Research Abstract |
Since the Cold War period, the America's transatlantic alliance and its alliance with Asia-Pacific countries have been emphasized on differences of history and structures and each alliance has been considered as discrete phenomenon. However, after the Cold War, restructuring of the alliance proceeded to aim for crisis management and emergency response on a common global basis, and it became difficult to discuss the matter without each alliance. Regarding the picture of overall America's global alliance, this research was intended to verify the reality of American-European security relations and provide new comparative viewpoint to current alliance study in Japan that leans toward only Japan-U.S. relations. Furthermore, it was our attempt to bring the view of analyzing the naissance and development process of making alliance to "Security Community" by paying attention to value standard and interest that have to be shared in order for the American-European alliance to function effectively. Concerning the security community's common idea, we have made it clear that following factor will affect future transatlantic alliance : 1)with conflict of two universalism (unilateralism and multilateralism) that concern world view of 21st century 2)opposing views on under which circumstances the usage of armed forces is justified and how democracy can be spread all over the world. This research, focused on American-European alliance, gave suggestions to our country's policy. In other words, it is confirmed that understanding the high-level diplomatic view is inevitable for our country to develop independently alliance diplomatic relationship.
