Book Synopsis The European Union and Conflict Prevention by : Emma J. Stewart
Download or read book The European Union and Conflict Prevention written by Emma J. Stewart and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2006 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book examines the evolution of EU conflict prevention as an internal EU process and as an area of external cooperation with the UN, OSCE and NATO. Conflict prevention has emerged as a prominent EU policy in the post-Cold War era. Yet, how suited is the organisation to practice conflict prevention, and what does the record of cooperation with other key European organisations tell us about the EU's external priorities? The book critically analyses the EU's policy and outcomes to date, concluding that conflict prevention is underdeveloped by the EU, and is in danger of being marginalised in favour of shorter-term crisis management. Moreover, EU external cooperation reinforces this: the priority is cooperation in crisis management with the UN and NATO, rather than longer-term cooperation with the OSCE.

This book was released on 2010-10-04 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume looks at the practical implications of mainstreaming human security. It focuses on the potential, problems and policies of human security in crisis management in general, and on crisis management operations of the European Union and the United Nations in particular. Topics addressed by the contributors include human rights in post-conflict situations, democratizing' crisis management, restorative responses to human rights violations by peacemakers, and human security in Serbia and Africa. Although many of the contributions to the book focus on mainstreaming human security in the EU context, the chapters discuss global issues and draw conclusions which are of relevance all over the world.

Book Synopsis Old Europe, New Security by : Mary Troy Johnson
Download or read book Old Europe, New Security written by Mary Troy Johnson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of the US criticisms of Western European reluctance to engage in the 2004 war in Iraq stem from a perception that these governments are 'weak on defence' or unwilling to 'pull their own weight' in the international system. Secretary Rumsfeld pejoratively designated traditional Atlantic Alliance allies as 'Old Europe', to distinguish them from the freshly minted, cooperative states of 'New Europe'. In doing so, Rumsfeld accused 'Old Europe' of yet again relying on the United States to solve shared security problems. This volume critically evaluates the validity of this view of Western European choices and policies. Rather than a primary reliance on military force as first line defence, it proposes that Western European governments are expanding the set of tools they have to apply to the post-Cold War array of security and defence problems. The volume examines the emergent European security approach from multiple perspectives, in multiple institutions and identities, and in different geographic contexts.
Book Synopsis EU--effective in a Crisis? by : Select Committee On The European Union
Download or read book EU--effective in a Crisis? written by Select Committee On The European Union and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Security and Defence Policy (ESDP) includes non-military aspects designed to allow the EU to provide assistance to countries in crisis. These civilian crisis management capabilities include policing and civil administration. The Committee's report finds that the preparations for the civilian ESDP police mission in Bosnia (EUPM) were highly successful. It considers that the EU's civilian role in crises is a valuable one, and notes surprise at the lack of interest shown thus far by the media and by individual Member States in this subject. Main conclusions reached are that the EU should: clarify the scope and goals of civilian ESDP; work to fill the gaps in the existing crisis management provision and avoid duplicating the work of other organisations; streamline the chain of command and control; and set up workable, long-term financing arrangements.
Book Synopsis Crisis Management in the European Union by : Stefan Olsson
Download or read book Crisis Management in the European Union written by Stefan Olsson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-07-06 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In less than a decade, Europe has witnessed a series of large-scale natural disasters and two major terrorist attacks. Growing concern about the trans-national effects of these incidents has caused the EU Member States to seek more multilateral cooperation. As a result, a system of common arrangements for handling large-scale emergencies or disasters has emerged, which, due to its quick and ad-hoc development, may seem almost impenetrable to newcomers to the field. This book seeks to provide a much-needed overview of disaster and crisis management systems in the EU. It provides a basic understanding of how EU policy has evolved, the EU’s mandate, and above all, a concise and hands-on description of the most central crisis management arrangements. Written by some of Europe’s main experts and consultants in the field, this book represents a unique and comprehensive source of information for everyone involved or interested in the European Union crisis management system. "This book will quickly become an indispensable resource for two groups: Practitioners will enjoy its accessible and comprehensive style. Academics curious about this emerging field will turn to it for an introductory overview. As someone who closely studies this field, I find the book engaging, detailed, and accurate, and I read every line with great interest. The authors are to be commended for the quality of research that went into this work." Mark Rhinard, Senior Research Fellow at the Swedish Institute of International Affairs (UI)
Book Synopsis The Professional Identity of the Human Rights Field Officer by : George Ulrich
Download or read book The Professional Identity of the Human Rights Field Officer written by George Ulrich and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-24 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The important and groundbreaking volume, The Professional Identity of the Human Rights Field Officer, completes the study of human rights field work begun in the earlier The Human Rights Field Operation: Law Theory and Practice (2007: Ashgate). Building on the critique of the field’s historical development and current situation featured in the earlier volume, O’Flaherty, Ulrich and their fellow contributors focus on the specific responsibilities of the individual human rights officer, and concentrate on vital issues of professionalism beyond the confines of any specific organization. Their expansion of the analysis in the case studies section of the first volume has resulted in an up to date global edition of significant academic interest to anyone within the field of human rights law.

Book Synopsis The SAGE Handbook of European Foreign Policy by : Knud Erik Jorgensen
Download or read book The SAGE Handbook of European Foreign Policy written by Knud Erik Jorgensen and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2015-04-30 with total page 1081 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last two decades the study of European foreign policy has experienced remarkable growth, presumably reflecting a more significant international role of the European Union. The Union has significantly expanded its policy portfolio and though empty symbolic politics still exists, the Union’s international relations have become more substantial and its foreign policy more focused. European foreign policy has become a dynamic policy area, being adapted to changing challenges and environments, such as the Arab Spring, new emerging economies/powers; the crisis of multilateralism and much more. The SAGE Handbook of European Foreign Policy, Two-Volume set, is a major reference work for Foreign Policy Programmes around the world. The Handbook is designed to be accessible to graduate and postgraduate students in a wide variety of disciplines across the humanities and social sciences. Both volumes are structured to address areas of critical concern to scholars at the cutting edge of all major dimensions of foreign policy. The volumes are composed of original chapters written specifically to the following themes: · Research traditions and historical experience · Theoretical perspectives · EU actors · State actors · Societal actors · The politics of European foreign policy · Bilateral relations · Relations with multilateral institutions · Individual policies · Transnational challenges The Handbook will be an essential reference for both advanced students and scholars.
Download or read book EU Security and Defence written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fifth volume of Core documents lists the European Union's decisions and actions in the field of security and defence taken during 2004. Texts concerning ESDP are collected in the first part of this volume: they include in particular the establishment of the European Defence Agency, the decisions on battle groups and the European gendarmerie, the launch of the EUJUST operations in Georgia and Althea in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the 2010 Headline Goal and the substantial development of the civilian aspect of crisis management. However, the first part also deals at length with the fight against terrorism, the Union b2ss relations with Iran, the Middle East, Iraq and Africa, and the various Commission initiatives relating to financing of research and restructuring of the arms market. The second part of this work is devoted solely to the Constitutional Treaty; it includes all of the sections relevant to defence, but also to foreign and security policy in the broader sense. As for the title of the work itself, it reflects the joint decision to hold all future European Council meetings in Brussels; the capitals of the countries holding the presidency are therefore no longer mentioned on the cover of this collection.
Book Synopsis The EU's Common Security and Defence Policy by : Giovanni Faleg
Download or read book The EU's Common Security and Defence Policy written by Giovanni Faleg and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book accounts for transformations in the EU’s Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP)during fifteen years of operations (2001-2016), and argues that the EU evolved into a softer and more civilian security provider, rather than a military one. This learning process was driven by transnational communities of experts and practitioners, which acted as engines of change. Giovanni Faleg analyses two innovative concepts introduced in the EU security discourse since the late 1990s: security sector reform (SSR) and civilian crisis management (CCM). Both stem from a new understanding of security, involving the development of non-military approaches and a comprehensive approach to crisis management. However, the implementation of the two policy frameworks by the EU led to very different outcomes. The book explains this variation by exploring the pathways by which ideas turn into policies, and by comparing the transformational power of epistemic communities and communities of practice. “/p>
