Mehr zum Buch

Set in the post-war era, the book explores Western Europe's shift towards economic integration while stepping back from colonial duties. It examines how European Political Cooperation, particularly through the 1980 Venice Declaration, shaped foreign policy amidst superpower influences on post-colonial conflicts. Following the Berlin Wall's fall, the EU's response to emerging crises led to the European Security & Defence Policy, emphasizing a multidimensional approach to security that includes norm transmission, economic cooperation, and civilian crisis management, illustrated through case studies in Israel, Iraq, and Morocco.
