In summary, this new volume offers a rich and dense panorama of the multiple challenges that the EU confronts in its daily external action, including many that remain underexplored in the literature. One of the originalities of this anthology lies in the comparative dimension of the issues examined. Moreover, while many of the questions investigated appear at first sight to be niche issues, the volume develops a web of interconnections that raise overarching and even paradigmatic questions The collections balance coupled with the originality of the approaches adopted in many of its chapters demonstrate, overall, the volumes strength: it brings together internal market and EU external action specialists as well as trade policy analysts to shed important new light on some of the most topical challenges faced by the EU on the global economic stage. -- Julien Mieral, University of Cambridge * European Law Review *

At some 500 pages, Sixty Years of European Integration and Global Power Shifts is not a brief bedtime story. Yet its page range reflects one of the books major strengths: its comprehensive nature, which has become so characteristic of Julien Chaisses work. Another of Chaisses fortes, to bring together a wide variety of people working on different aspects of a certain theme, is equally displayed in the book, which includes contributions from academics, legal practitioners (including arbitrators), policy advisors and consultants, and a judge of the Court of Justice of the European Union These make Sixty Years of European Integration and Global Power Shifts especially valuable reading whilst a pandemic is raging through the world, stopping nearly all, but geopolitics. * Foreign Trade Review *
