European Security Culture
Author: Monica Gariup
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1317139321
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
Grounded on tenets of cultural realism and social constructivism, Monica Gariup develops a theoretical framework to enhance our understanding of security culture at the European Union level. She employs tools from political theory, linguistic analysis and international relations theory to examine the implications of discourse and practice in European Security and Defense Policy (ESDP). Innovative in scope, the volume analyzes whether elaborating a structurationist solution and proposing a discursive syntax of security makes it possible to identify and compare different types of security actors. Providing a comprehensive and objective analysis on the links and implications between the discourse and actual policy of the ESDP, this is essential reading for scholars and researchers in European politics, international relations, security and cultural studies.

Strategic Cultures in Europe
Author: Heiko Biehl
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3658011688
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
European countries work together in crisis management, conflict prevention and many other aspects of security and defence policy. Closer cooperation in this policy arena seems to be the only viable way forward to address contemporary security challenges. Yet, despite the repeated interaction, fundamental assumptions about security and defence remain remarkably distinct across European nations. This book offers a comparative analysis of the security and defence policies of all 27 EU member states and Turkey, drawing on the concept of ‘strategic culture’, in order to examine the chances and obstacles for closer security and defence cooperation across the continent. Along the lines of a consistent analytical framework, international experts provide case studies of the current security and defence policies in Europe as well as their historical and cultural roots.

European Military Culture and Security Governance
Author: Tamir Libel
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317908295
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
This book offers the first systematic, comparative analysis of military education and training in Europe within the context of the post-Cold War security environment. Based on an analysis of military education institutions in the UK, Germany, Finland, Romania and the Baltic States, this book demonstrates that the convergence of European military cultures since the end of the Cold War is linked to changes in military education. The process of convergence originates, at least in part, from the full or partial adoption of a new concept by post-commissioning professional military education institutions: the National Defence University. Officers are now educated alongside civilians and public servants, wherein they enjoy a socialization experience that is markedly different from that of previous generations of European officers, and is increasingly similar across national borders. In addition, this book argues that with the control over the curricula and graduation criteria increasingly set by civilian higher education authorities, the European armed forces, while continuing to exist, and hold significant (although declining) capabilities, stand to lose their status as a profession in the traditional sense. This book will be of much interest to students of military, European security policy, European politics, and IR in general.

National Security Cultures
Author: Emil J. Kirchner
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136963588
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 401
Book Description
This edited collection examines changes in national security culture in the wake of international events that have threatened regional or global order, and analyses the effects of these divergent responses on international security. Tracing the links between national security cultures and preferred forms of security governance the work provides a systematic account of perceived security threats and the preferred methods of response with individual chapters on Canada, China, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Russia, UK and USA. Each chapter is written to a common template exploring the role of national security cultures in shaping national responses to the four domains of security governance: prevention, assurance, protection and compellence. The volume provides an analytically coherent framework evaluating whether cooperation in security governance is likely to increase among major states, and if so, the extent to which this will follow either regional or global arrangements. By combining a theoretical framework with strong comparative case studies this volume contributes to the ongoing reconceptualization of security and definition of threat and provides a basis for reaching tentative conclusions about the prospects for global and regional security governance in the early 21st century. This makes it ideal reading for all students and policymakers with an interest in global security and comparative foreign and security policy.

Small States and Security in Europe
Author: Tomáš Weiss
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000484149
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
This book studies how domestic contestation influences the security policy of small states within the European Union (EU) and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). A multinational group of expert contributors consider how domestic contestation is translated into small states’ foreign policies, how membership of international organisations alters attitudes to security policy in small states and how patterns of small states’ behaviour across domestic traditions, security cultures and geographical location can be identified. Anchored in new institutionalism, the book explores the influence of international organisations on security policies and the tensions created by connecting four strands of literature, on Europeanisation, on the impact of and on institutions, on the way foreign and security policy is made, and the security/strategic culture of small states. It will be of interest to all scholars and students of international relations, security studies, EU studies, area studies and politics.

European Security Culture

Languages : en
Pages : 26
Book Description
Ondanks de huidige turbulentie in het Europese integratieproces, worden er door de EU belangrijke stappen genomen op het gebied van veiligheidspolitiek en in de naam van terrorismebestrijding. Een centraal element in de Europese 'veiligheidscultuur' die hier ontstaat, is de nadruk op voorzorg en het aanpakken van dreiging in een zo vroeg mogelijk stadium. Het verbindend element tussen de EU Counterterrrorism Strategy, het nieuwe plan voor een Europees Terrorism Financing Tracking Programme, en de Atalanta-missie tegen piraterij is de nadruk op preventie en het anticiperen op mogelijke toekomstige dreiging. Dergelijke programma's hebben echter implicaties voor transparantie en burgerrechten die op gespannen voet staan met de Europese normatieve ambities.

European Security and Strategic Culture
Author: Bastian Giegerich
Publisher: Nomos Verlagsgesellschaft Mbh & Company
ISBN: 9783832923716
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
This book analyzes the extent to which national strategic cultures of EU member states are compatible both with one another and the emerging multinational consensus expressed in the EU's European Security and Defence Policy (ESDP). The juxtaposition of ESDP and national strategic culture generates a map of adaptation pressures faced by EU member governments. Case studies of Austria, France, Germany, and the UK are matched with exploratory analysis of Denmark, Ireland, Spain, and Sweden. National strategic cultures define the realm of what is possible regarding national adaptation to international change in defense policy. The EU level serves as an intermediary level between the domestic and the international arenas.
