Great-power conflict and great-power war are still the most
dangerous risks the international community is facing today. This
edited volume investigates the feasibility of a modern day concert
of powers as a way for managing the risk of great power conflicts
in the 21st century. The volume takes its inspiration from history.
The 19th century European Concert was not only able to ensure a
period of exceptional peacefulness among the European great powers,
it also limited the scope and duration of the few wars that did
break out. The chapter authors discuss the achievements and limits
of the historical concert, define the requirements that a new
concert would have to meet, critically evaluate obstacles and risks
of the approach and indicate how a 21st century concert of powers
could complement, and fit into, the present legal and institutional
setting of global politics. This volume offers a systematic
examination of the norms and tools of the historical template and
scrutinizes these tools for their utility in our time. It will be
of great interest to a wide range of scholars and students in areas
such as International Relations, History and International Law.
