European Security in Transition [EPUB ebook] 

Since the end of World War II, security and defence have played a major role in European politics. With the European Union“s increasing role on the global stage and with today“s war on terrorism, security and defence issues have dramatically gained weight and importance in international politics. This compelling volume provides an interdisciplinary look at the development and current status of the European security system as well as selected key issues on today“s security agenda. As such, it provides an excellent resource for those wishing to make sense of the complexities of defence and security issues in the European Union at a time of global change.
