| Summary/Abstract |
Since the end of the Cold War, the idea of reviving concert diplomacy as a means to manage order and security in a reunited Europe has been repeatedly discussed in theory,Footnote1 but never pursued in practice. While some more limited forms of concerted crisis management have been tried,Footnote2 the broader task of maintaining continental order has been left to a network of ostensibly “interlocking institutions and relationships” including formal multilateral organizations such as the OSCE, NATO and the EU, as well as various forms of more or less institutionalized cooperation like NATO’s Partnership for Peace (PfP), the NATO-Russia-Council (NRC), and the EU’s Neighborhood Policy (ENP).
