The notion that neutrality is a phenomenon only relevant to the
Cold War is false in many ways. The Cold War was about building
blocks, neutrality about staying out of them. From 1975 until the
end of the Cold War, neutral states offered mediation and good
offices and fought against the stagnation of the detente policy
especially in the framework of the CSCE. After the end of the Cold
War, neutral states became active in peace-operations outside of
military alliances. The concept of neutrality has proven time and
again that it can adapt to new situations. In many ways, small
neutral states have more room to maneuver than members of alliances
or big powers. They have more acceptance and fewer geopolitical
interests. Neutrality has been declared obsolete many times in its
long and layered history., yet it has also made many comebacks in
varying forms and contexts. Neutrality in the 21st century does not
involve to staying out but engaging. In contrast to disengagement
and staying out, engaged neutrality entails active participation in
the international security policy in general and in international
peace operations in particular. Engaged neutrality means
involvement whenever possible and staying out only if necessary.
