Challenging the dominant assumption that NATO intervened in the
Balkans because of the threat that conflicts in the region posed to
European security, this book develops a new set of research
questions based on the hypothesis of the existence of "policy
communities". How has NATO managed to survive and transform itself
into a peace-enforcement organization? The author demonstrates
there were shifting policy communities in operations that shaped
the Alliance's transformation process, arguing NATO would not have
succeeded in assuming peace-enforcement tasks without other factors
ranging from organisational dynamics, domestic politics and the
impact of ad hoc reactions to external events. Highlighting the
role of NATO as an actor in international security, this volume is
aimed at academics and practitioners in the field of international
relations.
