ISBN: 9783031168475 / Angielski / Twarda / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Beyond 2%--NATO Partners, Institutions & Burden Management: Concepts, Risks & Models
ISBN: 9783031221576 / Angielski / Twarda / 231 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book advances North Atlantic Treaty Organization (henceforth, NATO) burden analysis through a decomposition of the political, financial, social, and defense burdens members take on for the institution. The overemphasis of committing a minimum of 2% of member state Gross Domestic Product (GDP) to defense spending, as a proxy indicator of alliance commitment does not properly reflect how commitments reduce risks should Article V be invoked through attack (i.e., 2% is a political & symbolic target adopted by Defense Ministers in 2006 at Riga). Considering defense burdens multi-dimensionally...

Thus, to understand interstate peace and conflict, it is useful to know how rivalries work in general and more specifically. In the past two decades, a strenuous effort has been mounted to introduce the concept of rivalry and demonstrate its utility in unraveling conflict situations. Yet all rivalries...
