Inhaltsangabe

When the Helsinki Final Act was signed in 1975, no one anticipated the extraordinary impact it would have in undermining Communist rule in Eastern Europe and bringing down the Berlin Wall. Professor Korey's pioneering study explores both the developments in the Helsinki Process that led to this historic transformation and the leadership role of the United States, which proved central to its success. But this leadership was initially lacking, and The Promises We Keep discusses both the enactment and impact of this remarkable policy turnaround.
The Helsinki Process is by no means at an end. Professor Korey also examines the xenophobic nationalisms tearing at the fabric of European society and posing new and frightening human rights challenges.
