Reviews
"Bringing together a stellar line-up of distinguished EU practitioners and LSE faculty members, Martin Westlake's edited collection makes a timely contribution to better understanding the current challenges – and opportunities – for the EU’s external action ten years after the coming into force of the Lisbon Treaty. ” (Sieglinde Gstöhl, Director, EU International Relations and Diplomacy Studies, College of Europe, Belgium)
“European foreign policy is a constantly moving object. As such, the perspective of those who practise it daily is key. Through the views of high-level European officials alongside the framing of top academics in the field, this book is a must-read for anyone wishing to understand the complexity of the EU's role in the world.” (Nathalie Tocci, Director, Istituto Affari Internazionali, Italy)"The EU is not a foreign policy actor fully formed, but it is one in the making. So far, its record is mixed, and yet the EU’s potential for influence is impressive. The key is to know where to look. Martin Westlake has drawn together an outstanding group of practitioners with a wealth of institutional as well as intellectual experience. Their insights make essential reading for anyone looking to understand the European Union’s world role." (Erik Jones, Professor of European Studies and International Political Economy, and Director of European and Eurasian Studies, Johns Hopkins University, USA)
