Over the last decade, the
European Union (EU) has shown a growing activism in dealing with both
regional and global security challenges. However, the EU’s architecture
for crisis management and its capabilities (civilian and military) do not
yet meet the needs dictated by current challenges and threats. This
publication offers an overview of the progress achieved by the EU – both
at the institutional and operational levels – through its Common
Security and Defence Policy, and identifies the critical elements and the
potential for improvement in the coming years. This study has been
conducted by the Istituto Affari Internazionali (IAI) for the project
Science for Peace promoted by the Fondazione Umberto Veronesi
and has been presented in the framework of Science for Peace
2nd
Annual World Conference, Milan, November 18-19, 2010.
