The European Union in the Horn of Africa: Operationalizing the Human Security Strategy
Abstract
The European Union (EU) has embarked on an ambitious plan to establish itself as an influential, global power in the post Cold War era. Its motivation for this new role comes from many sources: freedom from the threat of the Warsaw Pact's invasion; a desire to assert its policies to protect its diplomatic, economic and security interests; and the recognition that it has a responsibility to enhance the security of (and development in) other regions of the world. Its commitment to global security, articulated in the 2004 Barcelona Report on Europe's Security Capabilities, describes how Europe's internal security is bolstered by improving the living conditions of individuals beyond its borders.
