Opis

This book examines the vision and strategy of the EU’s Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (AFSJ), or the lack thereof. This policy area has been significantly in the news, notably due to the terrorist attacks in 2015 in Paris and 2016 in Brussels, and the ongoing refugee crisis in the Mediterranean region. This makes it even more paradoxical that, at this time, the EU finds itself, for the first time ever, devoid of any significant, over-arching strategy.
