欧洲联盟（欧盟）已成为一个主要的全球行动者，但它面临着一个不断的斗争，以保持其在国际关系中的地位的强大，一致的形象。对于那些认识到其影响力的人来说，欧盟是一个主要的规范和民事力量，在人道主义援助，环境可持续性，多边主义，人权和发展等领域发挥着重要作用。原因多种多样：从欧洲人对自身努力的自我批评，到媒体夸大成员国之间的争议，再到偶尔发生的内部关于进一步一体化道路的争吵。尽管欧洲地区面临困境和众多危机，但它比世界上其他地区要成功得多，这些地区也在努力实现集体凝聚力，从而实现地区软实力。
The European Union (EU) has become a major global actor, but it faces a constant struggle to maintain a strong, coherent image of its place in international relations. For those who recognize its influence, the EU is a major normative and civilian power, playing a significant role in the areas of humanitarian aid, environmental sustainability, multilateralism, human rights, and development, among other things.1 However, more often than not, the EU is seen in very pessimistic terms. There are a variety of reasons for this: from Europeans’ self-criticism of their own efforts to the media’s exaggeration of controversy among member states to occasional internal bickering about the path to further integration. Despite its struggles and numerous crises, the European region has been far more successful than other regions in the world that are also striving to achieve a sense of collective coherence, and in turn, regional soft power.
