Fall issue of Transatlantic "Internationale Politik"

Patrick Wagner Redaktion Internationale Politik
Deutsche Gesellschaft für Auswärtige Politik (DGAP)

    The fall issue of Transatlantic Internationale Politik focuses on the EU after the French Non, transatlantic issues, Central Asia, ramifications of the Armenian Massacre, and Israel and Germany.

    Elder statesman GIULIANO AMATO says it is Europe that has been criticized, not its constitution, in the French and Dutch referenda--but that the EU's life must go on. Veteran macroeconomist DANIEL GROS and STEFANO MICOSSI propose precise ways in which the EU budget should be made fit for the 21st century--and say it wouldn't cost more. DB's head of research NORBERT WALTER says that the euro may be everbody's scapegoat--but the little fellow is doing just fine. Harvard's RICHARD ROSECRANCE says that European mergers trump US acquisitions. Batory Foundation President ALEKSANDER SMOLAR looks back in some wonder at just how well the new Central European democracies have snuggled into EU membership.

    In transatlantic issues, NATO's top civilian planner MICHAEL RÜHLE asks for a more political NATO. Dimap's MICHAEL MERTES suggests that some unexpected alliances can develop in the Christian-Islamist-secularist triangle. Weltwoche's RICHARD HERZINGER argues that Germans are so upset with America because they are seeking to define themselves against their foster father.

    In looking at Central Asia, the head of the Slovenian Institute for Strategic Studies, BORUT GRGIC, explains what is happening in Kyrgyzstan after street demonstrations chased the old president out and elected a rival. The Executive Director of the Washington-based Institute for New Democracies, MARGARITA ASSENOVA, explains how President Karimov in neighboring Uzbekistan, by contrast, could ignore the protesters (and insurgents who had civilians as human shields) and still stay in power. Israel's top specialist on Iran, DAVID MENASHRI, analyzes the victory of the old Islamic Revolution conservatives in the Iranian presidential election.

    Berlin journalist ROLF HOSFELD recounts the vengeance of the Armenian "Nemesis" on Turkish ringleaders of the Armenian massacre in 1915/16, and notes how the first seed that led to the UN Genocide Convention half a century later got planted. Ruhr University Bochum's BERNA PEKESEN notes that, despite continued official Turkish denials that any massacre occurred, Turkish academics too are beginning to ask why and how the persecutions happened.

    Finally, Israeli Ambassador to Germany SHIMON STEIN regrets that, while Germany is a bridgebuilder between the EU and Israel, the old taboos against antisemitism are now weakening. And long-time FAZ correspondent and now CDU/CSU adviser KARL FELDMEYER analyzes the Bundeswehr's evolution away from its original mission of home defense to become a (small) interventionist force.
