  26 May 2008, by Carrera Sergio , Geyer Florian
  The Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (AFSJ) constitutes one of the policies which will be more affected by the new institutional configurations that will be brought about by the Reform Treaty signed in Lisbon on the 13 December 2007 (Treaty of Lisbon).
