Geo-economic and geopolitical developments in EU-asia security relations
EU Security Alignments with the Asia-Pacific
Given extensive trade ties, Asia is critical not only for the prosperity of the European continent, but also for the secure flow of goods and services. Unsurprisingly, the EU has repeatedly stated that the EU's essential interests are closely tied up with developments in Asia, and with the foreign and security policies of the region's main players. But how much of this rhetoric has been translated into actual security alignments and cooperation b…
New horizons in EU–Japan security cooperation
China and the EU as Global Actors
This paper examines the level of cooperation which China and the EU undertake on global issues, especially with regard to the future roles of international organizations such as the UN, the IMF, the World Bank, the G20, the form and practice of multilateralism, the prospects and direction of a multipolar/core world, and whether the two tend to be partners rather than competitors on issues of climate change and energy policy. It applies the approa…
Supranational Citizenship
This book offers a conception of citizenship that is independent of any specific form of political organisation, while being compatible with multiple levels of political institutionalisation. Its de-contextualised account of citizenship differs from both cosmopolitan and nation-statist accounts. Using that conception, the book addresses topical and normative debates in one particular transnational political association: the European Union. Bringi…
The Post-westphalian State, National Security Cultures, and Global Security Governance
Better a good neighbor than a distant friend
Under what conditions do regional security organizations (RSOs) take up a broader agenda or scope in security governance? Further, does broader scope matter for regional security? These questions are addressed using a quantitative comparative analysis of 25 RSOs over the period 1990–2009. Similarity among members in their capacities and political systems are identified as two central conditions for increased scope. In contrast, hegemony is not a …
Understanding and Assessing the Maastricht Treaty
This article introduces the collection of articles of the special issue and provides a discussion of the common themes linking these contributions. The article stresses the continuing significance of the Maastricht Treaty and illustrates the various ways in which the key reforms of the early 1990s still matter today. This includes not only the bearing that the decisions at the time of the Maastricht Treaty have had on the current crisis of the Eu…
European Energy Security Co‐operation
Through an application of Regional Security Complex Theory and empirical examination, this article explores the pros and cons of regional and inter‐regional energy co‐operation. In spite of present unilateral and bilateral manoeuvres on the part of EU Member States to the contrary, a common energy security policy appears feasible over the next five to ten years. However, EU–Russian co‐operation in the energy sector is not likely to improve consid…
Germany at 60
To say that Germany’s political and socio-economic development since 1945 has been successful is a statement of the obvious. Whilst defining ‘success’ can, to use the old adage, frequently be like trying to nail a blancmange to a wall, there can be little doubt that the term is apt in this case. The German social market economy remains, despite the buffeting that the world economy has taken during the recent global recession, remarkably resilient…

Sharing the Burden of Collective Security in the European Union
This article compares European Union (EU) burden-sharing in security governance distinguishing between assurance, prevention, protection, and compellence policies. We employ joint-product models and examine the variation in the level of publicness, the asymmetry of the distribution of costs and benefits, and aggregation technologies in each policy domain. Joint-product models predict equal burden-sharing for protection and assurance because of th…
The Challenge of European Union Security Governance
The central aim of this article is to explore whether or not the EU is an effective security actor. To assess the strengths and weaknesses of the EU, three security functions (conflict prevention, peace‐enforcement/peace‐keeping and peace‐building) and three core components of governance (co‐ordination, management and regulation) are applied. Security governance is seen as a helpful framework for studying the interactions between a diverse number…
Will form lead to function? Institutional enlargement and the creation of a European security and defence identity
Economic security and the problem of cooperation in post-Cold War Europe
The end of the Cold War and the transformation of the Yalta security system generated a debate about the survivability of the postwar institutions of security, particularly NATO. This debate is too narrow in its focus. We argue that security has two mutual constitutive elements, the political-military and the economic. The interdependence of these two elements of the future security architecture raises a set of interrelated questions addressed in…
The security architectures and institutional futures of post-1989 Europe
In this article, we identify the points of convergence, divergence and parallelism in the various security architectures on offer by the major powers; seek to place those architectures along the continuum of security system outcomes; and explore the issue of institutional choice in the contemporary European security order. We also address a set of questions derived from the institutional requirements of the European security order. Does the emerg…

The Federal Republic of Germany and Nato
The future Germany and the future of Nato
The events of 1989 have raised questions about NATO's future and purpose. Two different views are held by Germany and the USA. The Germans seek the political and economic unification of the EC, the construction of a European pillar within a demilitarised NATO, and a pan‐European collective security system. In contrast, the Americans seek to preserve NATO as a military alliance responsible for western European security under American leadership an…
Genscher and what lies behind ‘Genscherism
This article analyses the factors which have contributed to West Germany's decision to oppose the modernisation of short‐range nuclear missilesin 1989 and focuses on the likely impact Hans‐Dietrich Genscher had on this decision. By considering both West German domestic conditions (value changes, mass perceptions of détente, and party‐political consensus on Ostpolitik) and external factors (changing superpower relations, reforms in Eastern Europe,…
