Abstract

ABSTRACTAs previous crises such as Libya and Iraq have shown, the transatlantic community is suffering from a deficient common security identity. Comparing the US, French, German, and British reactions to the Russian annexation of Crimea discloses whether the value-based foundations of the transatlantic security community are eroding. The securitisation model seems well-suited to complement the theory of security communities by offering analytical criteria for the comparison. Who securitised what, when, and how in early 2014? The analysis proposes securitisation as a promising research tool for foreign policy comparisons and reveals to what extent the transatlantic security community still exists.
