From the mid-1960s to the mid-1970s West German foreign policy
underwent substantial transformations: from bilateral to
multilateral, from reactive to proactive. The Conference on
Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE) was an ideal setting for
this evolution, enabling the Federal Republic to take the lead
early on in Western preparations for the conference and to play a
decisive role in the actual East-West negotiations leading to the
Helsinki Final Act of 1975. Based on extensive original research of
recently released documents, spanning more than fifteen archives in
eight countries, this study is a substantial contribution to
scholarly discussions on the history of detente, the CSCE and West
German foreign policy. The author stresses the importance of
looking beyond the bipolarity of the Cold War decades and
emphasizes the interconnectedness of European integration and
European detente. He highlights the need to place the genesis of
the CSCE conference in its historical context rather than looking
at it through the prism of the events of 1989, and shows that the
bilateral and multilateral elements (Ostpolitik and the CSCE) were
parallel rather than successive phenomena, parts of the same
complex process and in constant interaction with each other.
