Survival, the IISS's bimonthly journal, challenges conventional wisdom and brings fresh, often controversial, perspectives on strategic issues of the moment.
In this issue:
- Robert Dalsjö, Michael Jonsson and Johan Norberg reconsider Russia's military capability given its recent battlefield performance in Ukraine
- William Alberque and Benjamin Schreer argue that Finland and Sweden's NATO membership would, if managed judiciously, bolster deterrence and European security
- Chuck Freilich contends that encouraging diplomacy is the best of Israel's limited options for postponing Iran's nuclear-weapons programme
- Nicolas Lippolis and Harry Verhoeven assess that if a wave of African defaults materialises in the near future, it will be catalysed more by private-sector manoeuvring and intransigence than by Chinese scheming
- Dana H. Allin and Erik Jones argue that Russia's isolation is not a viable endgame for the West, but it may be unavoidable for a generation
And seven more thought-provoking pieces, as well as our regular Book Reviews and Noteworthy column.
