Rob de Wijk

'11 september' en de nieuwe wereldorde

Rob de Wijk elaborates on the question whether the dramatic events of September 11 have fundamentally changed international relations or whether they have merely reinforced the trends of the 1990s. The author argues that the latter is the most likely. the evidence suggests that the Americans have not seized the terrorist attacks on their territory upon creating new forms of permanent international cooperation.
