Reviews
"Richard Rose is uniquely placed to address the major policy challenge facing Europe today: how to create a stable security framework after the war in Ukraine ends. Drawing on a lifetime of lived experience as well as vast research, Rose explains clearly the choices Europe faces. This book is a must read for students of European politics and for security policymakers." -- Simon Hix, European University Institute Florence, Italy "Donald Trump has made the issue of European security deeply divisive in the United State and isolationism is on the rise. Read this book to find out how Europe will cope." -- William Schneider, George Mason University emeritus & CNN political analyst "A magisterial and thought-provoking account of the development of European security from the Second World War to today." -- Anand Menon, Director of UK in a Changing Europe "Richard Rose explores pressing questions facing Europe today. Is America's post-1945 will to provide security for Europe faltering? Will Berlin, Brussels, London and Paris be able to fill the void? Can the EU match its economic success with a real defence role? He offers a fascinating assessment of European security - past, present and future." -- Anthony Teasdale, former Director- General, European Parliamentary Research Service, Visiting Professor, LSE and Columbia University "This book offers here an expert analysis of the crucial question as to how European security was achieved during the cold war and how it can now still be attained going forward given Russia's war on Ukraine. For a broad array of readers this tour de force delineates clearly the critical constraints, and motivations of the EU, the UN, NATO, US, UK, Russia and Ukraine." -- Marc Berenson, Kings College London, UK " European Security provides an accessible, up-to-date overview of history from the end of the Second World War to Russia's war against Ukraine. Its thematic coverage offers a clear-eyed interpretation of security in Europe." -- Thomas F. Remington, Harvard and Emory Universities, A magisterial and thought-provoking account of the development of European security from the Second World War to today.

Synopsis
Exploring the ebb and flow of European security from the end of the Second World War to the present day, Richard Rose examines why security cannot be taken for granted today and what this means for the future of security in Europe. Since 1949 military security from the Black Sea to Washington's Potomac River has been guaranteed by NATO with the White House in command. He reminds us that masses of Europeans enjoyed unprecedented economic security as the European Union has replaced competition in armaments with competition in a single European market. The fall of the Berlin Wall and the Soviet Union restructured the map of Europe and encouraged the United States to turn toward China. However, Vladimir Putin's attempt to revive a Soviet-style version of security by invading Ukraine has stimulated aid to Ukraine as it fights a proxy war to protect the security of Europe. Looking ahead, Rose asks whether European governments are able to defend themselves as America's commitment to Europe becomes less reliable; the challenge to Europe of helping fund the reconstruction of Ukraine; questions the conditions in which the European Union and NATO could admit Ukraine as a member; and sets out where Britain fits in as a NATO but not an EU member-state.

    Super fast shipping. The package itself was damaged from the post office and the thumb screws are missing BUT I do not in anyway hold against the seller, I fully believe it was the postal services mishandling of the package that caused them to be missing. I DO recommend this seller & will purchase in the future.
