This book reorients the study of European foreign and security
policy towards the question of democracy. Blending insights from
international relations and democratic theory, it aims to enhance
our understanding of the issues at stake. The main structures, the
institutional setting and the procedures that govern
decision-making in this domain are examined. In this way, the book
supplements studies with a more traditional focus on the substance
of foreign policy. What are the democratic challenges in this
distinct field of policy-making? The Common Foreign and Security
Policy (CFSP) of the European Union (EU) is usually assumed to be
intergovernmental. Contributors to this book examine the extent to
which a move beyond intergovernmentalism has taken place, how this
manifests itself, and what may be the democratic implications.
While the EU's international outlook testifies to a quest for
democracy, the institutions and procedures that govern
decision-making are found wanting. This book was originally
published as a special issue of Journal of European Public Policy.
