Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject Politics -
International Politics - Topic: European Union, grade: 1,5,
Diplomatic Academy of Vienna - School of International Studies,
course: Intensive Seminar "The EU as a Global Actor," 47 entries in
the bibliography, language: English, abstract: European competences
do not exist and develop for the sake of the European Union; the
European Union exists and develops in spite of the states, as a
solution of their failures, as they are forced to accept that the
Union level can offer better solutions in a particular field than
the national level. Cooperation in Police and Criminal Law Matters,
the 3rd pillar of the Union, is still subject to intergovernmental
cooperation among the Member States. The terrorist attacks in the
USA and in Spain had undoubtedly a strong impact on this area,
leading to a visible intensification of inter-state cooperation.
This consequence is only natural, since terrorism is a crime,
therefore a matter for police and judicial cooperation in criminal
matters; terrorism is a global issue, affecting multiple states and
therefore its combating needs the cooperation among states. Unlike
on the international stage, in European Union's case more than
intensified cooperation could be possible, by way of transferring
3rd pillar matters to the supranational level of the 1st pillar.
This paper is putting forward an assessment on the likelihood of
this process taking place, within the following structure: a brief
overview of the way anti-terrorism measures affected the 3rd
pillar, followed by an assessment of intergovernmental cooperation
and communitisation as likely and recommendable for the cooperation
in police and criminal matters. Finally, the "case-study" of the
Framework Decision regarding the definition of terrorist offences
will serve as exemplification of the arguments brought in the
previous chapter.
