Description:	Development policy is one of the European Union’s fi rst policies. From its inception in the 1950s in the Treaty of Rome to more recent agreements like the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership of 1995 and the Cotonou Agreement of 2000, development policy has taken a variety of formats. The Lomé I Convention of 1975 is often regarded as a step-change in the EU’s relations with the Third World, designed to move away from the post-colonial links of earlier agreements and towards a more equal kind of partnership (Lister 1997). Nevertheless, the difference in the respective wealth and power, the EU’s ability to control the fi nancial resources, and the structure of its development policy – for instance, including sub-Saharan Africa, the Caribbean and Pacifi c countries but not south Asia in the four successive Lomé Conventions – gave rise to questions of favouritism.
