Book NATO and the Future of European and Asian Security

Download or read book NATO and the Future of European and Asian Security written by Christensen, Carsten Sander and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-06-25 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The key role in the security policy of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is to prevent new types of asymmetric challenges and deal with the new architecture of the Euro-Atlantic security environment, including the control of weapons of mass destruction. In modern international politics, the growing militaristic policies of the states have created many dangers and raised the need for NATO to address new issues that the Alliance did not face during the Cold War. NATO and the Future of European and Asian Security reflects on difficult geopolitical and geostrategic conditions and reviews how new types of warfare have a drastic impact on NATO’s military and defense doctrine. This book provides the newest data and theories and contributes to the understanding of the transformation of the regional security environment in the aegis of the Euro-Atlantic. Covering topics including foreign policy, global security, hybrid warfare, securitization, and smart defense, this book is essential for government officials, policymakers, public relations officers, military and defense agencies, teachers, historians, political scientists, security analysts, national security professionals, administrators, government organizations, researchers, academicians, and students.

Book NATO and the Future of European Security

Download or read book NATO and the Future of European Security written by Sean Kay and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 1998 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracing NATO's formative years, its Cold War development, and its post-Cold War evolution, Sean Kay draws on his policy experience in Brussels and Washington to provide unique insights into contemporary policy challenges, including NATO's outreach to the East and its Partnership for Peace, peacekeeping and the future of the Balkans, enlargement and the role of Russia in Europe, NATO's internal military adaptation, and the future of the transatlantic relationship. Kay argues that although NATO has evolved to some degree, it remains an institution dependent upon the United States with uncertain long-term prospects for playing a constructive role in Europe. Indeed, the author shows that if not implemented carefully, NATO enlargement may actually decrease rather than increase stability in the region.

Book NATO s Future Role in Europe

Download or read book NATO s Future Role in Europe written by Richard L. Kugler and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report develops a conceptual framework for thinking about future NATO policies. It analyzes, individually and interactively, the major variables that seem likely to shape NATO's role over the period 1990-2005. NATO's premature dissolution could unleash forces of instability in Europe. The Alliance serves vital Western interests that transcend the specific details of East-West relations. As long as it continues to face a Soviet military threat of some sort, it will need a coherent military strategy and defense posture. What is needed is a process of change and adaptation, one aimed at transforming NATO from its primarily military orientation into a more political alliance, calling for a policy of pragmatic aims rather than ultimate visions. One evolutionary path Europe might follow is discussed. The goals of Western security policy would be to use NATO to enhance stability at each stage, guard against reversals, and encourage further evolution.

Download or read book The European Security and Defense Policy written by Robert E. Hunter and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2002-04-29 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emergence of the European Security and Defense Policy (ESDP) in the last two-thirds of the 1990s and continuing into the new century, has been a complex process intertwining politics, economics, national cultures, and numerous institutions. This book provides an essential background for understanding how security issues as between NATO and the European Union are being posed for the early part of the 21st century, including the new circumstances following the terrorist attacks in New York and Washington on September 11, 2001. This study should be of interest to those interested in the evolution of U.S.-European relations, especially in, but not limited to, the security field; the development of institutional relationships; and key choices that lie ahead in regard to these critical arrangements.

Book Partnership for Peace  NATO s Future

Download or read book Partnership for Peace NATO s Future written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph examines the NATO Alliance and its transition from a 1949 defense security guarantee, between 16 independent nations into a collective security arrangement. The 1991 NATO Summit formalized this shift from an adversarial relationship between east and west, to one of engagement through Partnership for Peace (PfP) a NATO alliance initiative designed to enhance stability throughout Europe. The focus of this monograph is on the Partnership for Peace initiative that was designed to engage the allies and client states of the former Soviet Union. NATO in 1991 found its Cold War strategic objectives out of balance with the realities of a new European environment. The aim of PfP is to establish a bond between the NATO members and the nations of Eastern and Central Europe, the Balkans, and the Caucasus. It is a political and military consultative process that is based on the framework of the objectives the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council laid out. These objectives frame the PIP initiative. These are designed to: enhance democratic principles, reinforce the military subordination to civilian control, and support human rights in the former Soviet satellite nations.

Book NL ARMS Netherlands Annual Review of Military Studies 2020

Download or read book NL ARMS Netherlands Annual Review of Military Studies 2020 written by Frans Osinga and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-03 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access volume surveys the state of the field to examine whether a fifth wave of deterrence theory is emerging. Bringing together insights from world-leading experts from three continents, the volume identifies the most pressing strategic challenges, frames theoretical concepts, and describes new strategies. The use and utility of deterrence in today’s strategic environment is a topic of paramount concern to scholars, strategists and policymakers. Ours is a period of considerable strategic turbulence, which in recent years has featured a renewed emphasis on nuclear weapons used in defence postures across different theatres; a dramatic growth in the scale of military cyber capabilities and the frequency with which these are used; and rapid technological progress including the proliferation of long-range strike and unmanned systems. These military-strategic developments occur in a polarized international system, where cooperation between leading powers on arms control regimes is breaking down, states widely make use of hybrid conflict strategies, and the number of internationalized intrastate proxy conflicts has quintupled over the past two decades. Contemporary conflict actors exploit a wider gamut of coercive instruments, which they apply across a wider range of domains. The prevalence of multi-domain coercion across but also beyond traditional dimensions of armed conflict raises an important question: what does effective deterrence look like in the 21st century? Answering that question requires a re-appraisal of key theoretical concepts and dominant strategies of Western and non-Western actors in order to assess how they hold up in today’s world. Air Commodore Professor Dr. Frans Osinga is the Chair of the War Studies Department of the Netherlands Defence Academy and the Special Chair in War Studies at the University Leiden. Dr. Tim Sweijs is the Director of Research at The Hague Centre for Strategic Studies and a Research Fellow at the Faculty of Military Sciences of the Netherlands Defence Academy in Breda.

Download or read book The Nato of the Future written by Bertel Heurlin and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This article is an analysis of a NATO, expanding its membership with three former Warsaw Pact-members, expanding organisationally with PfP and enhanced PfP, EAPC and the NATO-Russia Council, agreeing on a new strategic concept, waging war in form of humanitarian intervention against Serbia, and in this way demonstrating the existing power security structure in Europe: the dominating role of the USA. The article argues that NATO has become an entirely new organisation, covering now the whole Europe, acting more in terms of collective security than of collective defense. The existing and future tools for NATO maintaining stability and security in Europe will be intervention and military integration." -- Website.
