Recenzje

'The present edited volume is a remarkable and original attempt to study the active role of the Union and its raison d'être, 'zooming in' on the international scene, arguably in return of the process of European integration to its roots in international relations … What is even more revolutionary about the book is the conclusion drawn by the editors that the Union's role of co-shaper of the international legal order is a 'conscious choice', as opposed to an 'unexpected side-effect of the Union's engagement with the international legal order' and that the EU has been 'refining' and 'intensifying' its involvement with the international legal order.' Stéphanie Laulhé Shaelou, Yearbook of European Law
