text: This is also the basic lesson to be drawn from recent events in Europe. Just as we are striving for one peaceful Europe, we have to strive for one peaceful world. As in Europe, a common commitment to democracy, human rights and the rule of law should also serve as a quidinq principle on the global level. In Europe we shall have to develop all-European structures and institutions in order to grow together again after decades of division and confrontation. Globally we already have such structures and organizations. What is lacking, however, is the determination to make the best possible use of them. I am talkinq in particular about the United Nations system. A major reason for this situation, I believe, is that we are not living up to our common responsibilities. We simply do not practice what we preach. We have to go beyond hiqh-minded resolutions and declarations: we have to seek practical ways and means to translate our common values into common action. BHS/jg A/S-18/PV. 5 16 (Mr• Riegler, Austria) The Conference on Security and Co-operation in Europe (CSCE), which was first convened in 1975, was instrumental in bringing about a true commitment to common values and concepts by agreeing on and implementing an increasing number of specific measures. This was achieved despite military confrontation and ideological rivalry. The spirit of Helsinki has finally prevailed and opened the way towards a better future for all Europeans~ Maybe we can learn a lesson from this example and launch a similar process in the United Nations, a kind of global CSCE. Such a process would have to give substance to our common values by translating them into practice in a verv concrete and specific manner. This will require a new approach on a global scale, transcendinq the confines of purely national interests. 
analysis: The text discusses the importance of promoting democracy, human rights, and the rule of law globally, and advocates for a more effective use of international organizations such as the United Nations. It also draws parallels between the European context and the global level, suggesting that a similar process of cooperation and commitment to common values can be achieved. These themes suggest that the category should be related to international relations, cooperation, and governance.
