Description
Book SynopsisThis path-breaking book explores the new European energy policy, highlighting the significance of environmental policy concerns, instruments, and objectives vis-Ã-vis competing security and market dimensions in order to achieve an all-embracing EU energy policy perspective for the future.
Trade ReviewThis book analyses a highly important topic. It is based on a comprehensive and empirically rich assessment of European energy policy, including both internal and external determinants. Its encompassing approach and the thoughtful combination of different analytical perspectives makes the book an important and fresh contribution to the field.

Energy was one of the founding pillars of European integration, while environmental concerns have become an identity sign of today's European Union energy policy. However, notwithstanding the obvious links between both issues, little attention has been devoted to the complex relationship between the EU's environmental performance and the Europeanization of its energy policy. This book, carefully edited by Morata and Solorio, has come to fill this gap becoming a ''must'' to understand the interactions between these two fundamental drivers of EU policies.
