Rezensionen

'Since 2004 the number of EU Member States has almost doubled, growing from 15 to 28. As the President of the European Commission that has managed this expansion I know that the significance of this extends well beyond arithmetic: it is our mind-sets that have changed. Kaminska's book offers a deep insight into this fascinating process that is so difficult to capture: how the Polish interests, policies, and negotiation strategies transformed in the last ten years and how Poland moved from policy-taker to a genuine policy-shaper.' - José Manuel Durão Barroso, President, The European Commission

'Poland and EU Enlargement is a fascinating study of Poland's place in the EU's foreign and security policy. In exploring both the impact of the EU's role on Poland's foreign policy and the extent of Poland's influence on the EU's external relations it is the most comprehensive assessment of Poland's foreign policy transition to date.' - Richard G. Whitman, University of Kent, UK
