Violation of Human Rights on the West Bank and Its Reflection in the European Union

This thesis deals with foreign policy of European Union towards Israel considering the violation of human rights on the West Bank territory. Israel, while occupying this territory, violates some parts of international humanitarian law, namely Geneva Conventions. Eventhough European Union declares respect for human rights and claim to be its distributor, EU cooperate with Israel on many different levels. This thesis works with concept Normative power by Ian Manners and Legitimizing power by Anders Persson to analyze how European Union deals with Israeli violation of human rights and how did it project it into their relation between 2005 and 2015
