The paper explores selected factors influencing the process of radicalisation leading to the use of political violence and terror by the Muslim minorities living in the European Union member states. Internal and external catalysts conditioning this process and methods of their analysis have been presented. The second section examines various counter-radicalisation and de-radicalisation efforts of the EU. The authors analysed the multidimensional European Union policy in the area of counteracting radicalisation for empowering the population and member states in preventing the radicalisation and recruitment to terrorism and emphasising the role of social partners and local authorities. Also, the promotion of good practices for combating radicalisation, developed under the auspices of the multidisciplinary Radicalisation Awareness Network (RAN) is presented.

Union Policy

Clusters in the European Union policies are significant tool in boosting competitiveness and innovation of enterprises and regions. One of the most important documents in the European Union policy on clusters has been issued in 2008. Therefore, we can observe the emergence of a new kind of policy – cluster based policy. The goal of this article is to show that policy oriented on the clusters is aimed at developing a strategy for rising the competitiveness of regions and enterprises. One can risk the thesis that the concept of clustering is the answer to the question about a new way of generating competitiveness which takes into account a wide range of factors. The issue of clusters is associated with occurrence of a number of benefits for both participants in the cluster and as well as the whole economy. The author identifies and defines them as a benefit at the micro and macro level.

Restrictive Measures

In modern world, as more and more states are reluctant to apply direct military force, the role of non-military instruments of coercion such as economic sanctions augments in international relations. In recent years economic sanctions have become firmly anchored in the system of European instruments of foreign policy. Although their implementation and monitoring still requires substantial improvements, progress and high level of consolidation can be witnessed on several recent examples. The article focuses on the evolution of the institutional basis and the mechanisms of coordination of the European Union policy in the sphere of restrictive measures, as well as detailed analysis of current tools of elaboration and implementation of various economic foreign instruments. Three stages can be distinguished in the evolution of European restrictive measures. Originally, there was no coordination as sanctions were introduced by nation states separately and individually. However, with the rise of economic interdependency of the allies there appeared new instruments for the exchange of information and opinions that have evolved into strictly binding mechanisms we can witness today. The example of Iranian sanctions shows what new schemes have been elaborated to increase the effectiveness of sanctions policy and how they have spread and developed, including to work out sanctions against Russia.
