New Trends in International Politics in Europe since the Kosovo War.

这一研究揭示了科索沃战争以来欧洲国际政治的几个新动向：一是科索沃战争加速了欧盟东扩，使欧盟对欧洲国际政治产生重大影响。欧盟不断深化的挑战，如制定《欧洲宪法条约》的必要性，已经变得紧迫。其次，民主、法治、尊重基本人权和保护少数群体的权利在欧洲大陆被公认为共同的价值观，冲突后的国家建设需要遵守这些价值观。在巴尔干国家的国家建设过程中，欧安组织、欧盟和联合国等国际机构的成功是通过介入各国内政、推动民主国家重建作为冲突后和平进程的一部分和预防性外交而取得的。第三，与美国的单边主义相比，美国的军事优势(硬实力)引发了多边主义，欧洲国家在和平进程中倾向于以软实力为核心的多边主义。因此，两者之间的不和谐变得更加明显。在共同外交和安全政策(CFCP)的发展过程中，欧盟的扩张也导致了与北约的竞争。第四，欧洲国家的内政对各国外交产生了很大影响。因此，有必要在新框架的基础上审查内政和外交之间的联系。最后，由于这些新趋势已经受到国际政治缺陷的影响，例如9-11事件和伊拉克战争，它们已经远远超出了科索沃之后的阶段。

This research reveals several new trends of international politics in Europe since the Kosovo war.First, the Kosovo war accelerated the eastern enlargement of the EU, resulting in the EU having a significant impact on international politics in Europe. The challenges of a deepening EU, such as the necessity to formulate the European Constitutional Treaty, have become urgent.Second, as democracy, the rule of law, respect for basic human rights, and protection of the rights of minorities are acknowledged as shared values in the European continent, compliance with these values is called for in post-conflict nation building. In the process of nation building in the Balkan States, the success of international institutions such as OSCE, the EU and the UN, was attained through involvement in the internal affairs of countries and the push for democratic national reconstruction as part of the post-conflict peace process and preventive diplomacy.Third, compared to the US' unilateralism, which arises from its military predominance (hard power), European countries have an inclination toward multilateralism centering on soft power in the peace process. Discord between the two is therefore becoming more obvious. In the development of a common foreign and security policy (CFCP) as well, the expansion of the EU has resulted in competition with NATO.Fourth, the internal affairs of European countries have greatly affected the diplomacy of each country. Consequently, a review of the linkage between internal affairs and diplomacy, based on a on a new framework is necessary.Last, now that these new trends have been impacted by the deficiencies of international politics such as evidenced by 9-11 and the war in Iraq, they have gone far beyond the post-Kosovo stage.
