Laure DELCOUR is an Associate Professor at Sorbonne Nouvelle University and a Visiting Professor at the College of Europe’s EU International Relations and Diplomacy Studies Department. Her work focuses on EU external policies, particularly in Eastern Europe and the South Caucasus, examining interactions between EU and Russian policies, region-building in Eurasia, and civil society participation in policymaking. She coordinates EU and French-funded research projects, including a current ANR-FWF initiative on civil society engagement in EU neighborhood policies.
Her research explores EU norm diffusion, contested neighborhood dynamics, and the interplay between regional integration projects like the Eastern Partnership and Eurasian Economic Union. She has lectured widely at institutions such as Sciences-Po Paris and MGIMO Moscow, emphasizing EU enlargement, neighborhood policies, and Russian foreign policy.
Publications include The EU and Russia in their ‘Contested Neighbourhood’ (2017) and Shaping the Post-Soviet Space? (2011), alongside articles analyzing anti-discrimination norms, resilience in Eastern Partnership policies, and EU-Russia geopolitical competition. Her work bridges international relations theory with empirical studies of EU external action in contested regions.
