This compelling book critically examines how the EU has expanded its counter-terrorism remit to include aviation security in the twenty-first century. Briony Callander, Christian Kaunert and Sarah Léonard analyse the EU’s increasing involvement in aviation security following the 9/11 attacks.Callander, Kaunert and Léonard explore post-9/11 regulation and control of the formerly inter-governmental area of aviation security by supranational institutions with no prior involvement in the sector. They illustrate the highly technical and globally interlinked nature of the field, highlighting how this has resulted in EU policies affecting areas beyond the borders of EU member states. The book provides a comprehensive definition of aviation security, tracing its evolution before and since 9/11 and presenting cutting-edge research on how EU engagement in aviation security can be further developed and enhanced.Scholars and students of European politics and policy, international relations, international security, terrorism and counter-terrorism, political geography and geopolitics will greatly benefit from this insightful book.
