Abstract
The book gives an interdisciplinary perspective on the current challenges faced by EU policy-makers in framing and implementing a coherent European industrial policy. It analyses the historical, constitutional and structural long-term cause of the absence of a strong industrial policy at the EU level, the existing tensions between the Member States and the EU institutions regarding industrial and competition policies and the conditions for an integrated EU industrial policy to emerge. It further explains how the EU and its Member States may keep their position in global value chains while other major partners such as the US and China are pursuing strategic trade and industrial policies to maintain or to increase their dominant position. The book contains historical, legal and economic contributions both on the development of EU industrial policy tools and on the evolution of industrial strategic sectors. In addition, it develops comparative analyses, in order to identify from the experiences of other large economies the US, Japan, Korea, China elements that could be of relevance to the EU in terms of vertical and horizontal industrial policy. It concludes by evidencing scenarios as regards the evolution of the global position of the EU in the near future.
