Summary: | The Council of Europe (CoE), established to help maintain peace on the western part of the continent following World War II is, as author Bond (European politics, U. of London) describes it, almost unknown beyond the politicians, civil servants, and others who work with it as part of their official business. Here the author explains what the CoE is, how it works, its responsibilities and jurisdictions, its eventual expansion to incorporate all the states of Europe, and the opportunities and challenges it faces from globalization.
