This book contributes to the understanding of the counter-terrorism
(CT) policy of the European Union (EU) by offering a set of
analyses focusing on its external dimension. Whilst calling for the
combination of internal and external policies as well as
cooperation with third countries and international institutions,
the external dimension of EUCT challenges previous assumptions on
the functioning of the EU and offers new testing ground for the
latest theoretical and methodological approaches. This volume
provides the first systematic assessment of the external dimension
of EUCT. It covers transatlantic counter-terrorism cooperation, the
interaction between EU institutions and policies, theoretical
debates on EU actorness in counter-terrorism and the role of
judicial institutions in international counter-terrorism.
Furthermore, it draws attention to the need for engaging in new
discussions over the post-Lisbon Treaty Common Foreign and Security
Policy (CFSP), the international fight against terrorism, and the
way international actors cooperate and compete on the security
arena. It will be of interest for both academics and practitioners
working on EU foreign policy, transatlantic relations and
international counter-terrorism. It will also be of interest for
students and journalists specialized on European and international
affairs. This book was published as a special issue of European
Security.
In the context of the debate on the future of Europe, this book
makes the case for a new approach to structural transformation,
growth and cohesion in the EU. It explores both the opportunities
and challenges from globalisation and technological change, the
widening differences in productivity between leading and lagging
regions, and the need for a new policy framework capable of
delivering inclusive growth. The Regional Studies Association's
Policy Impact Books form a series of punchy, policy facing books
addressing issues of contemporary concern. There is a consistent
focus on the impact of policy research both in terms of its reach
to policy, academic and practitioner communities and also in its
significance, to show how evidence can inform policy change within
regional and urban studies.
This interdisciplinary collection explores four distinct
perspectives about the mask, as object of use for protection,
identity, and disguise. In part I, contributors address human
identities within collective social performance, with chapters on
performativity and the far right and masked identities in political
resistance and communication. Part II focuses on the mask as a
signifying object with strong representational challenges,
exploring representations in festivals, literature, and film. Part
III investigates the ambiguous use of the mask as a protective and
concealing element, delving into visual culture and digital social
media contexts. Finally, Part VI draws on the work of Levinas and
Deleuze to investigate a philosophical view of the mask that
addresses memory and ethics within intersubjective relationships.
Questioning the contemporary world, using communication, sociology,
visual culture, and philosophical theory, the volume provides a
pedagogical and formative perspective on the mask.
