Description
Book SynopsisSurvival, the IISSâs bimonthly journal, challenges conventional wisdom and brings fresh, often controversial, perspectives on strategic issues of the moment.
In this issue:
- Steven Simon argues that despite the violent storming of the US Capitol, Republicans are inclined to commit to minority rule
- In a special forum, IISS researchers and three other experts consider whether NATOâs European members can defend themselves without US support
- Hanns W. Maull contends that the coronavirus pandemic has revealed deficiencies of global governance, and analyses their implications for the future of international order
- Christopher W. Hughes, Alessio Patalano and Robert Ward examine Japanâs grand strategy and Abe Shinzoâs legacy
And seven more thought-provoking pieces, as well as our regular Book Reviews and Noteworthy column.
Editor: Dr Dana Allin
