Description
Summary:The Schengen area is a cornerstone of European integration. In recent years, however, the integrity of the Schengen area has been tested by the migration crisis, terrorism, and, not least, the COVID-19 pandemic. Some Member States have responded to these crises by maintaining border controls beyond the six-month time limit set by the Schengen Borders Code. This study aims to examine whether Member States can invoke public security considerations to reintroduce border controls for a more extended period and whether integration requirements of free movement can be balanced against the security interests of Member States in the Schengen area.
