The European Union as a Global Actor
This book focuses on the European Union as an important actor in international relations and international political economy. The EU negotiates international economic agreements, represents Europe in international organizations, and is a major trading bloc and currency area. To what extent and under what conditions the EU can use its considerable economic power to assert its interests in the international arena is a relevant question for students, researchers and practitioners alike. To explore this question, the textbook introduces the concept of “actorness” and presents an overview of the actorness debate and theories used to explain actorness. In addition, it includes three empirical chapters on trade, finance and climate policy that apply various concepts and theories to study European actorness in the respective policy areas.
When Do Paper Tigers Get Teeth?
Die präferentiellen Handelsabkommen der USA und der EU enthalten heutzutage durchgehend Sozialstandards zum Schutz von Arbeitern und der Umwelt. Doch während die USA einen sanktionsbasierten Ansatz verfolgen, vertraut die EU allein auf Dialog- und Kooperationsmechanismen.Dieses Buch unternimmt den Versuch zu erklären, warum die USA und die EU solch unterschiedliche Ansätze gewählt haben. Die Arbeit vergleicht dazu die Verhandlungen der USA und der EU mit Zentralamerika, Peru und Kolumbien sowie Südkorea. Die empirischen Befunde legen nahe, dass die gesellschaftlichen Präferenzen in den USA und Europa weitgehend deckungsgleich waren. Der unterschiedliche institutionelle Rahmen in den USA und der EU wandelten diese gesellschaftlichen Forderungen jedoch in unterschiedliche Politikergebnisse um. So haben die Charakteristika des politischen Systems der USA die Herausbildung sanktions-basierter Sozialstandards stärker begünstigt als das konsensorientierte System der EU.

The Baltic Sea Region: A Comprehensive Guide
The Baltic Sea Region, at the crossroads between East and West, North and South, has long been marked by cultural, ethnical and ideological borders. Overcoming a history of conflict and separation, since the end of the Cold War the countries surrounding the Baltic Sea established widely valued formats of regional cooperation based on shared challenges and opportunities. In comparison with larger regions, however, the Baltic Sea Area is still a blank spot on the global map. This volume's intention is to fill this spot with colour and facts. It provides students, young researchers and other interested parties with basic knowledge of the region. The volume offers a comprehensive introduction into its history, politics, economy and culture, taking into account the various countries' commonalities and differences. By introducing concepts of regionalism and region-building, as well as analysing the structures of regional cooperation the authors and editors demonstrate the Baltic Sea Area's model function as a European macro-region.--Back cover.
Thomas Tuchel
"Absorbing. An essential primer for Chelsea fans and a warning to everyone who isn't a Chelsea fan." – Daniel Finkelstein "Daniel and Tobias were on the Tuchel train from the beginning and they give you the full story of one of the most fascinating coaches in the game.
