“…Over time, the literature on the external dimension of EU counter-terrorism has grown. Interest in the external dimension of EU counter-terrorism has increased to the point where a special issue on the subject was published in 2012 in the European Security journal (Ferreira-Pereira and Oliveira Kaunert, 2012;Oliveira Martins and Ferreira-Pereira, 2012). This has highlighted not only the increasing interest in the external dimension of EU counter-terrorism, but also, more importantly, the growing scope and geographical range of the EU's activities.…”

“…These activities have included capacity-building. Some scholarly literature has recently focused on the EU police mission in Afghanistan (EUPOL Afghanistan) (Larive, 2012;Moore, 2014;Oliveira Martins and Ferreira-Pereira, 2012). This reflects an emphasis on Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) missions, but does not fully take into account other less visible activities and contributions from other parts of the EU.…”

What is security in the twenty-first century? Recently, issues such as crime, terrorism, energy security, population movements and migration, environmental and climate security, underdevelopment, health and pandemic diseases, as well as economic security have become important matters of European security. Furthermore, more traditional security challenges, such as military conflicts and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMDs), have evolved and changed character. In this context, an increasing body of scholarship has recognized the European Union (EU) as a security actor, which is well equipped to tackle these complex security challenges, due to the multi-dimensional or structural character of its policies.Based on a broad definition of security, this unprecedented series examines the role of Europe in international security and justice matters. Taking inspiration from the European Security Strategy (ESS), it identifies more traditional security threats such as WMDs, but also points to global warming and poverty as the possible cause of conflict. Moreover, the series promises to recognize the intrinsic links between security and justice from a multitude of disciplinary perspectives and provides a platform for research that focuses on the study of Europe as a whole, going beyond only the European Union.

“…Finally, as part of tackling terrorism from the outside-in, counterterrorism became an explicit element of several CSDP missions in Africa. Counterterrorism had been a small and rather indirect element of previous CSDP missions, such as in Bosnia, Kosovo, and Afghanistan (Martins & Ferreira-Pereira, 2012), but it became more prominent and explicit in the rationales, mandates, and practices of CSDP missions in sub-Saharan Africa.…”
