Abstract

One of the most important discussions in the modern-day European Union concerns the lack of effectiveness of common foreign and security policy. As the Union moves towards integration, creating such a policy has become one of its most pressing concerns. I shall consider this question in detail in this paper by considering the following question: "why has common foreign and security policy been so much more difficult to organise than economic cooperation?" To answer to this question, it is important to carry out a comparative political analysis of the foreign and security area on the one hand, and the economic area on the other.
However, "foreign and security policy" and "economic cooperation" must first be discussed in more detail.
The main questions are: - Have foreign and security policy and policy regarding economic cooperation been a priority for the European Union? has there been consensus among different European states about foreign and security policy and economic cooperation? - has there been any alteration of foreign security policy and economic cooperation policy when applied to non-European states or foreign organizations? - has foreign and security policy and economic cooperation policy been directed by particular political figures? - Have foreign and security policy and economic cooperation policy been well conducted?
