This book represents the first attempt to evaluate the first two
decades of the EU counterterrorism policy. It aims to assess the
collective securitization process in EU counterterrorism,
evaluating this as a process between a construction of security
threats and the development of supranational governance through
crisification. Compared to the lack of shared perception of the
terrorist threat and the virtual absence of counterterrorism
cooperation amongst European states in the 1970s and 1980s, the
existence of EU-wide debates, legislative instruments and practical
cooperation nowadays is particularly remarkable. The chapters in
this volume explore this change and seek to explain it by drawing
upon the concept of 'collective securitization'. The book posits
that EU counterterrorism needs to be analysed as a process driven
by collective securitization as part of an ongoing process of
crisification that leads to increased supranational governance. The
book is both extremely relevant and timely for readers outside the
area of research for several reasons. First of all, EU
counterterrorism is often argued to be at the forefront of the EU's
response to new security threats. The 'EU acquis' on the Area of
Freedom, Security and Justice (AFSJ) has grown significantly over
the last years. Consequently, it is crucial and very timely to
examine EU counterterrorism - exactly 20 years after the first
significant measures were adopted in the wake of 9/11. The chapters
in this book were originally published in the journal Global
Affairs.
