Summary |
Florence Gaub's Chaillot Paper is centred upon one key source of fragility and instability among the EU's southern neighbours: the dif cult relations between the civil and the military sectors. This relationship lies at the very juncture between state and society and involves issues of power, loyalty and legitimacy. Her study offers an in-depth comparative analysis of the main countries in the MENA region (from Morocco to Turkey via Egypt and others) and highlights the fundamental aws and failures that have so far prevented a more functional and balanced relationship between civilian and military authorities -- crucial to building 'resilience' -- from emerging. Moreover, it does so from the perspective of security sector reform (SSR), taken as a conceptual and operational framework with which the international community -- and especially the EU -- can contribute to consolidating the rule of law and, more generally, sustainable systems of governance |
