The Council of Europe and Youth
The Council of Europe's youth policy: "working for and with young people" has evolved over the past thirty years. The creation of the European Youth Centres and the European Youth Foundation as well as the establishment of a true system of partnership between youth organisations and governments reflect a twofold political awareness. On the one hand, the need to provide young people with a really creative place for participation in society was recognised; and on the other, there was an awareness that the new stages in the building of Europe required not only governments but society at large to participate.

Council of Europe Law
Since its foundation, the Council of Europe has established a common legal system for European states, based on democracy, the rule of law and human rights. Its standard-setting texts have helped its members meet the challenges of changing societies and now apply all over Europe given the organisation¿s unprecedented geographical enlargement since 1989. In this connection, the Council of Europe has played a key role in the accession of the new member states to the European Union. The first section of the book deals with the "constitutional" law of the Council of Europe, or its internal statutes in the broad sense. It covers the 1949 Statute, which, along with related texts, lays down the Council¿s aims and determines its membership and operating methods. The second section concerns the role played by the Council of Europe - which has always been very active in standard-setting - in the harmonisation of European states¿ domestic law. The third section situates Council of Europe law in the European context. For instance, it studies the extent to which Council of Europe conventions have been incorporated in domestic law and how Council of Europe law and European Union law co-exist.
Global Governance, Trade and the Crisis in Europe
The first part of this compilation contains articles that highlight the main challenges to the structure of global governance, trade, and development. They are based on empirical analysis resulting from my own professional experience with both the United Nations' system and trade negotiations. They show the challenges that multilateral regimes face in maintaining their relevance. The second part of this compilation contains reflections on how the financial crisis has affected Europe and, what I believe, are the links with educational systems that have not been adapted to the new realities of the globalized world economy. Europe is stuck in fear and, therefore, does not manage to mobilize its creative potential to develop innovative solutions for youth and entrepreneurs. It looks at "what it used to be" rather than at "what it is to be" in the future. Education and training methodologies must be adapted to the new economic realities to encourage young people to think creatively and innovate.

Annuaire Europeen 1991
The "European Yearbook" promotes the scientific study of European organisations and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. Each volume contains a detailed survey of the history, structure and yearly activities of each organisation and an up-to-date chart providing a clear overview of the member states of each organisation. In addition, a number of articles on topics of general interest are included in each volume. A general index by subject and name, and a cumulative index of all the articles which have appeared in the "Yearbook," are included in every volume and provide direct access to the "Yearbook's" subject matter. Each volume contains a comprehensive bibliography covering the year's relevant publications. This is an indispensable work of reference for anyone dealing with the European institutions.
