Description

Product Description This book investigates the European involvement in managing the nuclear dispute with Iran, shedding new light on EU foreign policy-making. The author focuses on the peculiar format through which the EU managed Iran’s nuclear issue: a ‘lead group’ consisting of France, Germany and the UK and the High Representative for EU foreign policy (E3/EU). The experience of the E3/EU lends credibility to the claim that lead groups give EU foreign policy direction and substance. The E3/EU set up a negotiating framework that worked as a de-escalating tool, a catalyst for Security Council unity and a forum for crisis management. They inflicted pain on Iran by adopting a comprehensive sanctions regime, but did so only having secured US commitment to a diplomatic solution. Once the deal was reached, they defended it vigorously. The E3/EU may have been supporting actors, but their achievements were real. Review “Riccardo Alcaro has produced a superbly researched and written book making a major contribution to the study of EU foreign policy. A must read for anyone wishing to understand the intricacies of the EU’s major foreign policy success to date – the E3/3 nuclear deal with Iran – as well as the specific role that lead groups play in the making of such policy.” (Nathalie Tocci, Director of the International Affairs Institute (IAI), Italy and Personal Advisor to High Representative Mogherini) “In his outstanding analysis of the role of EU lead groups in the negotiations over Iran’s nuclear power programme, Alcaro combines fascinating historical detail with thought-provoking theoretical reflection. Whatever happens to the further development of EU foreign policy, the important role of lead groups will not go away, and this book is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand how they work.” (Professor Thomas Diez, University of Tübingen, Germany) From the Back Cover This book investigates the European involvement in managing the nuclear dispute with Iran, shedding new light on EU foreign policy-making.
