Résumé :
ENGLISH :
Anti-drugs policies of the European Union is the first book to trace the evolution of enforcement-based anti-drugs policies at European Union level from the late 1960s to the present. Policy development is considered in the contexts of European integration and the broad harmonization of international policies against drug trafficking. The underlying logic and rationale of the policy process is examined in relation to its principal actors and decision-making procedures, including an assessment of the influence of drug issues on the emergence of wide-ranging EU security institutions such as the European police agency Europol. The influence of transnational networks of expertise on policy development is also assessed, leading to an exploration of questions about the changing nature of state power and state sovereignty under globalization. The practices of contemporary European governance are also critically examined and concerns are raised about secretive and anti-democratic features of intergovernmental EU decision-making.
