Beskrivning

This comprehensive collection of eight essays addresses the post war foreign policy of Switzerland. The essays deal with a diverse range of issues: general foreign policy and neutrality; defence and security policy; relations with the United Nations; the Swiss policy of good offices; relations with the International Committee of the Red Cross; Swiss human rights policy; arms control and non-proliferation and foreign economic policy. Through these essays, the dualistic nature of Swiss foreign policy, being at once both strongly internationalist and strongly unilateralist, is examined.
