In tandem with
initial of efforts for political and economic integration in Europe, attempts
to form a common security and defense policy were observed. The 1999 European
Security and Defense Policy (ESDP) and the 2009 Common Security and Defense
Policy (CSDP) long focused on common security policies neglecting much-needed
integration in the defense ‘sphere’. The Permanent Structured Cooperation
(PESCO) launched in 2017 aims at fostering the EU’s defense actorness. This
study examines PESCO’s contribution to integration efforts in CSDP’s defense
dimension and the development of the EU’s defense capabilities, and the
mechanism’s constraints and potential drawing on process tracing method.

AVRUPA BİRLİĞİ’NİN ORTAK GÜVENLİK VE SAVUNMA POLİTİKASI’NIN SAVUNMA BOYUTUNUN GELİŞİMİNDE PESCO’NUN ROLÜ: FIRSATLAR VE ZORLUKLAR

Öz

Avrupa’da siyasi ve ekonomik bütünleşmeye yönelik ilk
çabalarla eş zamanlı olarak bir güvenlik ve savunma politikası oluşturma
girişimleri gözlemlenmiştir. 1999 Helsinki AB Zirvesi’nde açıklanan Avrupa
Güvenlik ve Savunma Politikası (AGSP) ve 2009’da Lizbon Antlaşması ile hayata
geçirilen Ortak Güvenlik ve Savunma Politikası (OGSP), uzun bir süre güvenlik
politikalarına ağırlık verilmesinin ve dolayısıyla savunma boyutunda bütünleşmenin ihmal
edilmesinin önüne geçememiştir. 2017’de hayata geçirilen “Daimi Yapılandırılmış
İşbirliği” (PESCO) ile AB’nin savunma aktörlüğünün etkinleştirilmesi
hedeflenmektedir. Çalışmada, PESCO’nun OGSP’nin savunma boyutunda gerçekleşmesi
amaçlanan bütünleşmeye ve AB’nin savunma kabiliyetlerinin gelişimine katkısı,
bu süreçte oluşan zorluklar ve fırsatlar, nedensel mekanizmalara odaklanan
süreç takibi yöntemiyle analiz edilmektedir.
