The 1815 Congress of Vienna ushered in the emergence of a genuinely European security culture. Securing Europe after Napoleon offers new insights into the military cooperation, ambassadorial conferences, transnational police networks, and international commissions that helped produce stability. Ido de Haan, a co-editor of the book, is Professor of Political History at Utrecht University and Queen Wilhelmina Visiting Professor at Columbia University.
