The EU in International Negotiations / Palgrave Studies in European Union Politics (PDF)

"Magdalena Frennhoff Larsén's book makes a welcome and significant contribution to the sparse literature on the EU as an international negotiator. It fills a major gap in our understanding of EU negotiation behaviour by examining the interplay between internal and external bargaining games. The four case- studies brilliantly illustrate the intricacies and complexity of external negotiations. The book will serve as a major reference point for students and scholars alike."

-Ole Elgström, Professor emeritus, Lund University, Sweden

"The EU in International Negotiations breaks new ground in providing a comprehensive account of the practices of the EU as an international negotiator. In its cogent analysis drawing comparisons and contrasts between negotiations on trade, development, enlargement and withdrawal negotiations undertaken by the EU it deserves to be widely read by scholars of the EU."

-Professor Richard Whitman, University of Kent, UK
