“…The Roma-Lyon Group consists of country experts organized into six sub-groups: (1) Criminal and Legal Affairs; (2) Transportation Security; (3) Law Enforcement; (4) Migration Experts; (5) High Tech Crime; and (6) Counter Terrorism Practitioners. Group members meet three times per year, but as a common practice, members are in continuous communication throughout the year (Scherrer and Dupont 2010, 163). As a network driven by “securocrats” (Pawlak 2009), the organizing principle of the group does not follow a negotiation model, but a consensus model where a group of experts—largely from justice departments, and policing or security agencies—could establish a working agenda.…”

“…The G8 Roma Lyon group is a practitioner-led network consisting of expert representatives from the G8/7 nations in areas of security, policing, and counter-terrorism. Since the G8—and its subgroups—have no secretariat and, given the secretive nature of a) security governance issues, and b) G8 meetings in general, there is very little information regarding the activities of the Roma-Lyon Group (with the exception of Scherrer 2009; Scherrer and Dupont 2010). Notwithstanding, we do know that the central rationale for the group is to develop and distill “best practices” in the field of transnational organized crime and counter-terrorism.…”

Threats of radicalization have become dominant tropes for Western security agencies. Th is article examines eff orts to address radicalization in the penal setting. Examining the prison counter-radicalization project directed by the secretive G8 Roma-Lyon Group, the article details Canadian participation on the basis of wanting to acquire counter-radicalization best practices from abroad. Contributing to criminal justice policy transfer studies, the article highlights disjunctures between reforms programs driven by powerful actors and particular contexts where these prescribed policy reforms take shape. Characterizing the Roma-Lyon Group as a venue for norm-makers such as the United States and the United Kingdom, and Canada as a norm-taker, the article traces the transfer of counter-radicalization practices from the transnational to the national level. Underlining how the replication of counter-radicalization policies fi ts into trends of precautionary risk and governing through insecurity, the article concludes by highlighting what the transfer of prisoner radicalization policy means for future socio-legal research.

Policy networks for European internal security governance: toward a more systematic empirical and normative assessment

European cooperation on internal security is usually seen through the lens of highly salient normative debates, such as the appropriate balance between freedom and security. This paper provides an alternative and long-term perspective on this policy area. The first theoretical part condenses four alternative theoretical perspectives on European internal security governance that relate to the wider relationship between informal and formal governance mechanisms. The second part presents a matching empirical overview of more than 180 European governance networks on police and criminal cooperation, counterterrorism, border security, migration policy, cybersecurity and disaster prevention. Expertise-driven and policy field-specific dynamics appear significant to account for the breadth and variety of policy networks. In contrast, executive empowerment, venue-shopping or deliberate side-stepping of formal decision-making forums do not appear as dominant trends, although there are severe structural shortcomings with regard to the transparency and legal basis of the mapped policy networks.
