Description:
This book looks at the post-9/11 landscape and asks whether, when it comes to the measures taken to combat terrorism following these attacks, the EU has lived up to the promise made in its founding treaties. In pursuing this goal, the book presents the views of leading experts casting a critical eye over the EU's performance, recognising achievements, but also being suitably critical when realities did not match the EU's rhetoric. In doing this, the book makes a significant contribution not only to the scholarly investigation of European Union policies, but also to the study of counter-terrorism in general. This book was published as a special issue of Intelligence and National Security.
