Europe in the Balance: Securing the Peace Won in the Cold War

This book masterfully brings into focus all of the separately debated issues that must be addressed together to secure the peace that was won in the Cold War: NATO enlargement, challenges to cohesion within the European Union, the strength of the U.S.-Europe connection, reform and stability in Eastern Europe, and Russia's role in Europe.

Christoph Bertram's Europe in the Balance provides an admirable exploration of the dilemmas that bedevil Europe and the United States in trying to imagine and foster some new set of institutional arrangements to promote stability, democracy, and prosperity in the new European scene. - from review by David P. Calleo, Dean Acheson Professor and Director of European Studies, School of Advanced International Studies, The Johns Hopkins University.
