Palestine in EU and Russian Foreign Policy

Statehood and the Peace Process

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book uses the school of constructivism to provide a new understanding of EU and Russian foreign policy, and the countries' failure to speed up the process of establishing a Palestinian state, despite its designation as a priority in their involvement in the Middle East peace process. Palestinian statehood provides a telling example of how identity and Self-Other perception inform foreign policy-making by global actors. The book explains why the EU and Russia are so eager to be involved in any step towards a peace settlement, as well as showing to what extent the Self-perception of global actorness maintains and boosts EU and Russian influence in the region.

Rezensionen

"The author competently untangles the various facets of diplomacy, exposing key actors and their intentions while showing what is routinely unacknowledged in favour of pretence and false hopes. Palestine does not have an ally in either entity - it is being exploited for influence in the region, which is where EU and Russian interests lie."
