Survival: August – September 2024Edición 1

Survival, the IISS’s bimonthly journal, challenges conventional wisdom and brings fresh, often controversial, perspectives on strategic issues of the moment.

In this issue:

· Douglas Barrie and Timothy Wright underscore the need for Washington to prioritise qualitative rather than quantitative improvements to its nuclear capabilities – free to read

· Catherine Fieschi examines the implications of an indecisive French election

· Daniel Byman and Seth G. Jones explore the increasing ties between China, Russia, Iran and North Korea and obstacles to deeper cooperation

· Veronica Anghel and Erik Jones examine how the European Union can utilise its most powerful instrument – enlargement – to stabilise its peripheries

· And eight more thought-provoking pieces, as well as our regular Book Reviews and Noteworthy column.
