Originally published in 1999, this is a detailed study of the European Union's Mediterranean Policy from the 1960s to the present, covering the Maghreb and Mashreq countries, Turkey, Malta, Israel, the Occupied Territories and Cyprus.
'...a most welcome study of the EU's Mediterranean policies. EU scholars have needed a thoroughly researched, clearly written and comprehensive study like this for a long time. A must read for EU scholars and practitioners alike.' Glenda Rosenthal, Columbia University, USA '...very intelligently sidesteps many of the more traditional approaches to Europe's Mediterranean policy...There is an abundance of well-researched information and expert interpretation...offers some unique insights into the institutional dynamics of the relationship.' Dr. Geoffrey Edwards, University of Cambridge, UK 'The strength of this excellent book resides in its global approach combined with a detailed description of specific issues.' World Affairs 'The authors have brilliantly managed to restructure the often confusing Euro-Mediterranean relations into a comprehensive, high quality and intellectually palatable academic work.'
