Key Speakers:
Sven Biscop, Royal Belgian Institute for International Affairs; Anton Oleinik, Memorial University, Newfoundland; Javier Garcia Marin, University of Granada; Sergey Markedonov, Russian Institute for Political and Military Affairs, Stefan Meister, German Council on Foreign Relations; Marian Zulean, University of Bucharest.
Rationale
National security policy, and more specifically the nationalising of security policy, has been competing with an increasing recognition that many security problems are transnational in nature and can only be tackled in cooperative efforts. Yet, while the EU has given institutional expression to such cooperative efforts, its member states, especially since 9/11 and similar attacks in the UK and Spain for example, have to some extent begun to emphasise more strongly the need for a national security policy/strategy/doctrine.
Against the background of these developments, we invite proposals for papers that will conduct a thorough analysis of EU security strategy and policy and/or of that of its member states. We specifically seek single or comparative case studies that examine the process of formulating security strategies and their implementation, the interaction between respective processes at national and EU levels, and the results of security policy implementation in discreet cases. Proposals for conceptual papers in any of these areas are also welcome.
