Publication Date: 2021
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization is the world's largest, most powerful military alliance. Since the release of the 2010 Strategic Concept, NATO's strategic environment has again undergone significant change, and the need to adapt is clear. To remain relevant and adjust to new circumstances, the Alliance must identify its main challenges and opportunities in the next ten years and beyond. This book contributes to critical conversations on NATO's future vitality by examining the Alliance's most salient issues and by offering recommendations to ensure its effectiveness moving forward. Written by a diverse, multigenerational group of policymakers and academics from across Europe and the United States, this book provides new insights about NATO's changing international landscape, its shifting internal dynamics, and the evolution of warfare.

Origins, Progress, and Unfinished Business : NATO’s Protection of Civilians Policy by Dock, Katie
Publication Date: 2021
Henry L. Stimson Center (US)
Adopted in 2016, NATO’s Protection of Civilians (PoC) Policy aims to set out a coherent, consistent, and integrated approach to PoC in NATO’s ongoing and future operations. This landmark Policy was an important step for the Alliance – but where does it stand five years later ? To answer this question, there is a need to explore where the PoC policy came from, how it has been implemented thus far, and why it is important for the NATO’s future. This report details, through personal accounts from stakeholders both inside and outside the formal NATO structure, the road to the policy, the impressive progress made in the first five years, and the work that still remains.
NATO in the Era of Unpeace : Defending Against Known Unknowns by Jankowski, Dominik P., ed.
Publication Date: 2021
Institute of Central Europe (PL)
This publication underlines the need to update the NATO Strategic Concept to properly reflect the new, changed strategic environment, while providing sound recommendations for the mid-to long-term. The authors skillfully argue that the Alliance must develop its own toolbox to effectively counter Russian employment of its instruments of power to continuously assure NATO’s superiority and ability to pose strategic dilemmas and risks unacceptable to Russia’s calculus, through the exploration of any identified weaknesses in their 'destabilization campaign'.
