As Rhodesia, Namibia, the South African Homelands and Taiwan then were subjects of acute concern, today governments, international organizations, and other institutions are seized of such matters as the membership of Cyprus in the European Union, application of the Geneva Conventions to Afghanistan, afinal settlement for Kosovo, and, still, relations between China and Taiwan. All of these, and many other disputed situations
