This book analyzes the approach of the European Union (EU) to
crisis management after the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty
and assesses its suitability for addressing current and future
security threats. It primarily provides a framework of analysis
with which to interpret current EU crisis management as both a
product of the innovations of the Lisbon Treaty and its interaction
with the international security environment. It also offers a
comprehensive and in-depth examination of the post-Lisbon crisis
management system in terms of concepts, structures, process and
capabilities. A reality check of this system is conducted by
analysing a number of case studies in which the EU recently carried
out a crisis management role: the civilian missions EUCAP Sahel
Niger, EUCAP Nestor and EUAVSEC South Sudan, and the military
operation EUTM Mali. This analysis sheds light on the modalities
selected by the EU for intervening in crisis situations, the impact
that its interventions have produced and the lessons that the EU
has learnt from these experiences.The author points out the
structural strengths and weaknesses in the EU's approach to and
implementation of crisis management, and shows how they impact on
the EU's ability to cope with future crises. This book fills a gap
in the existing literature and at the same time provides
decision-makers with policy recommendations for improving the EU's
performance in this field.
