This article explores major theoretical approaches to the study of European integration, European Union (EU) as a globalpower, and the EU Common Foreign and Security Policy. The argument presented here is that only a combination of bothInternational Relations and European integration approaches will allow us to understand the very premises of the Europeanintegration project in terms of both internal and external – international-aspects. This approach will be complementaryto the attempts by researchers those who call to mainstream European studies and an appeal in favor of aboundingthe project of conceptualizing the EU as a single case or as being Sui generis. This article argues that, despite seriousattempts by scholars of the field of European studies, it seems difficult to theorize European integration. The establishedliterature to the existing political entities seems less relevant to study EU due to the union's unique identity. Theoriesof EU integration are unable to explain or predict the process of integration, but they are normally outpaced by events.

This book examines how the different normative foundations of conflict resolution held by various global actors, their understandings of justice, and the differences between types of conflict influence the varying means by which conflicts can be prevented, managed, and ultimately resolved. By combining insights from political theory, conflict studies, and European Union (EU) foreign policy studies, the book identifies the EU as the key case of a conflict manager that is both a product and a defender of a global liberal order. It focuses on three aspects of conflict resolution that pose their own sets of both normative and empirical dilemmas: resolving border disputes; strengthening the resilience of weak or divided states and societies after regime change, and intervention in humanitarian crises. Furthermore, it offers a comparative analysis between a potentially distinctive European approach and that of other global actors and reflects critically on situations where policy practice may not always reflect a concern for justice, asking what countervailing forces prevail and why.
