Biography
Historian Beatrice de Graaf is well known for her radio and TV appearances in which she comments as a researcher on the hot topics of terrorism and security. Out of the public eye, she enjoys exploring archives in search of historical documents that give insight into security policies through the centuries. Her ERC research focuses on international cooperation within Europe. The joint security policy began earlier than many people think: the professor and her team are presently investigating the 19th century.
