MIRANDA, Liliana. The external dimension of the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice within the European Union. Relações Internacionais [online]. 2013, n.40, pp.97-109. ISSN 1645-9199.

The development of an Area of Freedom, Security and Justice within the European Union requires a comprehensive strategy that covers not only its internal aspects, but also an external dimension, allowing the EU to deal with threats, at its source, and through strategic partnerships with third countries. In the first part of this article, we briefly analyze how the JHA external dimension has been developed and established itself as a determining policy on the European agenda. In the second part, we demonstrate this external dimension in greater detail through the European migration policy, and how it is possible to obtain within this external action benefits for all stakeholders.

Keywords : Justice and home affairs; external dimension; security; migration.
