This updated edition features contributions from leading experts, analyzing regional cooperation models in a multipolar world, addressing globalization challenges, and examining the EU's role in international relations and governance.
European Union and New Regionalism is a comprehensive exploration of regional cooperation in a multipolar world, crafted by an international and multidisciplinary team of leading experts. This updated edition builds on the foundation laid by its predecessors, with the first edition published at the end of the last century and the second edition expanding on inter-regional relations. The latest edition introduces new chapters that delve into the complexities of regional cooperation, particularly focusing on the role of the European Union.
The book offers a comparative analysis of regional cooperation, contrasting US-centered and EU-centered interregionalism. It addresses critical themes such as the tension between regionalism and globalization, highlighting the potential for regional collaboration to contribute to global economic and political governance, especially during challenging times. Additionally, it presents a thoughtful critique of prevailing views regarding the EU's international identity, providing readers with a nuanced understanding of its role in the global arena.
Designed as a key resource for both postgraduate and undergraduate studies, this volume is invaluable for those interested in international relations, European integration, comparative politics, and international political economy. It includes contributions from respected scholars, ensuring a rich and diverse perspective on the subject matter. The book also features an appendix detailing regional and interregional organizations, making it a vital reference for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of contemporary regional dynamics.
’European Union and New Regionalism raises crucial questions about regionalism in the contemporary world. How do globalization and domestic politics shape and constrain regionalism? How does regionalism, in turn, affect patterns of globalization and domestic politics in participating states? This volume constitutes an important contribution to our understanding of regionalism’s causes and effects.’ Robert O. Keohane, Princeton University, USA ’With its 3rd edition this volume gains the status of a classic. Indeed, European Union and New Regionalism provides extremely useful new insights into the study of regions and regional integration from various theoretical perspectives and through a comparative approach. It further has the merit to assess the relevance of the EU as a regional power in a number of domains. This book is a key reference for students and academics interested in the current trends in regionalism.’ Luk Van Langenhove, United Nations University Institute on Comparative Regional Integration Studies, Belgium ’European Union and New Regionalism is a timely relaunch of the debate on how the EU affects regional cooperation across the globe. Mario Telò and his team succeed in setting the academic research agenda. The volume hosts innovative, new chapters on NAFTA, Latin America, and EU-Russian relations. It enriches the literature, juxtaposing global and domestic influences and emphasizing the notion of competing regionalisms.’ Bertjan Verbeek, Radboud University Nijmegen, Netherlands
