A concice review bringing together differing perspectives and orientations to provide a complete understanding of the future of the Atlantic Alliance, its relationship with the US, and its implications for global security. The post Cold War order established by the United States is at a crossroads: no longer is the liberal order and U. S. hegemonic power a given. The Challenge to NATO is a concise review of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), its relationship with the United States, and its implications for global security. Despite seeing its seventieth anniversary in 2019, NATO faces both external and internal threats to its continued survival. This volume examines the organisation' s past, its current regional operations, and future threats facing the Atlantic Alliance with contributions by well-known academics, former central figures within NATO, and diplomats directly involved in NATO operations. In this volume, Michael O. Slobodchikoff, G. Doug Davis, and Brandon Stewart bring together differing perspectives and orientations to provide a complete understanding of the future of the Atlantic Alliance. AUTHOR: Michael O. Slobodchikoff is an associate professor of political science at Troy University.

Doug Davis is an associate professor of political science at Troy University. He is the coauthor (with Slobodchikoff) of Cultural Imperialism and the Decline of the Liberal Order: Russian and Western Soft Power in Eastern Europe. Brandon Stewart is an assistant professor of political science at Troy University. 5 illustrations, 10 tables
"The world is again facing a series of critical and ongoing crises without clear solutions: the Middle East conflict, Syria, Ukraine, and Nagorno-Karabakh are but a few of the conflicts that will populate news cycles in the years to come. This book clearly demonstrates the role that NATO has played in mitigating global hostilities over the last decades. Yet more important, it thoughtfully and convincingly discusses the questions--both internal and external--that NATO must face in order to effectively meet the challenges of the coming era. I would highly recommend it not only to policy-makers and academics, but to anyone that wishes to better understand the role for multilateralism in our changing world. "--Miomir Zuzul, former minister of foreign affairs of Croatia and former ambassador of Croatia to the United Nations and the United States "A timely and useful analysis of the main issues confronting the alliance as it develops and adapts to an ever-evolving security environment. Benefiting from the input of many distinguished scholars and practitioners in the field of international security, this volume brings a valuable contribution to the process of in-depth strategic reflection that underpins NATO' s endeavors to chart its course as the most powerful and successful military alliance of the twenty-first century. "--Nicolae-Ionel Ciuca, minister of National Defense of Romania "This volume creatively combines the talents and experience of American and European former senior officials, operational officers, and academics to survey NATO' s past, present, and future. The mix of perspectives offers important insights into contemporary transatlantic security issues that should be of interest to international affairs scholars and students as well as practitioners. "--Stanley R. Sloan, author of Defense of the West: Transatlantic Security from Truman to Trump
