- Summary
- "Defending Peace: Ireland's Role in a Changing Europe traces how the EU, under the influence of NATO, has evolved a disturbingly militaristic 'common defence policy', and how successive Irish governments have misled us into involvement in it. It shows that this policy is hugely at odds with the values allegedly underlying Irish foreign policy, particularly peace building under UN authority, and with those of the Peace Process. Far from failing, the UN has been prevented from fulfilling its mandate by the large industrial and military states, and a UN reclaimed by global civil society is the only practical alternative to NATO's lawless aggression."--BOOK JACKET
