The Visegrad Four: from Loose Geographic Group to Security Internationalization?
The Visegrad Four: from Loose Geographic Group to Security Internationalization?

Summary/Abstract: The author defines that institutionalization through the construction of the Visegrad Group identity has aided in this region’s rise to prevalence in areas such as trade and security; and contends that in order to have even stronger influence in Europe, the Group must continue to define its relevance as a unified faction. The author concludes that the building up of a common Visegrad identity must be necessarily based on a common language, in which one addresses common security threats, positions toward Russia, toward the transatlantic relations and a common vision of one geographically and culturally shared political view of European and Euro- Atlantic affairs.
