Book excerpt: In a highly eventful year, the OSCE Yearbook 2015 assembles a compendium of insightful analysis and reports by leading practitioners and experts on events relating to the Organization, its 57 participating States, and the state of European security in all its dimensions. A special focus section looks at European security 40 years after the signing of the Helsinki Final Act. It includes a contribution by Germany's Foreign Minister, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, a critical review of the original CSCE process by Reinhard Mutz, and several in-depth analyses of European security and Russian-Western relations. A second focal point is the Ukraine crisis. Two key OSCE actors, Heidi Tagliavini and Claus Neukirch, provide first-hand accounts of the Organization's work in the areas of mediation and monitoring. Further contributions explore the role played by the ODIHR in Ukraine, the OSCE's overall approach to crisis management, and the link between conventional arms control and crisis management. Finally, P. Terrence Hopmann compares the current situation to the Ukraine crisis of 1992-96. Additional topics explored in the OSCE Yearbook 2015 include non-citizens in the Baltic states; the OSCE's field presences in Uzbekistan and Moldova; political developments in Georgia and the Western Balkans; religion and culture in Tajikistan; the withdrawal of ISAF from Afghanistan; the Islamic State's attempts to expand into Central Asia; the growth of right-wing populism in Europe; religious tolerance and the limits of satire; the importance of human security in the Mediterranean refugee crisis; the OSCE and the Arms Trade Treaty; the OSCE's Border Monitoring Operation in Georgia; and the history of OSCE involvement with civil society. The OSCE Yearbook includes extensive annexes with facts and figures on the participating States, a list of recent events, and a selected current bibliography

This book was released on 2016-01-07 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zwei Ereignisse, die Europa und die OSZE 2014 besonders gepragt und das Interesse an der Organisation schlagartig erhoht haben, stehen im Mittelpunkt der Expertenanalysen und Insiderberichte im nunmehr 20. Band der Reihe: die Ukrainekrise und der Helsinki+40-Prozess. Im Themenschwerpunkt zum Helsinki+40-Prozess gewahrt der 2014 auaerst erfolgreich agierende Schweizer Vorsitz einen Einblick in seine Tatigkeit. Zeitzeugen lassen die Ereignisse seit der Unterzeichnung der Helsinki-Schlussakte Revue passieren. Serbiens Auaenminister umreiat die wichtigsten Aufgaben, denen sich sein Land als OSZE-Vorsitz des Jahres 2015 stellen muss, und der ehemalige russische Auaenminister Igor Iwanow legt dar, warum die OSZE heute noch genauso wichtig ist wie vor 40 Jahren. Der Generalsekretar der OSZE Lamberto Zannier befasst sich mit der OSZE als regionale Abmachung im Sinne der VN-Charta, Steven Pifer geht jungsten Entwicklungen in den amerikanisch-russischen Beziehungen nach. Die diesjahrigen Landerberichte sind Turkmenistan, dem OSZE-"Neuling" Mongolei und Groabritannien im Kontext des schottischen Unabhangigkeitsreferendums gewidmet. Im Kapitel uber Konfliktpravention und Streitschlichtung, das 2014 groatenteils im Zeichen der Ukrainekrise steht, werden die Chancen und Herausforderungen, die mit der Einsetzung der OSZE-Sonderbeobachtermission in der Ukraine verbunden sind, Hintergrunde und Auswirkungen des Konflikts, die Motive Russlands und die Entwicklungen in der ukrainischen Zivilgesellschaft von internationalen Experten beleuchtet. Weitere Themen sind in diesem Jahr u.a. der Konflikt um Berg-Karabach, Russlands Kritik an der Wahlbeobachtung des BDIMR, konventionelle Rustungskontrolle vor dem Hintergrund der Ukrainekrise sowie die Mittelmeerkooperation der OSZE vier Jahre nach Beginn des "Arabischen Fruhlings". Wie stets bietet das Jahrbuch in einem umfassenden Anhang Daten und Fakten zu den 57 Teilnehmerstaaten der OSZE, einen Uberblick uber wichtige Veranstaltungen sowie eine aktuelle Literaturauswahl.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection examines the theory, practice, and application of state neutrality in international relations. With a focus on its modern-day applications, the studies in this volume analyze the global implications of permanent neutrality for Taiwan, Russia, Ukraine, the European Union, and the United States. Exploring permanent neutrality’s role as a realist security model capable of rivaling collective security, the authors argue that permanent neutrality has the potential to decrease major security dilemmas on the global stage.

Book Germany   s Role in European Russia Policy

Download or read book Germany s Role in European Russia Policy written by Liana Fix and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-24 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contributes to the debate about a new German power in Europe with an analysis of Germany’s role in European Russia policy. It provides an up-to-date account of Germany’s “Ostpolitik” and how Germany has influenced EU-Russia relations since the Eastern enlargement in 2004 - partly along, partly against the interests and preferences of new member states. The volume combines a rich empirical analysis of Russia policy with a theory-based perspective on Germany’s power and influence in the EU. The findings demonstrate that despite Germany’s central role, exercising power within the EU is dependent on legitimacy and acceptance by other member states.

Book Parliamentarization of International Governmental Organizations

Download or read book Parliamentarization of International Governmental Organizations written by Aleksandra Chiniaeva and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-22 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a general framework for a better understanding of the differences and similarities between the institutional rules of intergovernmental organizations that include parliamentary elements, and analyzes the role of various types of international parliamentary assemblies in the system of global governance, as well as insights into the process known as “parliamentarization of international organizations.” Firstly, it presents a case study of various types of international parliamentary assemblies, which is then used to analyze the law of particular international organizations that include parliamentary assemblies or relate to them. Secondly, the book compares two parliamentary assemblies of international organizations – the Parliamentary Assembly of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE PA) and the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) – in terms of structure, powers, and relations with their IGOs. It also investigates the activities of assemblies and their cooperations for the purpose to explore the positive effects of the work of international parliamentary assemblies and their potential for having an impact at the national level. Lastly, the book analyzes the tangible and desirable powers of international assemblies by comparing examples of existing international parliamentary assemblies with the UN Parliamentary Assembly project. Based on that, the author compiles a list of essential requirements and principles for effective international parliamentary assemblies.

This book was released on 2017-04-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The OSCE Yearbook 2016 documents the "turbulent times" (Frank-Walter Steinmeier) in which Germany assumed the chairmanship of the OSCE in 2016. Leading academics and experienced OSCE practitioners analyse and report on significant events and developments in the OSCE and its 57 participating states over the past twelve months, and comment on the state of European security as a whole. Marcel Peko, the director of the OSCE Conflict Prevention Centre, opens this year's yearbook by outlining new approaches to resolving the Ukraine crisis, which remains a central concern; he is joined by the project coordinator in Ukraine, who discusses his work. Experts also outline the key features of a future security strategy for the OSCE, comment on the revival of conventional arms control as a priority of the German chairmanship and discuss the organization's future role in conflict management. The OSCE Yearbook draws lessons for successful conflict resolution from a report on the peace process in Northern Ireland. In this year's special focus section on "Migration and Refugees in the OSCE Area", international experts and prominent OSCE representatives consider the crisis of European refugee and migration policy, the OSCE's potential future contribution to migration management, and the organization and its institutions' reaction so far to the challenges of the refugee crisis. Other contributions provide an insight into the United Kingdom's approach to cooperative security in the year of the Brexit vote and some of its domestic consequences, the four-day war in Nagorno-Karabakh, the possibility of OSCE peacekeeping, the history of the OSCE's economic and environmental dimensions, and China's relations with the Central Asian states. A heartfelt plea for the OSCE to be granted a long-overdue legal personality completes the yearbook's broad spectrum of topics. The OSCE Yearbook includes extensive annexes containing facts and figures on its participating states, a list of recent events and a selected current bibliography.

Book Securitization and Democracy in Eurasia

Download or read book Securitization and Democracy in Eurasia written by Anja Mihr and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open-access book presents cutting-edge research on securitization and democratic development in the OSCE Region. Gathering contributions by practitioners and researchers from various disciplines, it presents case studies and highlights recent activities of proactive engagement in democratic institution-building and responding to security threats from the Balkans to Central Asia. The volume is divided into three parts, the first of which focuses on security-related matters, armed conflicts, minorities, and women’s safety, as well as the roles that civil society, foreign governments, social media, and external donors play in this area. These contributions illustrate how the OSCE’s informal approach to peace, security, and securitization as norm entrepreneur is closely linked to the level of democracy among its member states. The second part presents a special section on the political implications of China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), assessing the impact of this infrastructural program on the levels of democracy and/or autocracy in Eurasia. The third part consists of short chapters outlining future research and debates. The book will appeal to students and scholars of international relations, security studies, and the human rights-politics nexus. This is the 2022 instalment in a series of books released by the OSCE Academy in Bishkek. The OSCE works to promote Minority Protection, Security, Democratic Development and Human Rights, guided by the Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR), and to enhance securitization and development policies in Eurasia, Europe, Central Asia and North America. Since being founded in 1993, the OSCE and its agencies and departments have attracted a wealth of academic research in various fields and disciplines, ranging from economic development and election monitoring to enhancing global principles of human rights and securitization.
