"At the moment, the revision of security policy and the formation
of a new consensus to support it are still at an early stage of
development. The idea of comprehensive security cooperation among
the major military establishments to form an inclusive
international security arrangement has been only barely
acknowledged and is only partially developed. The basic principle
of cooperation has been proclaimed in general terms in the Paris
Charter issued in November of 1990. Important implementing
provisions have been embodied in the Strategic Arms Reductions
Talks (START), Conventional Forces in Europe (CFE), and
Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) treaties. Except for the
regulation of U.S. and Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS)
strategic forces, however, these arrangements apply only to the
European theater and even there have not been systematically
developed. The formation of a new security order requires that
cooperative theaters of military engagement be systematically
developed. Clearly that exercise will stretch the minds of all
those whose thinking about security has been premised on
confrontational methods. Nonetheless, such a stretching is
unavoidable. The new security problems are driven by powerful
forces, reshaping the entire international context. They impose
starkly different requirements. They will deflect even the
impressive momentum of U.S. military traditions. The eventual
outcome is uncertain. It turns upon political debates yet to be
held, consensus judgements yet to form, and events and their
implications yet to unfold. Fundamental reconceptualization of
security policy is a necessary step in the right direction, and it
is important to get on with it. Getting on with it means defining
the new concept of cooperative security, identifying the trends
that motivate it, outlining its implications for practical policy
action, and acknowledging its constraints. These tasks are the
purpose of this essay. "
