Biography
Fraser Cameron is one of the foremost experts on the external relations of the EU and has published widely on all aspects of European foreign policy. A former British diplomat and EU official, he is an adjunct professor at the Hertie School of Governance, Berlin, a senior advisor to the European Policy Centre and Director of the EU-Russia Centre and the EU–Asia Centre.
'An extremely useful and comprehensive overview of the current state of European foreign policy written in an accessible style by an experienced practioner with an excellent understanding of what is required in an introductory academic text.' - David Allen, Loughborough University, UK
'Much writing on European Foreign Policy falls into one of two camps. Either the account is bedeviled by an over preoccupation with detail or empirical reality is bypassed in favour of self referential theoretical debates. By contrast, Fraser Cameron drawing on his extensive experience as a practitioner has given us a masterly and wholly accessible account of the evolution of European Foreign Policy which will be required reading on EU courses.' - William E Paterson O.B.E., University of Birmingham, UK
On the eve of another crucial step on the long march towards a more robust European Union foreign policy capability under whatever form of new Treaty this book provides an excellent insider account - it describes in a pedagogic fashion the strength, the shortcomings and the organizational complexities of the EU's external action today. The book will be invaluable for all students engaged in European studies.' - Günter Burghardt - Ambassador (ret.), Visiting professor at the College of Europe and the University of Ghent, Belgium
