| dc.description.abstract | The European Union (EU) is an international organization that has a great influence in the economic field. The EU acts as a responsible regulatory power by using its excess power. The power that the EU has is called The “Brussels Effect”. The Brussels Effect can regulate global markets by setting standards in policies set by the EU. In this paper, the author explains how the Brussels Effect can affect the sale of legal timber based on the global timber trade scheme through the Forest Law Enforcement Governance and Trade-Voluntary Partnership Agreement (FLEGT-VPA). The analysis used in this paper uses a qualitative method based on the Complex Interdependence Theory by Robert O. Keohane and Joseph S. Nye. Sources of data used in the preparation of this research are various research reports and scientific studies that have been carried out previously and various books, scientific journals, and news reading materials that are related to the research topic.
