ACP. African, Caribbean and Pacific Group. In 1975, only 46 ACP countries participated in the Convention. The number of participating countries went up to 57 in 1979, then 66 in 1984, and finally 70 in 1990. Many ACP countries are micro-states. As of the Lomé agreements (1975, 1979, 1984, 1989), relationships between the EEC2 and ACP countries received even greater focus. The Cotonou (Benin) Agreement, signed in 2000 between the EU and 77 ACP countries, marked a profound change in the relationship between partners. The change in philosophy was radical. Cotonou imposed the gradual implementation of a free-trade-based commercial framework, requiring relationships to be based on a new form of governance that also affected aid modalities. In this new philosophy, governance is central. The EU defends the establishment of a new governance in the EU / ACP3 relationship, no longer characterized by the relationship between former colonial peoples / colonized peoples, or donor / beneficiaries, State to State, but by equality among parties, common interests, and integration of civil society and private sector in trade4. The EU intends to establish this new governance of international economic relations by means of Economic Partnership Agreements. In other words, it intends to focus on the logic of “Arguing” rather than in the logic of “Bargaining”5 (Xxxxx, 2000). In addition, the EU calls upon ACP countries to adopt good governance (democratic governance) and create governance indicators according to which ACP countries will be judged. However, many ACP countries dispute the use of the concept of governance by the EU, considering it pure rhetoric and an instrument of power and influence aiming to establish a new center(EU)-periphery(ACP) dependence in the new context of globalization. The controversy came to light during the negotiations of Economic Partnership Agreements (EPAs), which started in 2002 and were supposed to end by December 2007, but actually continued in 2008 and 2009. From the onset of negotiations, the European Commission affirms its commitment with the search for the truth, the common good, and consensus, but was unable to convince ACP countries, which benefited from the support of
