Abstract

The ‘new and improved’ CFSP has also been criticized as a weak foreign policy organ. This paper seeks to examine how the revamped CFSP components came into being by investigating the interstate negotiations behind them. Are they weak, and if so is it because they were the product of a lowest common denominator agreement among the Fifteen? Is Liberal Intergovernmentalism a useful tool in understanding these security components?
