For a Strenthening of European Union Foreign and Security Policy

In this working paper, the European Union's role in the world is analysed first of all everything that has to do with the role of the United States, using a critical look at the scenery designed by Huntington and Fukuyama. Next, the Union's need to reinforce its foreign and security policy is stated, not only to survive but to project its pacific view of international relations as well, contrary to the traditional realist vision. In the third place, a complex-free European foreign policy is advocated, providing comments on factors that affect the development of such policy. And lastly some ideas are given on how the European Union's foreign policy should be, in order to make an original and effective contribution to a globalised world
