| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Anders Fogh Rasmussen is the first former prime minister to become NATO secretary general. Traditionally a role requiring behind-the-scenes diplomacy and consensus-building, Rasmussen's first year has been characterised by a break with convention. Regarded as a policy entrepreneur, his independence has reportedly provoked consternation amongst NATO ambassadors, whilst his personal media profile via Twitter and Facebook has opened the office up to public attention. Is Rasmussen a maverick or a model for the future of NATO? |
