Analysis of the Arrangements in the Lisbon Reform Treaty Regarding Common Security and Defense Policy

Summary/Abstract: The Heads of States and Governments of the Members States of the European Union (EU) signed the Lisbon Reform Treaty, which amends current EU Founding Treaty and the European Communities (EC) Founding Treaties on 13 December 2007, in the capital of Portugal. When the text of the treaty is examined generally, it is obvious that the Treaty aims the enlarging EU to be more effective union and thus it gives place to far–reaching institutional reforms and innovations, which were in the rejected EU Constitutional Treaty. When the Lisbon Reform Treaty is analyzed from the point of view of Common Security and Defense Policy (CSDP), it can be seen that the intergovernmental decision–making structure remains the same as it is in the current EU Treaty, as well as that the institutional structure for the operation of the policy is simplified. It is also clear that the role of the Union in the world within the context of CSDP is aimed to strengthen in order to develop a more efficient Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP). In this context this study, analyzes the changes and continuities of the Lisbon Reform Treaty regarding the CSDP.
