The book offers a detailed analysis on Russia’s invasion of
Ukraine. A book needs to be written on this to make sense, from a
theoretical perspective, why this invasion has occurred and what
the main actors are pursuing. The originality rests on testing main
international relations theories: realism, liberalism and
constructivism to the war that emerges with the practices and
approaches during the Cold War to date from the North Atlantic
Treaty Organisation (NATO), the Soviet Union (and now Russia) and
Ukraine. The monograph commences with a historical overview of NATO
and how it has engaged in expansionism policy to further contain
Russia in contemporary international affairs with the accession of
additional former Soviet states. This helps to explain the current
Russian invasion of Ukraine that would attract great readership.
The main argument presented rests on the pursuance of realist
interests by NATO, Ukraine and Russia for containment, national
security interests and as a response to the security dilemma
respectively. This has served as the main catalyst of this conflict
that has made diplomacy, international law and collective security
measures problematic to implement.
