This volume investigates the multifaceted and often contradictory roles the European Union assumes within the complex arena of international politics. Edited by Ole Elgström and Michael Smith, the text assembles contributions from leading scholars in European foreign policy to analyze how the EU constructs, projects, and maintains its identity on the global stage. The authors utilize role theory as a primary analytical framework to evaluate whether the EU acts as a normative power, a civilian power, or a pragmatic policy entrepreneur in various international contexts.

Experts identify this collection as a foundational text for understanding the intersection of identity and foreign policy within the European Union.
