The EUs Shifting Borders
The EUs internal borders have become mostly invisible. Today, external borders are at the centre of controversy about an alleged fortress Europe. Using different theoretical and methodological perspectives this book examines the challenges facing the EUs external borders, including Neighbourhood Policy, migration issues and the diffusion of norms and values to other countries.
Divided into two parts, the book first presents different theoretical approaches and empirical studies of the EUs external borders, mobility and security issues. It is an invaluable guide to border research within a framework of European Integration and Globalization Studies. The second part of this volume focuses on the analyses of the EUs Neighbourhood Policy, the approach to Eastern Europe and EU energy policy. Expert contributors collaborate to explore debates about migration, the EU as a normative, civil power, energy security and the securitization of borders. Highly relevant and insightful, the text provides a timely assessment of EU borders in an increasingly globalized and integrated European neighbourhood.
The EUs Shifting Borders will be of interest to students and scholars of European Union Politics and International Relations.
