NATO, Risk Management and Security Management: From Kosovo to Khandahar: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "NATO, Risk Management and Security Management: From Kosovo to Khandahar" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This new volume explores the crisis in transatlantic relations and analyses the role of NATO following the collapse of the Soviet Union.The book offers a unified theory of cooperation in the new security paradigm to explain the current state of transatlantic relations and NATOs failure to adequately transform itself into a security institution for the 21st century. It argues that a new preoccupation with risk filled the vacuum left by the collapse of the Soviet Union, and uses the literature of the Risk Society to analyse the strained politics of the North Atlantic community. Using case studies to show how the West has pursued a strategy of risk management, and the effect this has had on NATOs politics, the book argues that a better understanding of how risk affects Western political cohesion will allow policy makers a way of adapting the structure of NATO to make it more effective as a tool for security. Having analysed NATOs recent failings, the book offers a theory for the way in which it can become an active risk manager, through the replacement of its established structure by smaller, ad hoc groupings.

NATO, Security and Risk Management
This new volume explores the crisis in transatlantic relations and analyses the role of NATO following the collapse of the Soviet Union.
The book offers a unified theory of cooperation in the new security paradigm to explain the current state of transatlantic relations and NATOs failure to adequately transform itself into a security institution for the twenty-first century. It argues that a new preoccupation with risk filled the vacuum left by the collapse of the Soviet Union, and uses the literature of the risk society to analyse the strained politics of the North Atlantic Community. Using case studies to show how the West has pursued a strategy of risk management, and the effect this has had on NATOs politics, the book argues that a better understanding of how risk affects Western political cohesion will allow policy makers a way of adapting the structure of NATO to make it more effective as a tool for security. Having analysed NATOs recent failings, the book offers a theory for the way in which it can become an active risk manager, through the replacement of its established structure by smaller, ad hoc groupings.
This book will of much interest to students of NATO, risk society, international security, and IR in general.
