Reviews
'This book cleverly contrasts opposing views about ten of the main topics of the CSDP since its inception in 1998. The strength of the analysis is based on the adoption of an innovative approach for uncovering the limits of absolute explanations and on the subtle persuasion to develop a more balanced, selective and accurate assessment of the CSDP.' Roberto Dominguez, Suffolk University, Boston, USA 'In this worthy contribution to the existing literature on CSDP, Maxime Larive takes a comprehensive and somewhat controversial approach to this EU policy as each topic is deconstructed through a range of apposite theoretical explanations. LariveI's book is valuable for both International Relations and EU studies scholars willing to better understand European integration and the value of security and defence policy as a tool for projecting Europe as an international actor, and for founding a European identity.' Natividad FernaIndez Sola, University of Zaragoza, Spain 'The book is structured in a functional way that guides the reader in discovering and examining this crucial subject in depth. ... the plain language and schematic structure make the book suitable for students aiming to acquire a critical awareness of the subject. Larive succeeds in putting readers in an active position, challenging their opinions and knowledge of the subject.' International Spectator
