Despite the dramatic changes in the international environment since 1989, it remains the case that force, and the threat of force, retain utility. The volume deals with the nature of security, international conflict and co-operation, deterrence, crisis management and prevention, arms control and disarmament, insurgency and low intensity conflict, Third World security, alliances and the role of land, air and naval power. The book takes a predominantly traditional approach, but also introduces students to other perspectives and approaches relating to security and to the security of the Third World.

Understanding the European Communities
Understanding the European Communities brings together the joint expertise of a practitioner and an academic to provide a comprehensive introduction to the history, organizations and systems of the European Community. The book is written at a level accessible to those approaching the subject for the first time. One of its major themes is that the development, institutional system, policies and significance of the European Communities cannot be understood unless treated in the proper historical and political perspective. The book therefore traces the intellectual origins of European integration and the evolution of the Communities right up to the end of the 1980s. Throughout, the text is illustrated by tables and diagrams. Understanding the European Communities is essential reading for all students of European politics and economics.

Unneutral Ireland
Throughout the 20th century the Irish have claimed, at critical moments, that Ireland is a neutral state and that it has established a policy of "traditional neutrality." Here, Salmon examines these claims by first identifying the essence of neutrality and nonalignment and then applying that understanding to the Irish case. Arguing that Ireland has failed to meet the criteria normally associated with neutrality and nonalignment, he explores the controversial issue of whether neutrality is compatible with membership in the European Community, and compares the status of Ireland with those of Austria, Sweden, and Switzerland.
