NATO in the Post-Cold War Era - Does It Have a Future? (Hardcover, 1995 ed.)

Established in 1949, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)
performed its assigned mission exceedingly well as it secured peace
for its member states and avoided military confrontation between
the superpowers during the remaining four decades of the Cold War.
But with the dramatic changes that began in 1989, an identity
crisis has plagued NATO. Whereas the Cold War years had essentially
defined who would be fighting whom in a future conflict, the
uncertain post-1989 years are introducing new and possibly
calamitous variables. Despite the fact that hardly a voice has been
heard calling for its dissolution and that states from the former
Warsaw Pact are seeking membership, NATO's members face the
demanding task of defining the new strategic challenges and
formulating appropriate policies and responses. The articles in
this volume combine to present a comprehensive investigation of the
diverse problems confronting NATO. The contributions each provide
relevant historical background before analyzing current conditions
and projecting into the future. An opening essay offers an overview
of NATO after forty-five years and is followed by others dealing
with NATO's structural changes for the 1990s, NATO's shifting
strategy, and NATO's developing connections with other
international organizations, such as the United Nations, CSCE, and
the European Community. The concluding part of the volume includes
essays focusing on NATO's associations with the United States, the
Anglo-American special relationship, the Balkans, the former Warsaw
Pact states, and the Middle East.
