Brexit and the EU as an International Actor

Brexit and the EU as an International Actor

Centre for European Politics

Abstract

The assessment of the impact of Brexit will need to be based on an understanding of the nature of EU foreign policy before Brexit. The chapter therefore starts out by presenting its understanding of the main features of European foreign policy. This understanding is that European foreign policy cooperation is institutionalized in such a way that it is more than the lowest common denominator amongst the member states at any given point in time. There are substantial acquis politiques , and these have been extended to a degree where the EU has stances on most issues in world politics. The chapter then goes on to presenting the likely changes arising from Brexit. The focus here is primarily on the direct effects of Brexit for EU foreign policy. The last section broadens the perspective and considers the implications of the wider processes that may combine with Brexit or that Brexit may reﬂect.
