EUI Seminar: “European Military Transformation in Comparative Perspective"

On February 11th, I'll give the seminar: "European Military Transformation in Comparative Perspective”. This is a Joint Seminar: Europe in the World Research Seminar Series & RSCAS Seminar Series, European University Institute (EUI).
The event will take place at Villa Malafrasca (4.40pm), via Boccaccio 151, Florence.
My EUI colleagues Sandra Destradi and Philip Schleifer will present their research too. Prof. Ulrich Krotz will be the chair.

Here below the abstract of the presentation:
The project aims to analyze the transformation of European armed forces in comparative perspective. The focus of the research is the organizational dimension of the restructuring  of armed forces through three different lenses: doctrine and strategic framework, budget and resource  allocation, and force structure and deployment (ISAF operation in Afghanistan, 2001-2014). The project examines the evolution of armed forces occurred in several European countries: Italy, UK, France, Germany,  Denmark and the Netherlands. Supported by an  extensive use of primary and secondary sources the research aims to provide an innovative contribution to  the current debate on military transformation.​
