title = {The EU Security Sector Reform Agenda: Between Democratic Security Governance and Internal Security Interests},
year = {2014},
note = {The European Union has become deeply involved in international
security sector reform (SSR) and security assistance efforts. This
article examines the EU’s activities in the field and discusses to
what extent the EU has made good on the promises of its comprehensive
SSR agenda in its external relations. To do so, it outlines the EU’s
diverging strategic goals in the field, maps the institutional arenas
relevant to their implementation, and discusses three core challenges
to the EU’s activities: horizontal coordination across institutional
arenas; vertical disconnects between the EU’s strategic agenda and
their implementation in the field; and larger political challenges
that result from the coexistence of contradictory policy goals at the
strategic level.},
