One of the most striking developments in recent international politics has been the significant increase in security cooperation among European Union states. Seth Jones argues that this increase in cooperation, in areas such as economic sanctions, weapons production and collaboration among military forces, has occurred because of the changing structure of the international and regional systems. Since the end of the Cold War, the international system has shifted from a bipolar to a unipolar structure characterized by United States dominance. This has caused EU states to cooperate in the security realm to increase their ability to project power abroad and to decrease reliance on the US. Furthermore, European leaders in the early 1990s adopted a 'binding' strategy to ensure long-term peace on the continent, suggesting that security cooperation is caused by a desire to preserve peace in Europe whilst building power abroad.

1973, l’« Année de l’Europe ». 1983, l’« Année des euromissiles ». Les deux dates délimitent une décennie cruciale pour l’Alliance atlanti­que. En 1973, elle tente de s’adapter aux changements profonds inter­venus depuis sa création. Mais doit-elle le taire selon la vision de Henry Kissinger ou celle de Michel Jobert ? Le débat est à peine entamé que le premier « choc » pétrolier détourne les démocraties vers d’autres prio­rités. Renforcée par l’esquisse d’une coopération trilatérale, leur solida­rité n’en est pas moins ébranlée par le retour des problèmes militaires et par leurs divergences sur la détente. Aussi, loin de les rapprocher, l’invasion de l’Afghanistan tend-elle plutôt à les diviser. En 1983, les grandes querelles se sont un peu apaisées et les Pershing-II et les mis­siles de croisière américaine ont pu être déployés. Mais rien n’est vrai­ment réglé. Et l’histoire de l’Occident est encore dominée par toutes sor­tes d’incertitudes (sur le leadership d’une Amérique en déclin relatif, sur la place de l’Allemagne, sur la stratégie atomique) apparues ou renfor­cées au cours de ces dix années. Fondé sur le dépouillement des principales sources disponibles et sur plusieurs dizaines d’interviews (dont une grande partie réalisée lors d’un séjour, en juillet 1983, au Wilson Center de Washington), cet ouvrage recourt à une approche historique pour éclairer l’actualité.

The idea that states and the international community have a responsibility to protect populations at risk has framed internationalist debates about conflict prevention, humanitarian aid, peacekeeping and territorial administration since 2001. This book situates the responsibility to protect concept in a broad historical and jurisprudential context, demonstrating that the appeal to protection as the basis for de facto authority has emerged at times of civil war or revolution - the Protestant revolutions of early modern Europe, the bourgeois and communist revolutions of the following centuries and the revolution that is decolonisation. This analysis, from Hobbes to the UN, of the resulting attempts to ground authority on the capacity to guarantee security and protection is essential reading for all those seeking to understand, engage with, limit or critique the expansive practices of international executive action authorised by the responsibility to protect concept.
