On Tuesday 7 September 2010, the IISS launched Strategic Survey 2010, its annual review of world affairs.
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. The Strategic Geography section assesses subjects as diverse as the extent of India’s Naxalite rebellion, Thailand’s political turmoil, the effects of disasters such as the Chilean and Haitian earthquakes, the position of the so-called BASIC countries on climate change, and the diversity of the territories from which al-Qaeda and its franchises operate.
