Geneva, Helsinki, and the Making of the CSCE

Beschreibung

The Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe culminated in the Helsinki Final Act of 1975, a document that many contemporaries dismissed as little more than a diplomatic compromise. Yet history would prove otherwise. The Final Act was deliberately ambiguous, but not devoid of substance. This volume presents more than 100 documents edited by the International Ed itors of Diplomatic Documents from fifteen countries (Austria, Canada, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Poland, Portugal, Switzerland, Türkiye, the United Kingdom, and the United States) and two international or ganisations (EU and NATO). Together, they trace the process from the Budapest Appeal of March 1969, through the painstaking negotiations in Helsinki and Geneva, to the signing of the CSCE Final Act in August 1975, which established an enduring framework for political and security cooperation. Collectively, they offer a multi-perspective account of one of the most significant achievements of European multilateral diplomacy during the Cold War.
