Abstract

In the oral presentation of their papers, Didier Bigo, Jeremy Shapiro and Andrei Fedorov generally highlighted their respective region's specificities rather than dwelling on the elements of commonality. Although this was in part a consequence of the European Security Forum's modus operandi - with its differentiated European, American and Russian perspectives, rarely in our meetings has the contrast been so clearly highlighted.
