'A much-needed critical analysis of the evolution of the EU's counter-terrorism role. The author helps the reader to understand the reasons for the fragmentation and sectorialisation which have been obstacles to the effectiveness of the counter-terrorism policies of the Union in tackling transnational terrorism.' - Paul Wilkinson, University of St Andrews
'This book provides a unique insight into the European Union’s multi-dimensional response to the post-9/11 terrorist challenges: It brings out with rare lucidity the specific institutional and consistency challenges of the Union in a field still dominated by Member States’ national security policies.' Prof. Dr. Dr. Jörg Monar, Director of Political and Administrative Studies, College of Europe
