The EU-US Security and Justice Agenda in Action The EU-US security and justice agenda in action in agenda justice and security EU-US The Over the last ten years, several EU-US agreements have been concluded on issues like mutual legal assistance, personal data exchanges or transfers of financial data. The trend towards increasing transatlantic integration in the security domain has seen the emergence of new policy instruments which have often been criticised for their lack of transparency and accountability. THE EU-US SECURITY AND This has given rise to a serious debate concerning data protection and civil liberties. JusTICE AGENDA IN ACTION The transatlantic debate that has accompanied the development of homeland security policies in the post 9/11 context is therefore focused on the two poles of liberty and security, and how to achieve a balance between them. The tenth Edited by Patryk Pawlak anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks in New York and Washington D.C. offers a good opportunity to re-examine this dichotomy. Chaillot Papers | December 2011 This Chaillot Paper, edited by Patryk Pawlak and with a preface by Gilles de Edited by Patryk Pawlak Pawlak by Patryk Edited Kerchove, examines transatlantic security cooperation in a broader context with a preface by Gilles de Kerchove and highlights new policy avenues worth exploring. The contributions in part one of the volume focus on the extent of bilateral EU-US cooperation at various levels, while part two provides an insight into how the transatlantic security agenda is implemented beyond the Euro-Atlantic territory.

  • Transition in Afghanistan 2012
    TRANSITION IN AFGHANISTAN 2011-2014 Five Parliamentary Studies NATO Parliamentary Assembly Founded in 1955, the NATO Parliamentary Assembly (NATO PA) serves as the consultative inter-parliamentary organisation for the North Atlantic Alliance. Bringing together members of parliaments throughout the Atlantic Alliance, the NATO PA provides an essential link between NATO and the parliaments of its member nations, helping to build parliamentary and public consensus in support of Alliance policies. At the same time, it facilitates parliamentary awareness and understanding of key security issues and contributes to a greater transparency of NATO policies. Crucially, it helps maintain and strengthen the transatlantic relationship, which underpins the Atlantic Alliance. Since the end of the Cold War the Assembly has assumed a new role by integrating into its work parliamentarians from those countries in Central and Eastern Europe and beyond who seek a closer association with NATO. This integration has provided both political and practical assistance and has contributed to the strengthening of parliamentary democracy throughout the Euro-Atlantic region, thereby complementing and reinforcing NATO’s own programme of partnership and co-operation. The headquarters of the Assembly’s 30-strong International Secretariat staff members is located in central Brussels. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Declaration 392 on Supporting Transition in Afghanistan presented by Hugh Bayley 7 Governance Challenges in Afghanistan: An Update by Vitalino Canas 13 Transition in Afghanistan: Assessing the Security Effort by Sven Mikser Finding Workable Solutions in Afghanistan: the Work of the International Community in Building a Functioning Economy and Society by Jeppe Kofod 95 Afghanistan – The Regional Context by John Dyrby Paulsen 139 Countering the Afghan Insurgency: Low-Tech Threats, High-Tech Solutions by Sen.

EU-GRASP aims to contribute to the analysis and articulation of the current and future role of the EU as a global actor in multilateral security governance, in a context of challenged multilateralism, where the EU aims at “effective multilateralism”. This project therefore examines the notion and practice of multilateralism in order to provide the required theoretical background for assessing the linkages between the EU’s current security activities with multi-polarism, international law, regional integration processes and the United Nations system. Partners EU-GRASP is coordinated by the United Nations University – Comparative regional Integration Studies (UNU- CRIS). The other partners of EU-GRASP are based worldwide and include: University of Warwick (UK), University of Gothenburg (Sweden), Florence Forum on the Problems of Peace and War (Italy), KULeuven (Belgium), Centre for International Governance Innovation (Canada), University of Peking (China), Institute for Security Studies (South Africa) and Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (Israel).

  • The EU-India Partnership: Time to Go Strategic? Institute for Security Studies Security for Institute European Union
    The EU-India partnership: time to go strategic? go to time The partnership: EU-India European Union Institute for Security Studies How can India and the EU expand their relationship from its current economic dimension Indian Council of to a broader, security-based dimension? Why is this not happening in spite of expressed World Affairs willingness and the clear reciprocal benefits that would ensue? Is there a lack of frank dialogue on sensitive areas, or is there a more general lack of mutual understanding? The various Indian and European contributors to this volume – the result of long-standing collaboration between the Indian Council of World Affairs (ICWA) and the European Union Institute for Security Studies (EUISS) – assess incipient progress and explore ways to advance India-EU relations in the bilateral and multilateral dimensions of the Strategic Partnership. Although it was launched in 2004, a consensus emerges that such a partnership cannot be called strategic as yet. Continuing discussion and analysis of pressing issues is thus necessary in order to facilitate a breakthrough. This book contains detailed proposals for widening the scope of cooperation to both traditional and non-traditional security issues, such as counter-terrorism, security sector reform in third countries and energy. It also explores the potential for India and the EU to reach consensus in international governance forums, with particular emphasis on economic governance, as well as prospects for effective inter- regional cooperation on the main global security

    The Brookings—SAIS Project on Internal Displacement Collection of Global Course Syllabi Relating to Internally Displaced Persons by Gimena Sánchez-Garzoli September 2004 Collection of Global Course Syllabi Relating to Internally Displaced Persons September 2004 Foreword The Brookings-SAIS Project on Internal Displacement expresses its appreciation to all of the experts from different parts of the world who have contributed their courses to this collection of global syl- labi on internal displacement. We are especially grateful to Michael Cernea of the World Bank for preparing an insightful commentary on teaching about displacement. Appreciation is due to Gimena Sánchez-Garzoli for researching and identifying courses that relate to internal displacement throughout the world and for compiling this collection. It should be noted that this collection does not include all courses that deal with the subject of internal displacement. Rather it is the first effort that brings together a broad sampling which highlights how instructors have inte- grated the subject matter into their curriculum. We hope that this collection will serve to stimulate further development of courses and trainings mate- rials on internal displacement. Such courses are vital to raising global awareness of the plight of the internally displaced worldwide and building the knowledge base necessary for finding durable solu- tions to their protection and assistance concerns.
