Europe's Foreign and Security Policy: the Institutionalization of Cooperation af Michael E. Smith (Bog)

What it is and What it Does Arguing that the European Union is a foreign policy actor, "albeit a peculiar one," Smith (international relations, U. of Warwick, UK) explores the foreign policy capabilities and priorities of the EU. Not limiting herself to the Common Foreign and Security Policy of the EU, Smith considers foreign policy of the EU to be the compilation of all of its activities abroad and suggests that it has a "comprehensive, extensive and sometimes remarkably effective" foreign policy.The book is distributed by Stylus.
