Abstract
Within the new legal architecture of the European Security and Defence Policy (ESDP) created by the Treaty of Lisbon permanent structured cooperation is one of the rare genuine novelties. It constitutes a new and additional mechanism of flexibility designed for the specific needs generated by the ESDP: military capability improvement. It is closely related to the more general concept of enhanced cooperation. But there are a number of remarkable differences which indicate a specific European interest in permanent structured cooperation. Therefore it can be regarded as a privileged relative of the mechanism of enhanced cooperation.
