Summary / Abstract (Note) | This article investigates not the causes of the end of the Cold War but the legacy of its ending for international politics in the post-Cold War era. To do so, this essay offers the concept of 'settlement architecture' as a way of understanding the political resolution that follows a historical moment of thoroughgoing transformation, of which the end of the Cold War was a prime example. In particular, it explores both the nature of the settlement architecture advanced successfully by Washington and Bonn in 1990, namely prefabricated multilateralism, and the consequences of that settlement. |
