Keens-Soper, Maurice
Europe in the World: The Persistence of Power Politics
xiv, 205pp. What role can and should Europe play in the world? This analysis of international politics offers an exposition of the persistent features of power politics which Europe, in the form of the EU, should increasingly have to acknowledge, or adapt to. Using the resources of both political philosophy and diplomatic history, the book urges that the internal developments of western Europe over the last 50 years are making a common standpoint in foreign affairs increasingly necessary. Europe, it asserts, cannot remain preoccupied by international affairs when its future depends on adjusting to an international order over which it has only limited control. Clean Copy

Dukes, Paul (ed.)
Russia and Europe (A History Today Book)
In the 1990s, the USSR's relationship with Europe is an urgent and important question not only for historians, but for everyone concerned with world affairs. For centuries there have been passionate advocates of the association of Russia with Europe, and of its essential apartness - of "Holy Russia" or of a material antithesis. In this collection of essays, historians from Europe, America and the Soviet Union examine this complex and paradoxical theme. Used
