• EU Crisis Management After Lisbon, by N.Pirozzi

The Lisbon Treaty has introduced a number of innovations in the field of the EU's crisis management which have the potential to reinvigorate the Union's security actorness, both as a norm setter (model by being) and an operational crisis manager (model by doing). This paper investigates the prospects for the EU to become a credible security actor in the 21st century in connection with its capacity to adapt the conceptual framework of its crisis management system to the current security scenario and impl ement effective action on the ground. In particular, this analysis will take into consideration three main developments in the global security environment: (1) the rise of new security-political challenges; (2) the evolution of the concept of security; and (3) the proliferation of non-state actors in the field of security.
