Title EU Cybersecurity Strategy: Securitization of Cyberspace Through a Rhetorical Lens
Summary The advancement of information technologies has led to dissemination of security aspects needed to be addressed correspondingly. EU strives to build-up its cyber identity, a security realm which has become a profound expression of national interests, thus posing challenge to these supranational aspirations. Impediments of easier path to securitize cyberspace stand in a way, but can they be overcome?
This research adds to the literature focusing on EU actors dealing with cybersecurity, whether that be imposing vehement measures or influencing decision-makers in the securitization process. Taken initiatives embodied in political rhetoric are taken as an evaluation of creating (in)efficient cybersecurity strategy.
