Contents

This book was born of our frustration with what we felt to be a gap in the literature on the international relations of the European Union. For a number of years since, this book has also been our frustration. Deciding what to leave out was harder than writing about what we chose to include, and in the process undoubtedly contributed handsomely to the coffers of Anglo-German telecommunications companies. Frustration was incurred too as a consequence of the awkward habit of the EU and of contemporary international relations of evolving just as the ink dried on the manuscript. Eventually a line had to be drawn in early December 2003 and for this we will be forever grateful to our publishers!

Along the way we have incurred numerous personal and professional debts. We are grateful to the officials of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation, Western European Union, European Commission and the Council of the European Union who spared us their time and indulged our questions to provide us with essential background and insights. Our thanks also go to the referees of the book, and to colleagues who have read chapters, for their guidance and constructive comments. It is also important to register our gratitude for the research funding afforded by the School of European Studies at Cardiff University and to Morten Fuglevand at Pearson, who stood by us through our ill health and/or personal loss. A special mention from us both goes to Dr Lorenzo-Dus for her painstaking proof-reading and suggestions for textual refinement.

Finally our deepest thanks must go to our respective family and friends. They have maintained our sanity, reminded us at key moments that there is more to life than academia, and sustained us in so many ways. They have also underwritten the costs of this book through enduring our moods and sacrificing precious time with us as we each retreated into our thoughts and studies. Herein Hans Mackenstein would like to express his special thanks to Peter and Steve Marsh to Nuria. Thank you, both.
