  • Present at the Transformation: an Insider's Reflection on NATO
    Present at the Transformation 425 Chapter 18 Present at the Transformation: An Insider’s Reflection on NATO Enlargement, NATO-Russia Relations, and Where We Go from Here Alexander Vershbow It’s now twenty years since NATO’s first post-Cold War enlarge- ment when Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic became the 17th, 18th and 19th members of the Alliance in March 1999. This began a process that has added a total of 13 new democracies from Central and Eastern Europe to NATO’s ranks, with Northern Macedonia set to become the 30th member in 2019. NATO enlargement was only one dimension of U.S. and NATO policy at the end of the Cold War aimed at consolidating peace and security across Europe, overcoming the division of the continent im- posed by Stalin at the end of World War II and ratified at the 1945 Yalta Summit. The enlargement of NATO membership went hand in hand with the forging of a strategic partnership with Russia, formalized in the NATO-Russia Founding Act of 1997. A transformed NATO Al- liance and an institutionalized NATO-Russia partnership were envis- aged as the main pillars of a U.S.-led pan-European security system that sought to realize the vision of a Europe whole, free and at peace first articulated by President George H.W. Bush and reaffirmed by President Bill Clinton. The ensuing twenty years have witnessed a lot of second-guessing about the wisdom of the decision to open NATO to the East, with more and more critics arguing that it was the “original sin” that led to the confrontational relationship with Moscow that we are dealing with today.

  • NATO's Persistence After the Cold War. (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) Author: Robert B
    Source: International Organization, Summer 1996 50 n3 p445-475. Title: NATO's persistence after the cold war. (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) Author: Robert B. McCalla Author's Abstract: COPYRIGHT 1996 World Peace Foundation; Massachusetts Institute of Tech Neorealist theories help explain alliance formation and longevity but have trouble explaining why the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) continues to exist after the cold war. Organizational theories further our understanding by noting that organizations have strong survival instincts, yet NATO survives only as long as its members wish it to. To understand NATO's persistence after the cold war, we must turn to international institutionalist theories to explain why, contrary to neorealist expectations, NATO remains the key international security institution for its members. International institutionalist theories add the conception of NATO as part of a broad multilevel and multi-issue relationship among member states, and this broader context is necessary to explain NATO's persistence. Subjects: Treaties - Social aspects Alliances - Analysis Organizational effectiveness - Analysis Organizations: North Atlantic Treaty Organization - Political aspects Electronic Collection: A18622769 RN: A18622769 Full Text COPYRIGHT 1996 World Peace Foundation; Massachusetts Institute of Tech Alliance literature traditionally has focused on two key questions: Why do alliances form? and What keeps alliances together?(1) A broader question, related to the second, is inadequately addressed: How do alliances respond to changing strategic circumstances? This essay examines how the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) has responded to the end of the cold war and the demise of its main threat, the Soviet Union. This is a timely and critical issue, as NATO could take many different paths in response to these changes.

ABSTRACT THE REINVENTION OF NATO Robert M. Antis Old Dominion University, 2006 Director: Dr. Regina Karp In 2006, NATO is operating well out of area and conducting missions beyond the collective defense limits of its founding Treaty. NATO increasingly supports humanitarian relief operations, while also engaged in Afghanistan, the Mediterranean, and African crisis spots.

    Not for citation without the author's permission EES SPECIAL REPORT NATO AT A CROSSROAD: CAN IT COPE WITH POST- SEPTEMBER 11TH AND ENLARGEMENT CHALLENGES? Jeffrey Simon May 2002 NATO AT A CROSSROAD: CAN IT COPE WITH POST- SEPTEMBER 11TH AND ENLARGEMENT CHALLENGES? Jeffrey Simon* JEFFREY SIMON is a Senior Fellow at the Institute for National Strategic Studies, National Defense University, DC. NATO stands at a crossroad. It has been there before, but this time is different. As the Alliance proceeds to the Prague Summit in November 2002, it needs to focus on first order priorities and address the serious challenges that beset it. First, NATO needs to both look at how it can adapt existing capabilities and whether it should develop new ones to deal with post-September 11th security challenges. NATO also needs to assess whether it is best suited to take on some of the post-September 11th challenges, which will help clarify the answer to the question: capabilities for what? Second, NATO needs to seriously reexamine its risk assessments and explore whether the U.S. and its European allies’ perceptions are converging or diverging; and if the answer is the latter, to explore the potential dangers and consequences of this. Third, as NATO will likely emerge from the Prague Summit substantially enlarged, the Alliance must simultaneously deal with the administrative impact and burdens resulting from a greatly enlarged organization that will stress political coherence and the effectiveness of its decision-making. Standing at a crossroad, enlargement can either provide the catalyst for revitalizing NATO to cope with 21st Century challenges or render it irrelevant.
