Resumen

CARRAPICO, Helena. The Godfather goes to Brussels: the evolution of the organized crime concept in the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice. Relações Internacionais [online]. 2011, n.31, pp.141-157. ISSN 1645-9199.

This article aims at tracing, criti- cally, the European Union’s discourse on organized crime, by establishing its relation with a wider discourse on the creation and development of the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (AFSJ). It pointed out how the rationale for the AFSJ's deeper integration was the need to compensate for the negative externalities of the Internal Market and to protect the liberty of movement from abuse. This trend led to the definition of a balance between freedom and security, characterized by a gradual EU institutionalization of Justice and Home Affairs and a permanent struggle between the intergovernmentalisation and the communitarization of this area.

Palabras clave : European Union; organized crime policies; justice and home affairs; police cooperation.
