OSCE Yearbook Vol. 13
Content:
The OSCE Yearbook is the only independent academic publication dedicated to the Organization, its work, and the issues that concern it. The 2007 edition contains another broad selection of insightful contributions by academics, diplomats, and practitioners. It begins by considering two “Burning Issues” that greatly concerned the Organization during the year: Russia’s suspension of the CFE Treaty and potential consequences of the failure of efforts to resolve the Kosovo status question. The special focus section on tolerance and non-discrimination includes a discussion by the OSCE Secretary General of the Organization’s contribution to the UN “Alliance of Civilizations” initiative. There is also a review of the history of the OSCE’s engagement in this field, a consideration of religion and the “dialogue of civilizations”, and contributions on anti-Semitism, discrimination against Muslims, policing hate crime, and the work of ODIHR. States whose relations with the Organization are in the spotlight this year include Romania, Montenegro, and Kazakhstan, while further contributions look at the field presences in Croatia, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and at the Organization’s work in South-eastern Europe and Central Asia as a whole.
