Rezensionen

"Precisely for this critical attitude, bird's eye perspective on Europe, and external view, I would genuinely recommend this book, not only to academics, but, more importantly, also to European politicians and opinion-makers. It could be an eye-opener to many Europeans, who still look at their continent from an inward angle and reflect far too little on how Europe is being perceived in India and other parts of the world." (Idesbald Goddeeris, International Studies, Vol. 56 (2-3), 2019)

"The conceptual focus on evolution and working of the EU is particularly useful. The healthy blend of Indian scholars from different generations has led to a body of knowledge that synergises the much needed new and path-breaking ideas with wisdom and experience. It is a timely and thought-provoking work and should inspire further research and discourse on the subject." (Shreya Pandey, Strategic Analysis, Vol. 43 (2), 2019)
