Book Defense of the West

Download or read book Defense of the West written by Stanley R. Sloan and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-11 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written in a lively and readable style by the world’s leading authority on the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and US-European relations, Defense of the West is the history of a transatlantic security relationship that has endured for over seventy years. This latest edition of a classic work looks at how developments inside NATO and European Union member states affect their ability to defend against external threats while preserving Western values, in the era of Trump and Brexit. Sloan frankly addresses the failures and shortcomings of Western institutions and member states. But the book emphasizes the continuing importance of value-based transatlantic security cooperation as a vital element of the defense and foreign policies of NATO and EU member states. At a time of heightened tension and political turmoil, at home and abroad, Stan Sloan’s lucid and far-sighted analysis is more necessary than ever.

Book Permanent Alliance

Download or read book Permanent Alliance written by Stanley R. Sloan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-07-15 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Stanley Sloan has for many years been one of the most influential and authoritative analysts of the NATO Alliance. In his new book Permanent Alliance? he demonstrates once again his in-depth knowledge of NATO issues and his sound, balanced judgements of both the strengths and weaknesses of the Alliance as it strives to adapt to the 21st-century security challenges. This book should be at the top of the list for anyone who wants to understand today's NATO." Jamie Shea, Director, Policy Planning, Private Office of the Secretary General, NATO "Stanley Sloan, a distinguished NATO analyst, has been thinking, lecturing, and writing about the transatlantic bargain for over a generation. In this, his third book on the subject, he has produced a masterly re-examination of the sixty-year relationship between America and Europe. Cautiously optimistic about NATO's future, this authoritative study should be welcomed by scholars and policymakers alike. It will be a valuable text for my NATO history classes." Lawrence S. Kaplan, Emeritus Director, Lyman L. Lemnitzer Center for NATO and European Union Studies, Kent State University "Sloan's book is an outstanding study on the subject matter of transatlantic relations. He is an original thinker, an experienced researcher and---clearly visible---loves the subject matter. This study is a must both for teachers and students of political science and contemporary history." Bram Boxhoorn, Director, Netherlands Atlantic Association "I read Stan Sloan as I began teaching NATO affairs decades ago. I continue to read him today to learn. You will as well---read him." Lawrence Chalmer, National Defense University Permanent Alliance? NATO and the Transatlantic Bargain from Truman to Obama examines how US-European relations are evolving in response to the many global trends that are changing the strategic environment for that relationship. The Obama Administration has taken responsibility for US participation in the transatlantic alliance as the allies prepare to implement a new strategic concept and try to shape NATO's future in view of these trends and the alliance's experience in Afghanistan. In this light, Sloan assesses whether NATO is becoming the permanent alliance President George Washington warned us against, or if it is nearing the end of its utility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This reader contains a sample of the best essays published in the foreign policy quarterly. The National Interest during its first four years. The period covered by this volume was a critical one for American foreign policy. It represented a recovery of confidence after the uncertainty and self-laceration of the 1960s and 1970s. But it was also a period when dramatic events in the communist world raised fundamental questions about the ending of the Cold War and about prevailing American foreign policy. The essays in this volume examine the basic and enduring questions of international politics and the national security of the United States. These and related issues are discussed in the reader by leading American policymakers, academics, and commentators. Co-published with The National Interest.
