Abstract

[From the Introduction]. This essay surveys trends in book and book chapter works on European Community (EC) foreign policy during 1987-93. Although the EC does not have a common foreign policy, it does have specific foreign policies and it takes foreign policy actions. Usage of the term "EC foreign policy" in this piece recognizes that the EC is not a state but is a foreign policy actor. Actions of the EC and its foreign policy forum, European Political Cooperation (EPC), are included under the umbrella of "EC foreign policy" . The number of works covered is a floor, not a ceiling. The author apologizes if he left out any references and welcomes responses to his normative interpretations. With a few exceptions, periodical literature is not covered in this draft but will be covered in the final report. The essay's scope is also limited because it does not include non-English works. There is a rich body of literature in, for example, German to which most Americans will not enjoy access. More foreign language training and more translations are needed!
