This book offers a theoretically informed analysis of how
coherently the European Union fights terrorism in the post-9/11
era. Few studies have looked at how the European Union has
transformed into a relevant international anti-terrorist actor.
Yet, as a reaction to the terrorist attacks in New York, Madrid and
London, the European Union has become increasingly active in the
field of counter-terrorism. It has acted to coordinate member
states' policies, to harmonise national legislation, and even to
support operational work conducted by national authorities. The
EU's reaction to the threat of transnational terrorism has been
complex and multidimensional, ranging from the exchange of
information between police and intelligence agencies to judicial
cooperation, and from infrastructure protection to the fight
against terrorist recruitment and financing. This book offers a
comprehensive empirical account of the polity, policy and politics
of EU counter-terrorism, based on an analysis of academic
literature, official documents, and about fifty interviews with
policy-makers, experts and practitioners carried out at EU
institutions (i.e. Commission, Council, Eurojust, Europol),
Permanent Representations of the EU Member States and national
capitals. This book will be of much interest to students of
counter-terrorism, EU politics, security studies and IR in general.
