Euro-Mediterranean Partnership for the Twenty-First Century - (Interviews and Recollections) by H Brauch & A Marquina & A Biad (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Security experts from North Africa, Europe and the US explore confidence-building measures in the CSCE/OSCE for the Mediterranean. They review the Northern debate and Southern perceptions of four dialogues (OSCE, NATO, WEU, EU). Case-studies on Bosnia-Hercegovina and Cyprus discuss confidence-building measures for conflict resolution. The book offers proposals for conflict prevention, short- and long-term partnership-building measures and a code of conduct and prospects for CBMs and PBMs in Euro-Mediterranean relations for the twenty-first century.
