EUROPEAN FOREIGN POLICY AND THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT IN THE 1990s

The book investigates the European Parliaments stance vis--vis two major events of the 1990s: the Gulf and the Yugoslav crises. In unveiling the parliamentary multi-faceted view of these events, reference has been made to the positions taken by constituent political groups and their voting behaviour. In particular, the following questions have been addressed: has the European Parliament sought to define and shape a common foreign policy with respect to the above crises? What specific functions have the European Parliaments political groups performed? Have they succeeded to achieving an internal cohesion? Has the European Parliament overcome divisions among its members through the formation of party coalitions? Despite the considerable flow of published material on external relations of the European Union and the European Parliament, virtually no study has explored in-depth the links between these two areas. The purpose of this book is to fill the gap in the existing literature, breaking new ground by combining a qualitative and quantitative analysis of parliamentary behaviour in the field of foreign policy.

Donatella M. Viola has done a meticulous forensic job of examining the roles of political groups in the European Parliament. She has greatly added to our knowledge on how foreign policy is understood and scrutinised at the European level.

Christopher Hill, Wilson E Schmidt Distinguished Professor at Johns Hopkins SAIS Europe and Emeritus Professor at the University of Cambridge

This book is required reading for any student of the European Parliament or of the development and management of European foreign policy. It is a lucid account of a complex but vitally important subject for the emerging European Union arrangements at a time of impending enlargement.

Paul Taylor, Emeritus Professor at the London School of Economics

This is an important study of a neglected area of research on the European Parliament. It is a welcome addition to the literature.

Juliet Lodge, Emeritus Professor at the University of Leeds

Viola has been Visiting Scholar at the College of Europe in Bruges, Belgium as well as Visiting Professor at the Academy of European Public Law in Greece, TEI-Serres, Greece, University of Malta, Friedrich-Alexander Universitt of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany and University College London, Great Britain. Editor and main contributor of the Routledge Handbook of European Elections, Routledge, 2016, 2018.

To my parents, Natalina Scambia and Francesco Viola, for their love and support, and in loving memory of my grandmother, Agota Bucarelli.

In the belief that the pursuit of the
grand European design is of vital
importance to our own and
future generations.
