Helsinki Revisited: A Key U.S. Negotiator's Memoirs on the Development of the CSCE into the OSCE (Soviet and Post-Soviet Politics and Society) - Softcover
The Helsinki Final Act of 1975 set in motion the legitimate, peaceful redrawing of national boundaries in many postcommunist countries―a triumph for pluralist democracy, the market economy, and personal freedom. Today, this policy serves as a diplomatic template for the proper handling of the current situation in Ukraine and crises in other regions of the former Soviet Union. A senior U.S. diplomat who operated at the center of these negotiations, John J. Maresca presents in this volume his personal recollections of the Helsinki Accords and the events that resulted in subsequent agreements.

Review:
Hafiz Pashayev is rector of the ADA University at Baku and deputy foreign minister of Azerbaijan.
This book is written as a memoir, and contains new information and many fascinating insights about the development of the CSCE and its evolution into the OSCE. But it also contains some very astute analyses of current events, based on the history of the issues, which surround them. It is, in fact, a commentary on the current situations in these regions, based on the way these situations developed. A must-read for anyone who is interested in the recent history and the current and future state of affairs in Europe, including the Caucasus, Central Asia, and what Russians call their 'Near Abroad.' (Hafiz Pashayev, rector of the ADA University, Baku, Azerbaijan)
