This book offers a comprehensive narrative of how the European Union came to organize the continent, first by default through enlargement and in a more proactive, innovative, but not always successful way. The EU was not conceived as a foreign-policy actor, she says, and the Union was an innocent on questions of geopolitics. For readers who may wonder how the EU arrived at Brexit, the invasion of Ukraine, and the refugee crisis, Le Gloannec ties events to the EU's long-term failure to think in politically strategic terms. Le Gloannec takes readers through the process by which, under the security umbrella of the United States, the European Commission engineered a new way for states and societies to interact. Continent by Default shows the Commission domesticated international relations and promoted peace by including new members-enlargement was the most significant tool the EU used from its inception to organize the continent, but the EU also tied itself to its regional neighbors through various programs that too often gave those neighbors the advantage. As Continent by Default makes clear, the EU cannot devise strategy because foreign policy remains the privilege of national governments. It is a geopolitical actor without geopolitical means. 606 $aEuropean cooperation$2FBC 606 $aEurope$xForeign relations 606 $aEU$2FBC 606 $aGeopolitik$2FBC 607 $aEurope$xForeign relations 615 7$aEuropean cooperation. 615 0$aEurope$xForeign relations. 615 7$aEU 615 7$aGeopolitik 676 $a341.242/2 686 $a339$2z 700 $aLe Gloannec$b Anne Marie, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0569861 701 $aGloannec$b Anne-Marie Le$01134614 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910796584603321 996 $aContinent by default$93814082 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02510oas 22004212 450 001 9910891685603321 005 20231024121001.0 011 0 $a2074-7144 024 7 $a10.1787/20747144 035 $a(CKB)2590000000002975 035 $a(FR-PaOEC)20747144 035 $a(DE-599)ZDB2676981-5 035 $a(NjHacI)992590000000002975 035 $a(EXLCZ)992590000000002975 100 $a20171201b1998||| |y e 101 0 $afre 135 $aur||#|||||n|| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aPerspectives de la science, de la technologie et de l'industrie /$fOrganisation de coopération et de développement économiques 210 $aParis $cOECD Publishing 210 1$aParis :$cOECD Publishing,$d2001. 215 $a1 online resource 311 08$a1028-8155 330 3 $aExamen bisannuel exhaustif de l?OCDE des principales tendances de la politique de la science, de la technologie et de l?innovation dans les pays de l?Organisation. Ce rapport fait le point sur les principales tendances dans la zone de l?OCDE et analyse de manière plus approfondie certains thèmes spécifiques qui constituent les priorités des responsables de l?élaboration des politiques de l?innovation, tels que le rôle des droits de propriété intellectuelle et des marchés des concessions de licences technologiques dans les performances de l?innovation, les politiques destinées à accroître les retombées positives de l?internationalisation de la R-D des entreprises, les ressources humaines de la science et de la technologie, et l?évaluation de la politique de l?innovation. Si cet examen est principalement axé sur les faits intervenant dans les pays de l?OCDE, il souligne également l?évolution d?un certain nombre d?économies non membres importantes, dont la Chine, la Russie et l?Afrique du Sud. Une annexe fournit les statistiques les plus récentes sur le financement de la R-D, les brevets, les chercheurs et d?autres indicateurs des performances de l?innovation. 606 $aScience and Technology 606 $aIndustry and Services 606 $aScience and state 615 4$aScience and Technology. 615 4$aIndustry and Services. 615 0$aScience and state. 676 $a338.926 801 0$bFR-PaOEC 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a9910891685603321 996 $aPerspectives de la science, de la technologie et de l'industrie$94255627 997 $aUNINA
