If NATO is to meet the needs of its sixteen members over the next several decades, it must address issues that go far beyond deterrence and defense: How can consensus be reached on NATO's future? How can public perception of the organization be gauged? How can NATO sustain and bolster worldwide political and economic support? NATO's interests are no longer limited to Western Europe; the Gulf has become a critical area, and Japan and other non-European nations now play a major role in Western security. In this book, composed of keynote speeches and papers delivered in Brussels at the conference on "The Future of NATO and Global Security," a diverse group of distinguished experts and political leaders from Western Europe, the United States, and Japan analyze current problems facing the Western Alliance and consider potential courses of action for the future.
