December 18, 2014, the American University of Armenia (AUA) Political
Science and International Affairs (PSIA) program presented their research
project entitled, `Integration vs. Security: Revisiting Armenia's Decision
to Join the Customs Union.' The research was conducted with the support of
the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs (NUPI).
The team of researchers was headed by Dr. Vahram Ter-Matevosyan, PSIA
visiting Senior Lecturer, and was comprised of two recent graduates of Vahram
Ter-Matevosyan (left) headed the team of researchers
AUA's PSIA program, Anna Drnoian and Narek Lazarian, as well as Tigran
Yepremyan from Yerevan State University.
The study comes in response to the September 3, 2013 decision by the
Armenian government to join the Customs Union and participate in the
process of the formation of the Eurasian Economic Union. The study offers a
number of explanations to that political decision as well as provides some
policy recommendations that could help to address the deficiencies that
exist in Armenia's domestic and foreign policy making practices.
The study was conducted within the framework of the project `Research
Beyond the Ivory Tower: Policy and Communications Training for University
Teams,' sponsored by NUPI with the aim of increasing the capacity of
university professionals in the South Caucasus and Central Asia to
participate in and set the agenda for public debate. Overall, the project
received 65 applications from 8 countries, of which only 10
university-based research teams were selected.
Founded in 1991, the American University of Armenia (AUA) is a private,
independent university located in Yerevan, Armenia and affiliated with the
University of California. AUA provides a global education in Armenia and
the region, offering high-quality, graduate and undergraduate studies,
encouraging civic engagement, and promoting public service and democratic
values.
