regards the impact of the next enlargement, it is our intention to put in evidence the existence, or not, of trade criation and trade diversion.
