This book illustrates the OSCE institutional system and critically evaluates its ability to cope with an evolving European security order. It extensively covers the three-fold core of the OSCE: human rights, peaceful settlement of disputes, and peace-keeping. In doing so, it includes discussion of the High Commissioner of National Minorities, long-term missions, peace-keeping instruments and OSCE relations with the United Nations and European security organizations, the Valletta mechanism, and the OSCE Court of Conciliation and Arbitration.
<p class=copymedium><b>The OSCE in the Maintenance of Peace and Security</b> benefits from diverse perspectives via the efforts of lawyers, career diplomats, international relations scholars, and international officials.
