Issues covered include: the EU as an International actor; external policy-making; the changing state of transatlantic relations and asks whether the EU and US are more friends or rivals?; EU's relations with its principal neighbours; EU and Russia; EU and Asia; EU and the Developing World; EU and global governance; EU and conflict prevention; and, a European army?
