Moving beyond the narrow goals and targets of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and the top-down manner in which they were defined, the 2030 Agenda promises to address many of their shortcomings.

Adelphi Series. — 2010. — 50: 414-415, 17-40. The European Union is not a state: this negative categorisation, which must be the essential starting point of any analysis of EU foreign and security policy, applies most vividly to relations with the major powers, whether these are of a unitary or, as is more frequently the case, a federal nature. Whereas territorial, demographic...
