European Non-proliferation Policy, 1988-1992 by Harald Müller Pdf

A Survey of European policy of non-proliferation of nuclear weapons between 1988 and 1992, a period of great interest. During those years, an earthquake has shattered the political landscape in Europe. Politicians, citizens and researchers still struggle with adapting to the new reality. Nevertheless, it is not self-explaining that the grand political reversals should have necessarily affected this policy field. The chapters give an insight into this period of rapid - if not revolutionary - change that did not leave non-proliferation policies untouched. This volume is the product of a team, a group of committed researchers for whom borders are no inhibition to working together for a common purpose. In this sense, it is truly European.

The Handbook of European Defence Policies and Armed Forces by Hugo Meijer,Marco Wyss Pdf

The armed forces of Europe have undergone a dramatic transformation since the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Handbook of European Defence Policies and Armed Forces provides the first comprehensive analysis of national security and defence policies, strategies, doctrines, capabilities, and military operations, as well as the alliances and partnerships of European armed forces in response to the security challenges Europe has faced since the end of the cold war. A truly cross-European comparison of the evolution of national defence policies and armed forces remains a notable blind spot in the existing literature. The Handbook of European Defence Policies and Armed Forces aims to fill this gap with fifty-one contributions on European defence and international security from around the world. The six parts focus on: country-based assessments of the evolution of the national defence policies of Europe's major, medium, and lesser powers since the end of the cold war; the alliances and security partnerships developed by European states to cooperate in the provision of national security; the security challenges faced by European states and their armed forces, ranging from interstate through intra-state and transnational; the national security strategies and doctrines developed in response to these challenges; the military capabilities, and the underlying defence and technological industrial base, brought to bear to support national strategies and doctrines; and, finally, the national or multilateral military operations by European armed forces. The contributions to The Handbook collectively demonstrate the fruitfulness of giving analytical precedence back to the comparative study of national defence policies and armed forces across Europe.

The EU and the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons by S. Blavoukos,D. Bourantonis,C. Portela Pdf

Much of the literature on the emerging role of the EU as a non-proliferation actor has only a minimal engagement with theory. This collection aims to rectify this by placing the role of the EU in the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons within an analytical framework inspired by emerging literature on the performance of international organisations.

STOPPING the Nuclear threat in Europe and South Asia by David Heilbron Price Pdf

After World War Two, European States expected further wars. Many States including Switzerland, France, Germany, wanted to create their own A-bombs. War did not happen. Instead Europe entered the longest period of peace in more than 2000 years. Thanks to the diplomacy of Robert Schuman, creator of the European Community, European States created an Atomic Energy Community which controlled the use of fissile material for bombs. Today among worldwide crises and threats of nuclear war, Europe needs to complete the obligations in the Euratom Treaty of 1957. How should democrats deal with the Indian bomb, the Pakistani bomb and the Iranian bomb? This short book shows how to apply the blueprint of the successful European experiment elsewhere. 'It is possible for the world to cure itself from the threat of nuclear war, ' says author, David H Price, Schuman historian, journalist and former Euratom official. 'Not only that, it is possible for the world to enter a time of great prosperity.'

European Non-proliferation Policy, 1993-1995 by Harald Müller Pdf

This year, PRIF's European non-proliferation program has its 10th anniversary. Following Nuclear Export Controls in Europe (European Interuniversity Press, 1995), this volume is the sixth book published by the program. It differs from its predecessors in that non-proliferation policy, due to the Non-Proliferation Treaty Extension Conference, held a central place in the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) of the European Union and the associated countries of Central Eastern Europe: it became subject of a «Joint Action» the most significant CFSP instrument under the Maastricht Treaty. This reflected the high rank that preventing the spread of weapons of mass destruction has obtained in the post-Cold War European security agenda. The studies contained in this volume focus very much on this Joint Action. They prove both how difficult it is to arrive at a common policy, starting from vastly different positions, and the power that a focused policy by 15 member states, plus the associates, can yield. Since the fabric of CFSP is so much hidden from the public eye, this book offers one rare insight into the working of this highly important part of European integration, and it reveals that CFSP, after all, might be better than its often maligned reputation.

Civilizational Discourses in Weapons Control by Ritu Mathur Pdf

This book seeks to decolonize practices of arms control and disarmament. In this endeavor it seeks to problematize our understanding of time and civilization as rhetorical resources. The need for such an undertaking can be premised on the claim that while problems of modernity, ethnocentrism and universalism are now a central concern within the field of international relations, these ideas are scarcely debated or contested within the field of arms control and disarmament. The singular focus on technological innovations and specific policy-oriented agreements in practices of arms control and disarmament appears to stymie the need for such engagements. This book is an invitation to explore intersecting discourses on colonialism, racialism, nationalism and humanitarianism within a historically grounded terrain of weapons control. An understanding of these practices is vital not to prescribe any standards of civilization or exceptionalism in weapons control but to be cognizant through critique of the dangers embedded in any effort at reconstellating the constitutional nuclear order.

Common Foreign and Security Policy by Martin Holland Pdf

This second edition looks at the first decade of the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) of the European Union. Founded at the start of the Balkan wars in the 1990s and celebrating its tenth anniversary in the wake of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the CFSP has certainly faced large challenges. This book explores how the CFSP has coped and how it needs to adapt in order to survive the future.
