ISBN: 9041103503 ISBN-13: 9789041103505 Publisher: Brill Nijhoff OUR PRICE: $372.40 Product Type: Hardcover Published: December 1996 Annotation: This new work examines three important case-studies of international conference diplomacy concerning military security, as presented at the semi-universal Geneva negotiations on the Chemical Weapons Convention (1992), the regional Stockholm conference on Confidence- and Security-Building Measures (CSBMs, 1986) and the Vienna bloc-to-bloc talks between East and West on Mutual and Balanced Force Reductions (MBFR, 1989). The authors describe in great detail the course and results of these conferences, and make a comparison of the negotiating processes before and after the abolition of the Warsaw Treaty Organization after the political events of 1989 in Eastern Europe. The central terms underlying this study are defined within a newly developed comprehensive theoretical framework that is used to analyze the three negotiating processes. In the final chapter a number of concrete recommendations are made which aim to increase the efficacy and efficiency of future multilateral negotiations. |
