Reviews and Features

"In Global Europe Otto Holman, one of Europe's leading scholars of European integration, provides an extraordinarily compelling introduction to the relationship between the EU and the world. Through detailed and theoretically informed explorations of the Union's trade, enlargement, and security policies he demonstrates the relationship between the internal socio-economic crisis that now afflicts the Union, and external policy. This must-read book makes a significant contribution to the study of European politics, and EU, and international relations."
Alan W. Cafruny, Henry Bristol Professor of International Affairs, Hamilton College

Global Europe

The External Relations of the European Union

The European Union is facing the worst existential crisis in its 60-year history. At the same time, it is confronted with old and new challenges in its environment that call for joint action. But how do matters stand with the EU's capacity to act? Does the EU manage to effectively combine the different components of its external relations-such as trade, development aid, and security policy-better than it did in the past? How is the EU's external action determined by the internal socio-economic and political crises in its member states?

These questions and more are answered in 'Global Europe' in the context of the current impasse in the integration process. A clear analysis of the history of the EU's external relations up to now provides us with a better insight into the feasibility of EU strategies directed at the outside world.
