In this articlc, the dramatic shift occured in the aftermath of the Cold War
within the European security perception and the consequences of the rupture from
the American-oriented security understanding will be handled. Within the historical
framework of the cvolution of the concept of securty since its emergence in the
seventeenth century, the Europeanized security understanding` appeared in the
Continent as well as institutionalized in the European Union will be explained with
certain instances in order to demonstrate the rift` between the two sides of the
Atlantic. The heart of the study will compromise the reasons of this particular
resolution and possible future projections upon the world-wide security. Drawing
from the paper, the conclusion will attempt to position itself in favor of a more
promising post-Cold War European security perception with respect to the
traditional American model and its imminent failures on global security.
