The first comprehensive history of NATO in the 1960s, based on the
systematic use of multinational archival evidence. This new book is
the result of a gathering of leading Cold War historians from both
sides of the Atlantic, including Jeremi Suri, Erin Mahan, and
Leopoldo Nuti. It shows in great detail how the transformation of
NATO since 1991 has opened up new perspectives on the alliance's
evolution during the Cold War. Viewed in retrospect, the 1960s were
instrumental to the strengthening of NATO's political clout, which
proved to be decisive in winning the Cold War - even more so than
NATO's defense and deterrence capabilities. In addition, it shows
that NATO increasingly served as a hub for state, institutional,
transnational, and individual actors in that decade. Contributions
to the book highlight the importance of NATO's ability to generate
"soft power", the scope and limits of alliance consultation, the
important role of common transatlantic values, and the growing
influence of small allies. NATO's survival in the crucial 1960s
provides valuable lessons for the current bargaining on the purpose
and cohesion of the alliance. This book will be of much interest to
students of international history, Cold War studies and strategic
studies.
