‘The “liberal international order” that the United States and Europe dominated not so long ago is now seriously contested through a combination of the rise of rival authoritarian powers and the ascent of nativist/populist leaders. This thoughtful and compelling volume addresses the strategic responses across policy fields that a constrained Europe is pursuing in this changing global order.’
