EUROPEAN AGENCIES, INSTITUTIONS AND BODIES ENGAGED IN BORDER SECURITY IN THE FACE OF ILLEGAL MIGRATION FLOWS

Summary/Abstract: Borders controls within the EU need to be effective and permissive at the same time. The basic policy issue in this area resides in strengthening while softening border control - in other words, complementing the need for mobility with the need for control. In this regard, integration has become a genuine balancing act for an incomplete federation such as the EU, with its sensitive mix of one single external border and 27 separate legal/administrative systems. EU agencies, institutions and bodies actively engaged in border security are herein briefly reviewed.
