The Operational Role of the OSCE in South-Eastern Europe

’...a very useful contribution to the development of the know-how for making culture of prevention operative. One can start reading this book at any one...of the articles. Those interested in the situation in South-Eastern Europe and/or in the problems of conflict prevention and crisis management will end up reading them all. The articles provide not only insights into complexities of crisis situations in this part of Europe, but there is something to learn from this book for the OSCE...[and] for all who want to contribute to a more efficient culture of prevention.’ Dr Wilhelm Höynck, CSCE/OSCE Secretary General (1993-96) ’...provides an in-depth examination of the efforts of an international organisation to contribute to regional stability in the volatile Balkans during the 1990s. It will be essential reading for students and academics in the fields of international relations and conflict resolution and specialists in South-Eastern Europe.’ European Access
