Research for Multilateral Organizations

CNA and the Centro Militare di Studi Strategici (CeMiSS), the analytical group within the Italian equivalent of the U.S. National Defense University (CASD), agreed to conduct a joint project in 2006 on European and American views of the security situation in Europe, with particular regard for the situation around the Mediterranean Sea. The CeMiSS leader of the project, contributed a paper on Italian foreign policy. Daniel Whiteneck compared European and American views on the security situation. H. H. Gaffney discussed hard and soft power, noting that it represents a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Thaddeus Moyseowicz covered the experience and future of multilateral organizations in the Mediterranean context, and Mark Rosen discussed the questions of international regulation of the sea spaces.
