Summary/Abstract: The building and implementation of European security policies depend mostly on the interests of the EU member states. They decide on the course of the cooperation among the member states, both ‘’internal’’ and ‘’external“, and to what extent the elements of human security will be represented in the implementation of these policies. This paper aims at showing a strategic approach to the building of the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice, with a special emphasis on the proposal for the Internal Security Strategy. First, we will look at the theoretical dilemmas around the issue of the internal security of the EU, considering its ‘’non-state’’ nature. The human security concept is one of the constants in the EU’s strategic approach, present throughout the process of improving the cooperation in the judiciary and internal affairs. However, this concept is not typical of the internal, but also of external domain of the EU security. In that case, the human security concept can be used as a value for humanitarian activities or in crisis management, civil-military coordination and conflict prevention.
