Neue deutsche Diplomatie?
(2015)
In der aktuellen Debatte stellt sich die Frage, ob mit einer „neuen“ deutschen Außenpolitik auch eine neue deutsche Diplomatie einhergeht oder einhergehen sollte. Berlin täte gut daran, sich auf die außenpolitischen Traditionen der Bonner Republik zu besinnen. Diese Prinzipien werden bisweilen vernachlässigt, sind aber aufgrund der allseits konstatierten gewachsenen Bedeutung Deutschlands heute aktueller denn je. Allerdings bedürfen die konkreten Instrumente der Diplomatie und ihr institutioneller Rahmen einer Überarbeitung, um den Herausforderungen gerecht zu werden, denen die Berliner Republik gegenübersteht.
Pflichtlektüre für alle, die über Deutschlands Grenzen hinaus denken
Deutschland soll international mehr Verantwortung übernehmen – an dieser Forderung muss sich die deutsche Politik neu ausrichten. Die neue Agenda heißt: Außen-, Entwicklungs- und Sicherheitspolitik gemeinsam denken. Denn nur nachhaltige Entwicklung schafft die Grundlagen für Stabilität und Sicherheit über nationale Grenzen hinweg. Das zeigt sich seit der Flüchtlingskrise stärker denn je. Die Bekämpfung der Fluchtursachen macht deutlich, wie anspruchsvoll und notwendig die neue außenpolitische Verantwortung Deutschlands ist.
Dieses Buch präsentiert Beiträge der wichtigsten Köpfe aus Politik, Wissenschaft und Praxis, liefert interessante Lesestücke zu brisanten Themen und gibt klare Handlungsempfehlungen an die Politik. Pflichtlektüre für alle, die über Deutschlands Grenzen hinaus denken.
The Munich Security Conference, founded as "Internationale Wehrkunde-Begegnung" in 1963, has evolved into the leading independent forum for security policy. Traditionally seen as a kind of transatlantic family meeting for debating NATO strategy during the Cold War, the conference has increasingly broadened its agenda and today attracts participants from across the globe. Each year, dozens of heads of state and government, ministers, and experts from different fields of security policy gather in Munich for an open exchange of ideas and policies on the most pressing international security issues - ranging from regional conflicts, international peace operations and nuclear disarmament to cyber security and environmental challenges. On the occasion of the conference's 50th anniversary in 2014, a number of prominent participants, including former and current foreign and defense ministers, reflect on the conference's history and significance, some of the major issues debated, and on key security challenges facing the international community.
La Covid-19 a ébranlé le monde en aggravant ses incertitudes géopolitiques. L’Europe et ses institutions ont été fragilisées, or plus que jamais, celle-ci doit reprendre l’initiative pour surmonter collectivement la crise et affirmer une nouvelle ambition pour que le « vieux continent » en ressorte plus fort.
Kampf der Korruption!
(2021)
There is a strong rationale for close EU-UK cooperation on security and defence after Brexit. Each side should preserve the principle of cooperation in different arrangements for different areas, from policing to foreign policy.
The EU should embrace the UK’s proposal for a treaty on intra-EU security. Because no such treaty will be ready by March 2019, each side should aim for an interim agreement extending existing arrangements until one is in place.
On foreign policy and defence, the UK should not expect a seat at the table in European bodies, including in discussions around possible CSDP operations. Instead, both sides should establish new arrangements that keep them in touch with the other’s thinking. Regular working-level exchanges rather than a treaty are the aim here, such as monthly bilaterals between the British embassy in Brussels and the PSC chair, and UKREP and the EDA chief executive.
All this is achievable but needs clear principles if it is to succeed. These include: a broad understanding of the components of European security; agreement that unique arrangements are required for a unique situation; and a commitment not to treat security like just another element within the Brexit negotiations.
From today's viewpoint, 2016 may well represent the end of the post‐Cold War era and the general assumptions that are associated with it. These include the beliefs that the United States remains a European power, guaranteeing the territorial integrity of its European NATO allies, that liberal democracy represents the political system widely seen as the only legitimate normative reference point, and that the future of the European Union will be defined by continued integration into an ‘ever closer Union’. These assumptions have been shaken to the core.
