In an article published in April 1991 in the NATO Review, Victor-Yves Ghebali, Professor at the Institut Universitaire de Hautes Études Internationales (Graduate Institute of International Studies), Geneva, analyses the major changes in the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE) after the 1990 Paris Summit and emphasises the benefits of the Helsinki process — its global make-up, its comprehensive mandate and its institutional flexibility — for the new Europe emerging after the collapse of Communism.
