'Urbanski's work makes an important contribution to the study of EU foreign policy by rigouroulsy defining and operationalising the notion of actorness - a concept that had remained surprisingly vague in the literature. In addition, it constitutes one of the most serious and original studies of EU sanctions policy, recognising nuances in EU actorness across different sanction types.' --Clara Portela, University of Valencia, Spain'This book is a path-breaking study of the origins of EU action capability in the field of international sanctions. Urbanski carefully conceptualizes the EU as an actor in its own right and shows that the EU frequently gains foreign policy action capability not from intentional efforts of its member states to join forces and speak with a single voice, but from spill-overs of internal policies.' --Thomas Gehring, University of Bamberg, Germany
