“This study highlights that the coherence of EU policy towards the East is mainly linked to its members’ capacity to reconcile their political and historical foreign policy identities. The book will be of particular interest to policy-makers, students and specialists of the EU and East Central Europe, as well as to the larger public interested in European integration.” (Pol-Int.org, July, 2015)
