Summary / Abstract (Note) | ONE ASPECT OF INTERNATIONAL POLITICS that seems fraught with dialectical tensions at every turn is the effort to give form and substance to the apparent belief of NATO member states that in the face of issues of a global nature the Alliance has a distinctly functional nature in a dense transatlantic institutional environment. To the extent that in the beginning of the 21st century the likelihood of conventional war between major powers is lower than at any time in modern history, NATO's existential basis was severely challenged. |
