The course offers a comprehensive overview of internal security policies of the European Union. The area of Justice and Home Affairs has been one of the most dynamically developing fields of EU competencies. Even though this agenda has been legally part of the EU only since the Maastricht Treaty (1993), it has gradually expanded the role of the EU institutions and agencies to areas of immigration, asylum, protection of external borders, criminal justice, organized crime, radicalization, and terrorism under broad heading of Lisbon Treaty’s “Area of Freedom, Security and Justice” (2009). Even though, the EU Member States did not agree on a standard strategic document guiding integration and policy implementation in internal security after 2014, the migration crisis and a sequence of terrorist attacks in Europe in the following years brought the issues of home affairs on top of EU’s agenda.
