| description | A new framework for analysis Although the pacification of Europe is a process that was set into motion in the early 1950s, it was the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 that sparked a flurry of publications that aimed to describe and explain how such an achievement was possible. After this initial theoretical enthusiasm, the current decrease in the research output is proportionally inverse to the growth of integrative linkages in the European Union. This article argues that the old epistemological tools for understanding the pacification of Europe are becoming obsolete as they are embedded in a regional context that no longer exists. In order to overcome this shortcoming, this article introduces a new interpretative framework based on the idea of regional peace and security complexes (RPSC). European RPSC is approached from a comprehensive historical perspective. |
