This book presents a cutting-edge assessment of NATO's collective
defence strategies in the immediate aftermath of the July 2016 NATO
Warsaw Summit. Collective defence and deterrence came back on the
agenda at the 2014 Wales Summit following the Russian annexation of
Crimea, and was in many respects a game changer for NATO. The
Warsaw Summit was a follow-up and operationalization of the Wales
Summit, as well as adding further initiatives to the agenda. But is
NATO delivering? This book provides a thorough assessment of the
on-going debates and discussions taking place within and outside of
NATO in Europe and North America. In its return to deterrence, NATO
is confronted with challenges relating to strategic thinking,
capability development, and the role of nuclear weapons. It has
also raised questions about the future prospects for NATO
membership for countries such as Sweden and Finland, with broader
implications for the security situation in the Baltic region.
Central to all this is of course NATO's relationship with Russia
and questions of a new security dilemma, in turning bringing to the
fore the challenge of maintaining an appropriate balance between
deterrence and dialogue. The chapters in this volume address these
questions and provide a much-needed analysis of the results of the
NATO Warsaw Summit. This book will be of interest to policymakers
and students of NATO, international security, European Politics,
security studies and IR in general.
