الفاعلية الأمنية الإقليمية للاتحاد الأوروبي نحو إطار نظري جديد

Abstract EN

This article examines the European Union’s regional security actorness.

It mainly argues that, the EU has become a security actor as a significant adjustment has been concluded to its perception of threats, security and regional security policies.

Based on that, we will clarify this argument as follow.

First,we will survey the livelier academic debate about EU’s international and security actorness.

Second, we will figure out how the EU reconceptualized its perception of threat and security policies in order to legitimize a more security roles in the neighboring regions.

Finally, we clarify the security implications of ‘EU membership policy’, and it became the EU's main project to realize the security regionalization of the Balkans.
