Europe’s Collective Defence Architecture represents the first systematic and comprehensive analysis of NATO’s Article 5 and the EU’s Article 42(7). Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and growing uncertainty over American commitment to NATO and European security have intensified debate over collective defence, strategic autonomy, and the EU’s role as a security actor. Using a law-in-context approach, the book compares these overlapping mutual defence clauses, examining their origins, legal obligations, scope, and credibility within an evolving geopolitical and strategic context. As the war in Ukraine approaches its fifth anniversary and uncertainty over NATO’s security guarantee persists, this analysis is both timely and essential.
