About
In 1999, the European Union appointed its first High Representative for Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP), as part of an effort to provide Europe with a more pronounced profile and greater voice in world affairs. This book undertakes the first systematic examination of this important office, within the framework of CFSP governance. By considering the topic from various perspectives, it explores the ways in which the first appointee to the position - Javier Solana - shaped and expanded the role of his new office. The contributions examine the structures and services that Solana put in place, as well as his (at times) contentious relationship with other central players in CFSP. It also investigates what international role Solana sought for the EU and where he placed his political and regional priorities. Solana's accomplishments are the standard by which his successor will be measured now that the office has been fundamentally enhanced through the Treaty of Lisbon.
