Annotation Summary:


This comprehensive assessment of EU foreign policy looks beyond the Common Foreign and Security Policy and the European Security and Defence Policy to also analyse foreign policy developed through other EU pillars and the interaction between EU institutions and member states. It addresses EU foreign policy towards the main regions of the world as well as today's strategic challenges. Up to date, jargon-free and supported by its own website, this is a systematic and innovative appraisal of this key policy area.
