Debates on EU foreign policy have been dominated by two opposing
schools of argument. One includes a broad range of work that extols
the virtues of a European liberal concept of power and the other
sees the EU's commitment to cosmopolitan liberalism and soft power
as a sign of weakness rather than strength. This book judges the EU
on its own terms as a liberal power, examining its policy record,
rather than simply asserting that the EU's liberal commitments in
themselves denote either a superior or inferior foreign policy
approach. Youngs argues that the challenges facing Europe's role in
the world appear to be in its retreat from liberal internationalism
through a series of case studies on policy areas: trade,
multilateral diplomacy, security, development cooperation,
democracy and human rights, and energy security. Presenting
detailed evidence that show the EU is moving away from cosmopolitan
strategy, Youngs asserts that Europe needs to reassess its foreign
policies if it is to defend the kind of liberal world order
necessary for its own and other countries' long term interests.
This book will be of strong interest to students and scholars of
European politics, Foreign Policy and International Relations.
