    The volume aims above all to describe the evolution of cooperation in criminal matters in the European Union, simultaneously highlighting its fundamental juridical aspects. The description of the juridical framework of the so-called “third pillar”, which is the context in which cooperation in criminal matters is taking place today, allows the reader to subsequently proceed into the analysis of the principle of mutual recognition of criminal law decisions, and in particular the framework-decision on the European arrest warrant. After an analysis of the simplified extradition system (“rendition”) implemented by the USA, the impacts of the principle of mutual recognition on the institution of extradition are examined, via an in-depth comparison of European and US models. Finally, an attempt to find development perspectives for judicial cooperation in criminal matters within the European Union is presented, highlighting the weaknesses of the present system and suggesting ideas for its possible reform.
