Die KSZE und die Grenzen internationaler Zusammenarbeit: Warum ein neues „Helsinki“ ein Luftschloss ist

  • Werner Schönleber

摘要

This article examines the origins and legacy of the 1975 CSCE in Europe in light of current calls for a “CSCE 2.0.” It argues that the CSCE was not a binding security system but a product of Cold War conditions, whose strength lay in political dialogue rather than legal commitments. The Helsinki Final Act initiated a process that culminated in the 1990 Charter of Paris. Its successor, the OSCE, was unable to preserve this consensus. A new Helsinki process therefore remains illusory, though historically instructive.
