1 'The Balkans between Paris and Berlin' Heimerl, Meurs September 2004 journalArticle 343-360 4 Journal of Southeast European & Black Sea Studies 14683857 3 Since the beginning of the 1990's, strategies concerning the Balkans have been among the key questions of European politics and therefore pivotal to the evolution of Franco-German relations. Two periods may be distinguished, the Kosovo war (March-June 1999) being the turning point. The first period was characterized by conflict in Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Kosovo, during which France and Germany were under strong pressure to act. The second phase started with the launching of the Stability Pact for Southeastern Europe in 1999. Since then the European Union, with Berlin and Paris in leading roles, has at last demonstrated the political will to assume responsibility as a regional power without having yet all of the capacities and instruments necessary. Even if Paris tends to stress the bilateral conditional aspects of European Balkan policies and Berlin the multilateral, the development of the Stability Pact has demonstrated the congruence and significance of Franco-German cooperation. 5BL4HXJ6
2 10 Denuclearisation and regional cooperation Mavrodin 2019 journalArticle Margins for Manoeuvre in Cold War Europe: The Influence of Smaller Powers This chapter discusses Romania’s initiative for creating a nuclear weapon free zone (NWFZ) in the Balkans in the late 1950s. Otherwise known as the Stoica Plan, Bucharest’s call for inter-bloc cooperation on creating a ‘zone of peace’ was the first ever such proposal of the Cold War, at a time when the global public was increasingly worried about the destructive potential of nuclear weapons. As a result, the initiative represented one of the main avenues through which the small and economically weak Balkan country could rise from obscurity to a measure of international prominence, and to therefore start widening its margins of manoeuvre within the superpower dynamic. This chapter analyses the Stoica Plan within the complex regional and global contexts that conferred Romania with the opportunity to first gain increased relevance within the socialist camp through shuttle diplomacy between China and Yugoslavia to gain support for its initiative; and, later, to obtain unprecedented global exposure by pitching the Stoica Plan within the framework of the United Nations.

3 60 Years of Diplomatic Relations between Greece and Bulgaria: Challenges and Benefits of the Reconciliation Process Kostadinova 2014 journalArticle 326-347 Südost-Europa 0722-480X 3 In 2014, Greece and Bulgaria celebrate the 60th anniversary of the 1954 restoration of diplomatic relations. The history of the Greek–Bulgarian rapprochement after decades of hostility and national rivalry represents a unique case of postwar recovery and reconciliation, comparable only to the German–French example. Indeed, the course of Greek–Bulgarian relations is particularly interesting because it often transcends the specific aspects of bilateral developments and takes account of broader geopolitical processes, such as the conflicting US and Soviet stances on key Cold War issues or the energy rivalry in the post-1989 period. Using the method of diachronic analysis, the article gives an overview of the development of Greek–Bulgarian relations, as it seeks to outline the major achievements of the past and the possible challenges for the future.

4 A Balkan nuclear-weapons-free zone Andrikos 1985/06//Jun/Jul1985 journalArticle 29-31 41 Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists 00963402 6 The establishment of the Balkan peninsula as a nuclear-free zone would have several important strategic, political, and economic implications, but despite much local Balkan support the movement has gone no further than discussion and it is unlikely that such a buffer zone between the two superpower blocs would ever meet with US or Soviet approval. 83ZQ9Q6P
5 A lost chance for Balkan cooperation? The Romanian view on 'regional micro-détente', 1969—75 Stanciu August 2019 journalArticle 421-439 19 Cold War History A lost chance for Balkan cooperation? 14682745 3 The Soviet-American détente raised many concerns among small states that Cold War bipolarity could be consolidated and that the superpowers' dialogue was just another form of excluding other countries from having a say in international affairs. In order to neutralise the effects of bipolarity, many European governments advocated in favour of a multilateral détente. This paper argues that a similar process occurred in Eastern Europe and analyses the Romanian proposals for Balkan cooperation in the context of what was called a 'regional micro-détente'. Bucharest called for a multilateral high-level meeting of all Balkan states with the aim of devising formulas for improving cooperation and limiting the influence of the superpowers in the region. As Romania was engaged in serious divergences with the Soviet Union and also had good relations with the Chinese at the height of the Sino-Soviet polemic, Moscow regarded the Romanian proposals as directed against its interests in the peninsula and opposed it. In spite of its lack of results, the Romanian project demonstrates that the commitment to multilateral détente existed on both sides of the Iron Curtain and reveals the increasing fragmentation of the Communist bloc in the context of détente and the CSCE process.

11 Balkan Security: What Security? Whose Security? Economides September 2003 journalArticle 105-129 3 Journal of Southeast European & Black Sea Studies Balkan Security 14683857 3 Yugoslavia's wars of succession have posed a threat to security on a number of levels, ranging from individual security to group, national, and international security. This article discusses the types of security threats that have emerged consequent to conflicts in southeastern Europe since 1990 and the real or perceived security threats that have prompted the Western-led "international community" to intervene militarily. Much has been made of the humanitarian concerns that resulted in military intervention in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Kosovo. While there were indeed humanitarian concerns, involved in military intervention, the main driving force behind military action was primarily the concern for the protection of the interests, be they national or international, of the interventionary states.

27 Contested Borders, Contested Identity: The Case of Regionalism in Southeast Europe Bechev January 2004 journalArticle 77-95 4 Journal of Southeast European & Black Sea Studies Contested Borders, Contested Identity 14683857 1 Regionalism has become one of the prevailing trends in world politics. Regions are seen as proceeding from socioeconomic linkages but also from shared notions of belonging. There are various approaches to regional identity. While some focus on common culture, language, and historical experience, others view regions as types of communities or as political constructs. This article takes up the latter view and argues that the redefinition of regional identity exemplified by the substitution of the term "Balkans" with "Southeast Europe" has played a crucial role in the cooperation initiatives since the mid-1990's. It explores schemes such as the South Eastern European Cooperation Process (SEECP) and the Stability Pact for Southeast Europe. The Southeast European project has been an attempt to overcome the area's marginalization vis-à-vis the West. The emergence of a coherent regional identity was inhibited by the impossibility of drawing clear-cut borders to demarcate Southeast Europe. 6Y7QS2S2

In the interwar era, the Romanian Nicolae Titulescu was the region's foremost supporter of the League of Nations, the Briand-Kellogg Pact, and collective security to defend the interests of Greece, Albania, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, and Romania. After World War II and the establishment of new governments throughout the region, Romania again provided the impetus for multilateral cooperation by regional governments and nongovernmental organizations in such disparate fields as economic development, research in the physical, mathematical, and social sciences, and the establishment of a zone free of nuclear and chemical weapons. 6QEB2SYP

30 Coopération Balkanique Et Journalisme Vasev September 1975 journalArticle 23-26 Balkan cooperation and journalism. 03241645 4 Discusses the growth of cooperation among journalists from the Balkans, initially stimulated by the Bulgarian journalists' union. The Bulgarians were soon in contact with Romanian and Greek colleagues, and later with those from Turkey and Cyprus. A series of meetings, 1965-75, offered a forum for discussion of the problems of the profession and the improvement of standards. The major advantages in closer cooperation have arisen from the mass media's ability to present firsthand impressions of political leaders and events throughout Southeast Europe. MAGLHNFE

The founding of the Institute for Balkan Studies in Sofia in 1964 represents a new stage of development of the discipline. The first International Conference for Balkan Studies, held in 1966 in Sofia, demonstrated the nature of Balkan Studies as a conscious scientific discipline. Primary research areas in the discipline are Balkan social, economic, and political development, national liberation movement, cultural history, and inter-Balkan relations. Publications of the Institute are distributed as follows: 40% general Balkan themes, 40% inter-Balkan relations, and 20% historical monographs. URC5CNC8

This article reviews Greece’s approach to the region during the Cold War period and especially since then by attempting to explain why the region holds such a high priority for Greece and how the country and its foreign policy elite deal with it. The need for having a domestic consensus, lining up policy with that of the European Union, working with the United States and keeping relations with Turkey on an even keel are some of the conclusions the author draws.

Notwithstanding pressing domestic and security concerns,détenteand, in particular, the spirit of the CSCE process significantly influenced Greek Prime Minister Constantinos Karamanlis’ decision to instigate Balkan co-operation on a multilateral and not just on a bilateral level. The “Helsinki spirit” opened a window of opportunity for regional Powers from different blocs to come together. Despite its limited results, the political significance of the Athens Conference lay in the fact that it took place at all in view of Cold War realities and inter-Balkan rivalries. HVMKLI6S

54 PASOK’s Foreign Policy Course Towards the Socialist Countries in the 1980s Stergiou 2021 bookSection 137-173 en Stergiou Andreas In contrast to other Western European countries in which the Eighties were characterised by the cultural dominance of the “New Right”, Greek politics was dominated in the 1980s by the rise of the Greek Socialist Party (PASOK) which came to power in October 1981. Greece’s foreign and security policy towards the Soviet Bloc in the 1980s was for the most part a continuation of the Ostpolitik pursued by Greece’s conservative governments in the 1970s. An important component of the new era in the external relations of the country was the restrictive framework within which it played out. Contrary to the 1974–1981 period, the Greek Socialist era coincided with the hot phase of the Cold War in the first half of the 1980s, as well as with Greece’s reintegration into the NATO military command and accession to the European Community. In this framework, Greece’s new Prime Minister Andreas Papandreou’s opening to the Eastern European countries was not as skilful as Karamanlis’ policy. While Greece’s Ostpolitik in the 1970s did not precipitate any clash with the Western camp, Athens’ very active analogous policy in the 1980s burdened Greece’s relationship with its European and transatlantic allies. With his unprecedented opening to the Socialist camp and his radical anti-Western rhetoric and demagoguery, Papandreou became the “enfant terrible” within the Western Alliance. His resolute stance towards Turkey in a period of dramatic escalation of the Greek-Turkish conflict threatened to disrupt the balance of power in the Eastern Mediterranean, terrifying the NATO Alliance. In fact, US officials appeared by the end of the decade, after the two countries came again to the verge of a war, to have come to the conclusion that Greece and Turkey could hardly become US allies in a NATO engagement in South-Eastern Europe. On the other hand, the Soviet Bloc’s policy towards Greece since 1974 resembled that towards Turkey. It was characterised by economic benevolence, patience, gradual building of confidence and skilful exploitation of Greek disillusionment and dissatisfaction with NATO.

According to the official report: at 2 am, one hour before execution time, we went to the cell of the accused, informing him that the time had come to expiate his guilt.

In the interwar period, the Balkan Entente had been a political agreement with cultural-scientific overtones. The latter have led to governmental and nongovernmental bilateral and multilateral relations. In addition to literary, musical, and artistic cooperation, Romania has had scientific and technical agreements with Albania since 1953, Yugoslavia since 1956, Bulgaria since 1962, Turkey since 1966, and Greece since 1972. Between 1965 and 1985, Romania has signed 28 bilateral agreements with Yugoslavia, 24 with Bulgaria, 22 with Turkey, 21 with Greece, and two with Albania. IE2X5VEA

Romania concluded bilateral agreements with most neighboring states, emphasizing mutual respect for national independence. Attempts to secure multistate cooperation in the region met with increasing success, though Greece and Turkey were slower to respond. The accomplishment of unbroken peaceful development in the Balkans for 30 years demonstrates, on a small scale, what international understanding can achieve. 127 notes. 7CK4ZHMG
72 SERBIA AND THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY BEFORE 1989 - HISTORY FORGOTTEN. Banchev April 2019 journalArticle 212-225 55 Balkan Studies / Etudes Balkaniques 2 The future and the obstacles faced by the relations between Serbia and the European Union are subject of many studies. An interesting fact is that most of these studies lack analysis on the historic experience gained when Serbia was part of Yugoslavia. Even recent European publications and handbooks do not mention the longstanding cooperation with Yugoslavia before 1989. This silence is completely undeserved. Yugoslavia has a long and successful collaboration with the European Economic Community created in 1958. The relations between Serbia and the EEC follow and are synchronized with the process of integration with Western Europe. The relationship between the EEC and Yugoslavia can be divided into four phases. The first phase is from 1958 to 1968, the second phase is from 1968 to 1976, the third phase is from 1976 to 1989 and the last - after 1989. Concrete steps have been taken, but there was no historic time for Yugoslavia to join the European Community. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] E85THN36

87 The Balkans and the Common European Home Grigorova December 1989 journalArticle 3-20 25 Balkan Studies / Etudes Balkaniques 03241645 4 The Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe held in Helsinki, Finland, during August 1975, outlined strategies for the construction of a common European community based on democratic ideals, military disarmament, international economic cooperation, concern for human rights, and ecological awareness. Because of the complex nature of international relations among the countries of the Balkan peninsula, localized forms of these strategies needed to be devised for the Balkan nations to be incorporated into the larger European network. Political, economic, and cultural opportunities were to be used to produce qualitative changes in Balkan relations and to bind the countries more closely together. SAW4HTD2

Given the traditions of European rivalries in the historical Balkans, the Yugoslav conflict presented the emergent European defense and security policies with a particularly demanding test. This article is a brief and tentative examination of the difficulties encountered by the EU in its pacifying efforts in the Yugoslav crisis and of the prospects for future crisis prevention and crisis management. A number of conditions have allowed national foreign policies to take precedence over the pursuit of coherent EU policies, and these conditions are unlikely to change significantly in the foreseeable future. The EU's role in preventing and regulating conflict on its periphery will depend on 1) the institutionalization of mechanisms that will prevent or restrain the "re-nationalization" of European foreign policies, and 2) the outcomes of internal EU debates about relations deepening and widening.

While many countries entertained (and still hold) high hopes for political and economic cooperation, complications from the changes in the region's political makeup after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, along with long-standing political disputes and higher-priority international affiliations have hindered the BSEC's progress.

97 The Ostpolitik in the Context of the Country’s Multidimensional Foreign Policy in the 1970s Stergiou 2021 bookSection 115-135 en Stergiou Andreas Greece’s comprehensive opening to the Communist world began in 1975, after the restoration of parliamentarism and the Cyprus tragedy in the Summer of 1974. The improvement of Turkish-Soviet relations since the mid-1960s and the dramatic deterioration of the Greek-Turkish relations, while Greece was not a member of the NATO military structure, were the main drivers of the new foreign policy course. Greece’s withdrawal from the NATO integrated military command as a reaction against “Alliance inertia” during the Turkish invasion in Cyprus in July and August 1974, was a seminal move, albeit not a well thought out one. The dissatisfaction with allies, especially the naive perception that NATO had failed to guarantee Greek security against Turkish aggression, ending up in Greece’s withdrawal from NATO, increased anti-Americanism and affected Greek society’s perceptions of global politics. The well resonated demand for more independence from the United States and a multidimensional foreign policy dovetailed with Prime Minister Konstantinos Karamanlis’s new security concept. In the context of the new multidimensional foreign policy, an active Ostpolitik was regarded as a complement to the then main foreign policy objective of the country, the accession to the European Community. Apart from it, the escalation of Greek-Turkish tensions rendered it imperative for Greece to ensure the neutrality of the Communist Balkan countries in the event of a war. As Greece was in great need of diplomatic support in its confrontation with Turkey on Cyprus and the Aegean, Karamanlis envisaged the possibility of a Balkan cooperation as a counteract to the Turkish assertive policy. Against this background and by looking carefully at the meetings, agreements and diplomatic moves Greece undertook in this period towards the various Communist countries, it becomes clear that almost all of them took place immediately after analogous Turkish moves. Athens endeavoured to ensure that Turkey did not gain more advantages in its relations with the Soviet Bloc than Greece, that, in turn, would frustrate Athens’s strategy to counterbalance Turkish aggression through new Alliances.

Special attention is given to the roles that NATO, the European Community, and the Western Economic Union will play in the future. It includes a revealing discussion of how and why the Yugoslav Federation collapsed and what the future holds for that embattled area. Part One focuses on the problems of domestic change in the Balkans, including the difficulties of transition from authoritarian rule to democracy. Part Two is devoted to regional security problems, and Part Three examines the role of external actors and institutions in enhancing Balkan security. 6MPWNVEA

106 The World and Balkan Significance of the Reversal in Eastern Europe After 1989 Berov March 1992 journalArticle 3-11 28 Balkan Studies / Etudes Balkaniques 03241645 1 Explores the changes in the former Soviet bloc countries and Yugoslavia in terms of reasons for the collapse of Communist regimes in the late 1980's, the question of whether socialism (as opposed to the Stalinist system) was discredited, and the extent of economic change since 1989. While political, social, and economic conditions vary among the countries, common trends are evident in the failure of the socialist economic system and the moral bankruptcy of totalitarian political regimes. The task of implementing economic change is complex and varies according to national conditions; however, a movement toward the neoliberal market economy is evident. The political and economic changes provide conditions for better relations among the former Communist states and new opportunities for economic cooperation, and have negated the potential for the Balkans to be a point of collision of great power interests.

110 Together but Apart: Balkan Historians, the Global South, and UNESCO's History of Humanity, 1978–1989 Iacob November 2018 journalArticle 245-278 45 East Central Europe Together but Apart 00943037 2/3 The article analyzes the involvement of Southeast European historians in UNESCO's History of Humanity: Scientific and Cultural Development , the second attempt of the organization at drafting a world history. It is a case study of a successful epistemic internationalization of regional and national narratives from the Balkans on a global stage. It is argued that this story is premised on the activity of the International Association of Southeast European Studies (AIESEE—created in 1963 with UNESCO sponsorship), which functioned as the preexistent international milieu of conceptual, institutional, and personnel alignments. However, regional academic cooperation was dependent on the political context in the Balkans since the end of the seventies. Individual regimes employed scholars as experts representing these countries in this UNESCO project. In addition, the analysis also emphasizes the similarities and cross-fertilizations between Global South and Southeast European historians' self-affirmations in the context of shifting narratives about humanity, cultures, and civilizations within UNESCO. However, while the "Third World" wanted to shatter Eurocentrism as the South challenged the North, the Southeast wished to affirm its Europeanness by breaking the Western and Soviet perceived monopoly on Europe-talk. Balkan historians' anti-hegemonic association with Global South peers targeted de-marginalization within the confines of Europe. The article underlines that a full account of local narratives and phenomena should be examined in the context of the intersecting stories of the Cold War, decolonization, and globalization. H69RA5VQ

The article examines the interaction of Andreas Papandreou's socialist government's foreign policy, developments in the country's political culture and national frames of reference, and the unfolding drama of the nuclear crisis of the 1980s. While subscribing to an international cause, papandreou framed the policy of peace in ardent nationalist terms that involved renegotiation of the american bases on greek soil, relations with nato, balkan regional schemes for nuclear-weapons-free zones, and international initiatives with the third world.

113 Turkish-Greek balance: A key to peace and cooperation in the Balkans Turan, Barlas Winter 1998 journalArticle 469 32 East European Quarterly Turkish-Greek balance 00128449 4 Discusses the ways in which Greece and Turkey have maintained peace between themselves since the 1920's by maintaining a strategic balance. This balance was eroded in the 1950's over Cyprus. The result has been the emergence of a whole series of problems between the two countries. Problems relating to NATO and the islands of the Aegean have been the most difficult. Peace has been maintained by Greco-Turkish cooperation in spheres transcending their regional disputes (e.g., joint assistance through NATO in Bosnia) since the end of the Cold War. CPPVWRXN
