Abstract

In Chapter 1, we introduced an EU decision-making model for foreign and security policy. In a crisis, conflict, or natural disaster, EU and national officials respond to the inputs of state and non-state actors. Decision-makers consider contending interests and weigh the costs and benefits of options available to the EU. One possible output of the EU deliberation process is the member state decision to deploy a CSDP operation.
