Reviews
“. . . most importantly, however, this study questions why at this point the EU decided to initiate negotiations with, in Garcia’s words, a ‘distant country with a population of around 15 million and that accounts for a mere 0.4 percent of EU foreign trade’.” – Prof. Michelle Cini, University of Bristol
“. . . extremely essential for all practitioners or officers like me who have already been involved or who prepare for any FTA negotiation in the globe.” – Dr. Sungwook Yoon, European Trade Division
“. . . will be of great use to anyone interested in the relations between the European Union and Latin America, in particular the Southern Cone, over the last decades. . . . provides interesting insights into EU perspectives on the Southern cone, by providing a wealth of detail and close scrutiny of relevant documents.”
– Prof. Artemisa Montes Sylvan, Universidad de las Americas
