Abstract

Zajednička sigurnosno-obrambena politika Europske unije, ili kraće ZSOP (eng. Common Security and
Defence Policy, CSDP), nastala je 1999 (tada pod nazivom ESDP, eng. European Security and Defence
Policy) kao pokušaj ostvarivanja određenog stupnja integracije između sigurnosnih i obrambenih sustava
država članica. Sam ZSOP ključni je dio Zajedničke vanjske i sigurnosne politike (ZVSP) Unije kroz čiji
okvir uspostavlja, regulira i utječe na sve politike koje Unija projicira u svoje susjedstvo, ali također
izgrađuje, uvezuje i koordinira sigurnosne sustave njezinih članica. ZSOP se sastoji od brojnih institucija
koje su, kao i sama politika, doživljavale sustavne izmjene od samog osnutka do njihovog današnjeg
stanja. Njegova rastuća uloga u sigurnosti Europe pozicionira ga na istu pozornicu s „velikim igračima“
svjetske sigurnosti poput NATO-a, s kojim je ZSOP već uspostavio radne i suradničke odnose kroz razne
sporazume, no dinamika njegove transformacije nalaže novo definiranje odnosa između ovih sigurnosnih
aktera. Može li se ZSOP afirmirati kao nositelj europske sigurnosti i istovremeno ne narušavati
savezničke odnose sa NATO-om pitanje je čiji odgovor utječe na razvoj europske sigurnosne arhitekture
u 21. stoljeću.

Abstract (english)

The Common Security and Defence Policy, or CSDP for short, is a policy of the European Union. It
started in the 1999. As an effort to achieve a certain level of integration among the defence and security
systems of the Union member states. The CSDP is in itself a part of a bigger policy named Common
Foreign and Security Policy or CFSP, which regulates and affects all the policies outwardly projected by
the Union, but also builds and coordinates the policies of its member states to a certain degree. The CSDP
is composed of a number of institutions which, like the policies itself, have been subjugated to systemic
changes and transformations in the time between their creation and their role today. The ever-increasing
role of the CSDP regarding the security of Europe, is placing the CSDP on the same level as the world
security subjects like NATO, with which the CSDP has already formed cooperative and friendly relations,
the CSDP dynamic transformation calls for a revision of relation between these two security actors. Can
the CSDP establish itself as the carrier of the European security and at the same time keep its good and
cooperative relations with NATO, is a question whose answer will result in the further development of the
European security framework of the 21st Century.
