Summary

Foreign Policies of EU Member States offers a clear and up-to-date examination of the foreign policy motivations and outcomes within and beyond the EU of its twenty-eight Member States. The book innovatively organises content by themes, presenting detailed case studies that reveal the complexities of intra-EU cooperation, inter-EU foreign policies, and the sovereign foreign policies of individual states in areas like trade and defence.

It explores the challenges faced by Member States in cooperating through EU mechanisms such as the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP), constructing their own inter-EU foreign policies, and maintaining sovereign foreign policy actions globally.

This thematic and empirical approach makes the text an ideal resource for advanced students of European foreign policy, comparative European politics, and European studies.

This book is ideally suited for upper-level students and scholars specialising in European foreign policy, comparative European politics, and European studies, as well as policy-makers interested in the complexities of EU foreign policy-making.

This text provides a clear and current overview of the motivations and outcomes of EU Member States regarding their foreign policy-making within and beyond the EU. It provides an in-depth analysis of intra-EU policy-making, and sheds light in an innovative and understandable way on the lesser known aspects of the inter-EU and extra-EU foreign policies of the 28 Member States.

Description

Foreign Policies of EU Member States provides a clear and current overview of the motivations and outcomes of EU Member States regarding their foreign policy-making within and beyond the EU. It offers an in-depth analysis of intra-EU policy-making and sheds light, in an innovative and comprehensible manner, on the lesser-known aspects of the inter-EU and extra-EU foreign policies of the twenty-eight Member States.

The text employs an innovative method of thematic organisation, where case study state profiles emerge via dominant foreign policy themes. It examines the three main policy challenges currently faced by the twenty-eight Member States:

First, EU Member States must cooperate within the mechanisms of the EU, including the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP).
Second, EU Member States continue to construct their own inter-EU foreign policies.
Third, the sovereign prerogative exercised by all EU Member States is to construct their own foreign policies on everything from trade and defence with the rest of the world.

This combination of clarity, thematic structure, and empirical case studies makes this an ideal textbook for all upper-level students of European foreign policy, comparative European politics, and European studies.

Michael Smith from the University of Warwick praises the book as a significant advance in understanding EU foreign policies, highlighting its rich case studies and stimulating comparative analysis. The text is valued for linking historic and geostrategic foundations of Member States to domestic influences, offering indispensable insights for both academics and foreign policy-makers interested in the EU's challenge of achieving unity in diversity.
