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 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 twenty-eight Member States. The text has an innovative method of thematic organisation in which case study state profiles emerge via dominant foreign policy themes. The text 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 make this an ideal textbook for all upper-level students of European foreign policy, comparative European politics and European studies.

Reviews for Foreign Policies of EU Member States: Continuity and Europeanisation

'An extremely useful and comprehensive overview of the current state of European foreign policy written in an accessible style by an experienced practioner with an excellent understanding of what is required in an introductory academic text.' - David Allen, Loughborough University, UK 'Much writing on European Foreign Policy falls into one of two camps. Either the account is bedeviled by an over preoccupation with detail or empirical reality is bypassed in favour of self referential theoretical debates. By contrast, Fraser Cameron drawing on his extensive experience as a practitioner has given us a masterly and wholly accessible account of the evolution of European Foreign Policy which will be required reading on EU courses.' - William E Paterson O.B.E., University of Birmingham, UK On the eve of another crucial step on the long march towards a more robust European Union foreign policy capability under whatever form of new Treaty this book provides an excellent insider account - it describes in a pedagogic fashion the strength, the shortcomings and the organizational complexities of the EU's external action today. The book will be invaluable for all students engaged in European studies.' - Gunter Burghardt - Ambassador (ret.), Visiting professor at the College of Europe and the University of Ghent, Belgium
