The European Union's Economic Partnership Agreements (EPAs) with countries in the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) group are touted as a new form of equitable engagement. However, many argue that the EPAs simply substitute a different form of political and economic domination. In this paper, we consider if the siting of meetings has a substantive impact on EPA outcomes or media reporting thereof. Using a difference-in-difference like approach we evaluate if the tone and polarity of media reports about the EPAs during periods of ‘home’ meetings in the ACP countries differs from media reports during ‘away’ meetings in the EU. Using two different datasets we arrive at differing results, leading to inconclusive overall findings. While we suspect that the alternating meeting site norm has implications for EPA process and outcomes, further research will be needed to uncover the precise nature of these effects.

主场优势?欧盟-非加太经济伙伴协议会议地点和文本语气

欧盟与非洲、加勒比和太平洋 (ACP) 国家的经济伙伴关系协定 (EPA) 被吹捧为一种新的公平参与形式。然而,许多人认为,EPAs 只是替代了一种不同形式的政治和经济统治。在本文中,我们考虑如果选址的会议对 EPA 结果或媒体报道有实质性影响。使用差异中的差异类似方法,我们评估在 ACP 国家“家庭”会议期间有关 EPA 的媒体报道的基调和极性是否与欧盟“离开”会议期间的媒体报道不同。使用两个不同的数据集,我们得出了不同的结果,导致总体结果不确定。虽然我们怀疑交替会议地点规范对 EPA 过程和结果有影响,但需要进一步的研究来揭示这些影响的确切性质。
