Product Information
ItalyÆs Foreign Policy in the Twenty-First Century: The New Assertiveness of an Aspiring Middle Power, edited by Giampiero Giacomello and Bertjan Verbeek, shows how changes in ItalyÆs international and domestic environment since the early 1990s have affected ItalyÆs foreign policy and raised its aspiration to become, and be treated as, a middle power. The contributors theoretically engage with both rationalist and constructivist accounts of middle-power. The contributors theoretical engage with both rationalist and constructivist accounts of middle-power behavior. They reveal that the end of the Cold War, the advent of globalization, and the rise in institutionalized regional cooperation have increased ItalyÆs freedom to maneuver. At the same time, however, these changes have decreased ItalyÆs policy freedom as a result of delegation of policy competencies to the European Union and the need for cooperation in a globalized world. Domestic changes, notably the transition from the First to the Second Republic and the transformation of political leadership under Prime Minister Silivio Berlusconi, have altered the way domestic politics is played out in foreign policy. Rather than adopting the more common focus on ItalyÆs bilateral relations with other counties or regions, this collection centers on actors, issues and policy instruments in vital areas of ItalyÆs foreign policy. In addition, it discusses the search for ItalyÆs position in global affairs and emphasized the importance of leadership styles, domestic political agendas, and party rhetoric in determining ItalyÆs foreign policy. As Giacomello and VerbeekÆs volume demonstrates, consistency with such strategic prescription has always been a problematic undertaking for various Italian governments. Book jacket.

Reviews
"Understanding middle-sized powers is the most important challenge facing analysts of foreign affairs. Such countries not only make the difference between the success and failure of 'coalitions of the willing'; they also provide leadership and initiative where greater powers fail to act. Italy is a case in point. As this collection edited by Giampiero Giacomello and Bertjan Verbeek shows, Italy has built significant relationships--not just with the United States and the other countries of Europe, but in crucial hot-spots like Lebanon, Libya, and Iran. Italy also played important roles in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Kosovo. The challenge is to understand when Italy will act and when it will retreat into the background. International conditions create the context, but domestic politics provides both the motivation and constraint. Giacomello and Verbeek's collection offers essential insight into the operation of Italian foreign policy. It should be read not just by those interested to learn about Italy, but also by anyone who seeks to understand the role of middle-sized powers in current affairs." --Erik Jones, Johns Hopkins University, Italy's Foreign Policy in the Twenty-First Century: The New Assertiveness of an Aspiring Middle Power is recommended reading for scholars, practitioners and citizens interested in Italy's international affairs. In fact, it is not only a valuable contribution to the study of Italian foreign policy as a promising strand of research, but also an important effort to encourage a much needed debate on Italy's international agenda inside and outside the country., "This volume offers the first comprehensive analysis of Italy's foreign policy as a 'middle power.' Its updated analysis of usually dismissed facets of Italy's foreign policy makes the volume necessary reading for scholars and practitioners in the field." --Piero Ignazi, Università di Bologna
