“This will serve well both students and scholars of European integration, and practitioners interested in understanding more about EU foreign policy dynamics. … Amadio Viceré’s book is a must-read for all researchers who wish to explore in more depth recent institutional initiatives, such as Mogherini’s EU Global Strategy or the establishment of Permanent Structured Cooperation (PESCO) in Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) by using an original analytical framework that goes beyond the supranational-intergovernmental dichotomy.” (Giulia Tercovich, The International Spectator, Vol. 54 (4), 2019)
