Abstract
Since 11 September 2001, the European Union (EU) has significantly increased its involvement in counter-terrorism. A sizeable cluster of those new EU counter-terrorism acts were challenged in front of the European Court of Justice, and many of those acts ended being annulled by the Court. In the foreign dimension, the European Parliament challenged three counter-terrorist acts: the first Transatlantic Agreement on passenger name records, the EU technical assistance to the Philippines and the EU UN terror list. The analysis of the nature and implications of these three cases shed light on the evolving configuration of the EU foreign policy in terms of both institutional design and ideological choices.
