NATO's New Roles: The Kosovo Challenge
Twelve nations sign the North Atlantic Treaty, April 4, 1949.
Is the prospective intervention in Kosovo a defining moment for the newly reconstituted NATO alliance? Questions to be discussed include:
- Is NATO's new collective security agenda compatible with its founding mission of collective defense?
- How will NATO adapt to the challenges posed by its new missions of crisis management and peace support, as well as to a proposed global role and dealing with weapons of mass destruction?
- What is the likely course of the next stages under discussion for further NATO enlargement?
