Overview
This volume presents often sharply contrasting views on the future of NATO. Its contributors, mainly security specialists, cover structural reform of NATO and its relationship with the European Union; evidence or arguments in support of the Alliance taking on new tasks like peacekeeping and enlarging eastward to include countries of the former Soviet bloc; and a variety of arguments against enlargement, ranging from concerns about Russia's reaction to questions about whether the US should remain involved in Europe.

Margaret Thatcher offers a foreword to a collection of views by mostly US scholars of defense and international relations on the future of the diplomatic bridge with no river to cross. Among the issues they discuss are the nature of European security, whether NATO can expand into eastern Europe without jeopardizing Russian democracy, and whether and under what circumstances it should take on new global missions such as peacekeeping.
