Journal Title: EUROLIMES - Year 2018, Vol 25, Issue 25

Abstract

Research of the influence of operational activity of European Common Security and Defence Policy Missions, namely EUBAM and EUAM on the strategic security and legal domains of Moldova and Ukraine especially taking into account the progress of the processes of Europeanization, transformation of identical parameters and socialization of this states is extremely relevant сonsidering the current geopolitical situation in the region, the emergence of new and exacerbated of the old security threats. Approximation of the rules of functioning of the legal and security systems of Moldova and Ukraine according to European Union standards can fundamentally change the principles of the construction and development of these states and geopolitical configuration in the region on the eastern border of the European Union. In the process of conducting research, it was used the foundations of moderate (thin) version of social constructivism as a theoretical and methodological basis. It is revealed in the article that EUBAM is an effective mechanism of reformation and modernization of Moldovan and Ukrainian border-management and strongly influences cross-border security. But the study did not detect a considerable and direct effect of EUBAM on the transformation of the parameters of the identities of Moldova and Ukraine. EUAM at the present moment is not so effective due to existing internal and external obstacles but in the long-term perspective, operational activity of EUAM has more potential and can bring more profound changes on the process of Europeanization, socialization and the transformation of the parameters of Ukraine's national identity through reformation of its legal sphere.
