This book examines the effectiveness of multilateralism in ensuring
collective security and, in particular, the EU's role in this
process. In 1992, shortly after the end of the Cold War, a Security
Council Summit in New York reaffirmed the salience of the system of
collective security and stated the determination of the Heads of
State to maintain it as the prime international instrument for
preserving peace. Twenty years later, however, the record of
collective security as well as of multilateralism has not been very
encouraging. The system of collective security, as enshrined in the
United Nations (UN) Charter, failed repeatedly to accomplish its
mandate in the 1990s and has led to controversial debates in the
United States and Europe that reached a climax during the Iraq
crisis in 2002/03. The volume draws upon both theoretical and
empirical research to answer the following core questions: What are
the reasons that have made multilateralism either effective or
ineffective in the field of peacekeeping, peace preservation and
peacebuilding? How can multilateralism be made more effective? How
can attempts made by Europe to render UN multilateralism in the
security area more efficient be assessed? This book will be of much
interest to students of peacebuilding/peacekeeping, EU policy, the
UN, security studies and IR in general.
