This book was published in 2003. How has NATO managed to survive
and transform itself into a peace-enforcement organization?
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". The author demonstrates that there were shifting
policy communities in operations that shaped the Alliance's
transformation process, arguing that 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 - coming into play.
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
