- Summary:
- Many of the US criticisms of Western European reluctance to engage in the 2004 war in Iraq stem from a perception that these governments are 'weak on defence'. This volume argues for a different explanation of Western European choices and policies, examining the emergent European security approach from multiple perspectives.
