Threat Perceptions in the OSCE Area

The results of the first research project by the OSCE Network of Think Tanks and Academic Institutions, 'Threat perceptions in the OSCE area'. The study analyses and compares the threat perceptions of 18 governments of participating States, based on country reports prepared by institutions and think tanks from across the OSCE area.

One of the main conclusions is the prominence of perceived domestic threats combined with questions about the efficiency and legitimacy of governance. The study also includes some initial considerations about the impact of the crisis in Ukraine on the threat perception of several OSCE participating States.

The OSCE Network of Think Tanks and Academic Institutions was created in 2013.
