EU Foreign Policy Beyond the Nation State: Joint Action and Institutional Analysis of the Common Foreign and Security Policy

EU Foreign Policy Beyond the Nation-State analyses how the 'three pillar' structure of the European Union influences decisions in the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP). The authors criticise traditional models of foreign policy analysis and go beyond existing state-centric approaches. They employ three case studies - Bosnia, Chechnya and former Yugoslavia/MOSTAR - to test the quality and the type of decisions taken in foreign policy beyond the nation-state.
