European Union as a Small Power

Explore the complexities of global politics in "European Union as a Small Power" by A. Toje, published by Palgrave Macmillan in 2010. This insightful book, spanning 250 pages, delves into the challenges faced by the European Union in a rapidly changing multipolar world. As the post-Cold War era draws to a close, Toje argues that the EU's internal divisions and weak external presence hinder its ability to assert itself on the global stage. The author highlights the critical need for a functional decision-making mechanism within the EU, positioning it to play a limited yet distinct role as a small power in international relations. This thought-provoking analysis is essential for anyone interested in European politics and global governance.
