| Title | Europeanization of Security and Defence Policy: The Case of Denmark |
| Summary | This paper looks at the process of europeanization in security and defence. The field has been generally omitted from the existing literature, yet its speed-light development quickly changes the international environment. The case of Denmark illustrates that the ESDP has significant impact over the member states of the EU. Even though the Nordic country is not a full participant in CFSP, europeanization processes in the security and defence are clearly discernible. The paper argues that this has happened by means of ideational exchange between the national and supranational level. Prevailing ideas about the EU’s role in security, defence cooperation, anti-terrorism and comprehensive security have been constructed against the strong background of overlapping understandings about the post Cold War security environment. The conceptual agreement between Denmark and the EU about the nature of the new threats and the means to face them has led to europeanization in security perceptions and policy actions after the end of the Cold War. |
