Rezensionen

'With an expert set of contributors eruditely tackling the EU's capacity for influence in the new international environment this is a must-read for analysts and practitioners seeking insight on THE foreign policy challenge for Europe.' Richard G. Whitman, University of Kent, UK 'This edited collection by Renard and Biscop offers an in-depth analysis of on-going challenges and changes to the international security structure.
