Description

Summary
As both a scholar and a practitioner of international politics, DePorte has a keen sense of policy, of power relations, and of adjustments or discrepancies between them. His elegant, convincing argument, organized around the sources of stability of the postwar European order, provides a useful framework within which the costs, benefits, and trade-offs of the European situation can be understood, evaluated - and, of course, fought and wept over. - Dinah Louda, Harvard International Review.
