On the beach, Paolo Valpolini. Jane's Defence Weekly, 30.9.98, pp 26-32. Briefing on NATO's amphibious forces in the Mediterranean region.

Die "Neue Deutsche Aussenpolitik" - Zwischen Renationalisierung, europaeische Integration und weltpolitische Anspruch [The "New German Foreign Policy" - between renationalisation, European integration and world political ambitions], AMI, no 10, 1998. Special issue with articles on US-German relations, armament policy, human rights and immigration, information management.

Sicherheit statt Risiko - an der Aussen - und Sicherheitspoliwird sich unter Rot-Gruen wenig aendern [Safety instead of risk - little will change in the foreign and security policy], AMI, no 11, 1998, pp 37-44.

Ueberlegungen zur europaeischen und nationalen Neustrukturie-rung in der Ruestungsindustrie [Thoughts on the European and national reorganisation in the armaments industry], Gerd Juergen Kreiss. Europaeische Sicherheit, no 10, 1998.

"I never said there would be an ethical foreign policy" - and other myths dispelled by the foreign secretary, Steve Richards/Robin Cook. New Statesman 13.11.98., pp14-15. Interview with UK foreign secretary, Robin Cook, in which he denies advocating an "ethical foreign policy" standing by the more cautious "ethical dimension" to foreign policy. Probably just as well considering Amnesty's latest review of human rights which criticises the Department of Trade and Industry for exporting arms to repressive regimes and the MoD for promoting arms sales without adequate safeguards.
