  • Estonia's Integration Into International Organisations — from the Viewpoint
    Jaanika Erne LL.M., M.A. Contractual Consultant, European Union Electronic Information Service, European Documentation Centre, University of Tartu Estonia’s Integration into International Organisations — from the Viewpoint of Security The Republic of Estonia has been a full member state of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation since 29 March 2004, Estonia is the full member state of the European Union since 1 May 2004. These developments are in testimony of a huge step towards a free, whole and peaceful Europe.*1 8or the acceding states, acces- sion to both these organisations means supranational integration in security issues, as has also meant the accession to other security organisations, such as the Western European Union (WEU), the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) and the United Nations (UN). 8rom historical viewpoint as a small state that has been occupied many times security guarantees are essential to Estonia. The pursuit of independence, territorial integrity and cultural identity has accompanied the development of the Estonian nation. Although the author sees neither military nor political threats aim- ing to change Estonias internal or external policies today or in the near future, she is aware of and under- stands that the state must be ready to combat such threats as economic, social and environmental risks, international crime, and terrorism. Considering the previous, the purpose of this article is to estimate whether the accession of the Republic of Estonia to supranational organisations guarantees higher security in the region. Considering this purpose, the author has divided the article into three main sections. The first section gives an overview about the interrelationship of those security organisations in which Estonia participates.

  • Afterword: Art and Politics on the Borderland
    Afterword: Art and Politics on the Borderland The writing of this book was prompted by the endeavour to view the entire Baltic Sea region as an integral whole, discarding the beliefs rooted in previ- ous historiography and highlighting visual sources and the cultural landscape. While at the outset of this study, the author was still visited by doubts about the potential of research based on visual sources when applied to political history, a feeling of certainty became prevalent when the analysis of Danish churches was followed by that of churches in Sweden, as patterns started to recur, and a revision of the Gotland material after defending my doctoral thesis only added to my optimism. In my dissertation, I had concentrated only on the island’s churches and drawn outward parallels proceeding from that, but in the present work the entire Baltic Sea region was to be addressed with equal deliberation – on the one hand, this demanded deep concentration on the analysed objects, and on the other hand the general supra-regional developments had to be kept in mind. This approach is time-consuming and can even be frustrating as it requires a steady focus on the buildings of each specific region, reconstruction of cultural landscapes of the period, as well as delving into the state of existing research written in several different languages. However, there comes a point when the sources open up for supra-regional interpretation. When addressing a single region, the risk of over-interpretation is consid- erable, as the arsenal of methods an art historian can use for the research of Romanesque churches is limited.

Since the restoration of independence in 1991, Estonia's policies have consistently aimed at the restoration of economic, social, political and cultural ties with our western neighbours. We have sought to restore our place in the family of democratic European nations. Estonia's application to join the EU is underpinned by a number of motivating factors. Estonia shares the basic values and principles upon which the Union has been established and wishes to preserve and defend these values in co-operation with the Union.

  • Institute Note
    Antonio MISSIROLI Dov LYNCH Dimitrios TRIANTAPHYLLOU Martin ORTEGA Judy BATT INSTITUTE NOTE The enlarged EU and its new neighbours: new security challenges Paris, 5-6 June 2003 The Conference was conceived as a first occasion to assess the impact of enlargement on CFSP - now that ten candidates are about to accede to the EU – in terms not only of foreign policy interests but also neighbourhood issues, stretching from the Baltic to the Adriatic, from the Aegean to the Mediterranean Sea. Accordingly, the list of participants included many invitees from the acceding countries, and the programme was conceived also in order to encourage them to take the floor on an equal footing with invitees from the current member states. The former Estonian Foreign Minister Toomas Hendrik Ilves gave a much-appreciated keynote speech. I. Between stabilisation and integration The first session was expected to set the general framework for the discussion by stressing a) the evolution of the approach of the EC/EU to its (ever-changing) neighbourhood, whereby direct integration has gradually won the day as both a security policy “by other means” and a way to stabilise the immediate proximity of the Community/Union; and b) the varying and multi-faceted nature of the new neighbourhood(s) of the enlarged Union, which may or may not require more differentiated policies – differentiated by area and/or by country. In this respect, many distinct neighbourhoods (or rather proximities) were taken into consideration: 1) an ‘Eastern dimension’, whose peculiarity is that
