Contents Actors and actorness in global politics: locating the European Union -- The EU as an economic power and trade actor -- International environmental diplomacy: the union's growing role -- Development cooperation: the EC in North/South relations -- Ever closer association? Relations with the 'near abroad' -- Towards a common foreign and security policy? -- Defence of the Union, security of Europe -- Identity, legitimacy, eligibility: delimiting EU actorness?
Summary "This book is the first sustained analysis of the EU in global politics. It reveals that the EU is a multifaceted and variable actor, which cannot be fitted into any orthodox template of a nation state. Issues covered include how the field of trade relations forms the basis of the EU's activities, and the EU's controversial relationship to CFSP and defense."--BOOK JACKET
