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

In this issue:

· Lawrence Freedman assesses the sufficiency of the British and French nuclear deterrents for Europe in light of Russian revanchism and the United States’ strategic distancing from Europe

· Bence Nemeth argues that, as speed becomes more critical than funding for European defence, front-line states in particular should undertake national military preparations before focusing on multinational integration

· Mariya Grinberg examines how the development of nuclear weapons has discouraged future use of economic warfare

· Steven Simon appraises Trump’s first hundred days and the tenuousness of the American project

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