Analysing the Foreign Policy of Small States in the EU

the long version

"Can a distinct national foreign policy still be identified for small EU member states? What determines the balance between national and EU foreign policy? Henrik Larsen develops a framework for analysing these questions and offers solutions though an empirical examination of the foreign policy as a small member state - Denmark - in the context of EU foreign policy. It is suggested that we need a new, mixed approach to foreign policy analysis within the EU, taking into account the nature of the policy area concerned and national conceptions of actorness."--Jacket.
