Un sens à l'Europe
Gros sous et réforme constitutionnelle : tels sont les points souvent évoqués pour convaincre les peuples européens d’accepter les programmes d’élargissement et l’Union économique et monétaire. Sur le sens même de l’intégration, dirigeants et citoyens partagent beaucoup d’incertitudes. Et pourtant. Dès la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, gagner la paix était un projet clair. Trois principes d’action ont guidé la démarche des fondateurs : un principe de réconciliation, un principe d’action concertée, un principe de reconnaissance de l’autre, qui se sont incarnés dans de nouveaux modes d’organisation politique, économique et sociale. N’est-ce pas ce « tr...
European Citizenship--in the Process of Construction
European citizenship is still a contested concept, bringing together two notions and therefore two different debates: one around Europe and European identity, And The other related to citizenship and non-citizenship. Europe, In an ongoing process of construction, should be shaped and defined by its citizens. Young people in particular have a special interest in and concern about what kind of Europe they want to live in. it is therefore important to reflect on how European citizenship and debates around European identity could help and empower young people to actively contribute to building Europe. The essays collected here address this issue. They present the debates and findings of the research seminar entitled "Young People and Active European Citizenship" organised by the Youth Partnership between the Council of Europe And The European Commission. European citizenship remains one of the main priorities of this partnership.
The Evolution of International Security Studies
The first intellectual history of International Security Studies since 1945, providing an unparalleled survey for students and scholars.
Understanding the Bush Doctrine
In this volume, leading scholars of U.S. foreign policy, international relations, and political psychology examine one of the most consequential and controversial statements of national security policy in contemporary American history. Unlike other books which focus only on unilateralism or preventive war, Stanley A. Renshon and Peter Suedfeld provide a comprehensive framework with which to analyze the Bush Doctrine by identifying five central and interrelated elements of the doctrine: American pre-eminence assertive realism equivocal alliances selective multilateralism democratic transformation. Given its centrality to American national security, and the fact that the effects of it are likely to be felt well into the twenty-first century, Understanding the Bush Doctrine provides a critically balanced and pointed assessment of the Bush Doctrine and its premises, as well as a fair appraisal of its implications and prospects.
Combating Proliferation
Selected by Choice Magazine as an Outstanding Academic Title The intelligence community's flawed assessment of Iraq's weapons systems—and the Bush administration's decision to go to war in part based on those assessments—illustrates the political and policy challenges of combating the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. In this comprehensive assessment, defense policy specialists Jason Ellis and Geoffrey Kiefer find disturbing trends in both the collection and analysis of intelligence and in its use in the development and implementation of security policy. Analyzing a broad range of recent case studies—Pakistan's development of nuclear weapons, North Korea's defiance of U.N. ...
Arms Control
In January, 1990, the Mosher Institute conducted its second annual arms control and disarmament symposium in Houston, Texas. Representatives from the Soviet Union, Eastern and Western Europe, neutral and nonaligned nations, the United States, and the Third World attended. Speakers and commentators included senior members of the U.S. and Soviet armed forces, members of negotiating delegations, and experts from industry and academe. The proceedings of this symposium, Arms Control: Problems and Prospects, 1990, are the tape recordings, edited only to ensure clarity, of the six sessions: "Trends in Military Doctrine: Implications for Future Security Relationships in Europe"; "Negotiations on Str...
Immigration, Integration, and Security
Recent acts of terrorism in Britain and Europe and the events of 9/11 in the United States have greatly influenced immigration, security, and integration policies in these countries. Yet many of the current practices surrounding these issues were developed decades ago, and are ill-suited to the dynamics of today's global economies and immigration patterns. At the core of much policy debate is the inherent paradox whereby immigrant populations are frequently perceived as posing a potential security threat yet bolster economies by providing an inexpensive workforce. Strict attention to border controls and immigration quotas has diverted focus away from perhaps the most significant dilemma: the...
