Abstract
This thesis zooms in on how the European Border Assistance Mission (EUBAM), as a cooperation mechanism actually influences the relation between the EU and Libya and gaining a clear insight and better understanding of the actual impact the mission has had up to now. Theories that form the foundation of this research are that of the Duality of Structuration Theory by Anthony Giddens as a means to understand the ways in which the border between Libya and Europe has been constructed and reconstructed throughout time and space EU and that of Post0Colonial Theory as the study concerned with uneven, diverse and the contested impact of colonialism on cultures of colonized countries and colonized people, that shows how colonial behaviour and thoughts are reproduced throughout time.
