Border control in compliance with EU acquis

PhD (C.) Miranda Boshnjaku

Abstract

Nowadays, when economic globalization, international migration and fear towards terrorism

and organized crime have been increased, a proper management of borders is a political

priority, both within EU and wider. The term Integrated Border Management (IBM) refers to the

coordination and cooperation among all law enforcement agencies involved in border security

and facilitation of trade to introduce e cacious systems of integrated border managements, in

order to achieve the common goal for open but controlled and secure borders. Several actors

have been involved in tasks related to the management of state borders in every country.

Although they clearly have a di erent focus and objectives in accordance with their duties

and responsibilities, they work together towards a common strategic goal.

Keywords: border control, EU Acquis, Albania.
