Description
This volume presents often sharply contrasting views on the future of NATO. Its contributors, mainly security specialists, cover structural reform of NATO and its relationship with the European Union; evidence or arguments in support of the Alliance taking on new tasks like peacekeeping and enlarging eastward to include countries of the former Soviet bloc; and a variety of arguments against enlargement, ranging from concerns about Russia's reaction to questions about whether the US should remain involved in Europe.
Reviews / Votes
'...a useful book which provides a full range of arguments for and against NATO's re-structuring in order to become the quintessential Transatlantic security institution after the East-West conflict.' - Wilfried von Bredow, Journal of Strategic Studies
