• New books October 2022

Highlights:

• The concept of solidarity: energy policy in the European Union

"Solidarity is a fuzzy concept although it is a core concept of the EU historically. Aline Bartenstein's book contributes to the clarification and analysis of the concept of solidarity between EU member states."

• Rapport Schuman sur l'Europe : l'état de l'Union 2022

"La guerre en Ukraine ajoute une crise à la suite impressionnante de difficultés auxquelles l’Union européenne a été confrontée ces dernières années. Après la crise financière, après la pandémie, la voici désormais face à un nouveau défi d’une ampleur inégalée depuis 1950 : le retour de la guerre sur le continent."

• State of the Union: Schuman report on Europe 2022

"The war in Ukraine has added another crisis to the impressive string of difficulties that the European Union has faced in recent years. After the financial crisis, then the pandemic, it now faces a new challenge of a magnitude not seen since 1950: the return of war to the continent."

• Constitutional change in the European Union: towards a federal Europe

"Europe’s future is contested between those who want to integrate further, those who prefer things to stay as they are, and those who would retreat into nationalism."

• Taiwan and the changing dynamics of Sino-US relations: a relationality approach

"Ever since China surpassed Japan to become the world’s second largest economy, it has appeared to shift its policy shift from “biding our time” and a self-described “peaceful rise” toward increased assertiveness in regional and international affairs."

• Geopolitics of the illicit: linking the Global South and Europe

"This anthology examines different dimensions of illicit commodity flows and asks how they can be understood through a geographical lens that looks from the Global South to Europe."
