OSCE Insights 2021: Identifying Common Ground

Institute for Peace Research and Security Policy at the University of Hamburg

doi:10.5771/9783748911456

Summary

Die OSZE ist schon immer ein Club nicht-gleichgesinnter Staaten gewesen. Aber seit der Höhephase der Organisation in den 1990er Jahren ist Kompromissfindung zunehmend schwierig geworden. Die 2021er Ausgabe der OSCE Insights beleuchtet unterschiedliche Interesse von Teilnehmerstaaten, zeigt aber auch, dass Regierungen weiterhin einen Mehrwert in der Organisation sehen. Eine Sonderausgabe identifiziert gemeinsame Interessen ausgewählter Teilnehmerstaaten. Weitere Beiträge untersuchen, neben anderen Themen, Möglichkeiten zur Stärkung des Sekretariates, Optionen für einen Dialog mit China, die Auswirkungen autoritärer Staatsführung für umfassende Sicherheit und die Zukunft von OSZE-Friedenseinsätzen.
