Over the past ten years the European Union has been steadily equipping itself with a new foreign policy that has seen new institutions, and new roles for old ones, new services, new treaty obligations, as well as new challenges. This volume brings together senior practitioners (from the European External Action Service, the European Commission, and the European Parliament) and academic specialists to consider how this new foreign policy has been evolving and how the various actors are maintaining the holistic approach intended by the draftsmen of the 2009 Lisbon Treaty. Topics covered include: championing multilateralism, human rights, values and interests, security and defence, trade, parliamentary diplomacy, cultural diplomacy, creating and managing a new diplomatic service, looking after 'the neighbourhood', the 'pivot' to Africa, the EU and the Arctic region, climate diplomacy, as well as cyber threats and defence. The two concluding chapters measure the progress made and identify challenges that need to be overcome.
