Summary

"This book provides a timely overview and reappraisal of international security in the 1990s. Written nearly a decade after the end of the Cold War, the book is one of the first major attempts to distinguish between what is unique and what is perennial in the current security setting. In the process, this volume brings together the expertise of an international cast of fifteen specialists."--BOOK JACKET.
