Così vicini, così lontani. Militari e civili nel crisis management dell'Unione Europea

Abstract

The article describes how the changing nature of international challenges has led to the reconceptualization of security and to the blurring of borders not only between internalexternal security, but also among security sectors, instruments and actors. Critically examining how these changes are shaping EU discourses and policies on crisis management, as well as missions’ implementation, the author shows unresolved problems and potential risks for an effective management of international crises.
