Strategic Survey 2010: The Annual Review of World Affairs  

Strategic Survey 2010

 

Strategic Survey is the annual review of world affairs from the International Institute for Strategic Studies. It is an invaluable tool for interpreting worldwide strategic developments. Since 1966, it has provided the essential one-volume analysis of the year’s key events in international relations for government policy makers, journalists, business leaders and academics.

 

Strategic Survey 2010 has special essays on US Nuclear Policy, US Defence Policy and Europe’s Evolving Security Architecture. There is also an extensive examination of Latin America’s growing global influence, an essay on the nature of domestic Iranian politics and its impact on nuclear negotiations, an analysis of the competing agendas within the South African ANC, a survey of the competing interests that China seeks to balance in its external relations, an appreciation of the current situation in Russia and several other chapters on regional politics and security.
