A comprehensive assessment of post-Cold War European security in four interrelated parts. Part I examines the nature of the new security threats facing Europe; Part II considers the absence of coherent leadership; Part III examines the (euphemistically titled, according to Duke) "European Security Architecture"; and Part IV looks at developments in Central and Eastern Europe and the extent to which their security interests are or are not incorporated into existing or nascent security structures. Brown argues for the need for coherent collective leadership at the European level, the gradual phasing out of NATO, and the creation of a pan-European security structure. Annotation c.
