The book launch has been postponed. The new date will be published as soon as possible.
During this book launch and panel discussion Nikki Ikani will discuss her recent book, ‘Crisis and change in European Union foreign policy’.
The book centralises a set of questions: What happens to European foreign policy arrangements after a crisis hits? Is EU foreign policy changed as a consequence and if so, how and by whom exactly? And crucially: do things actually change? In the book Ikani studies the decision-making processes of the European Union, to find out which factors determine if and how the EU decides to change its foreign policy course after crisis.
Taking the findings of this book as a starting point, the panel will address the current war in Ukraine, its strategic consequences for the Union and how it may affect European foreign and defence policy in the time ahead.
