Reviews for NATO and the Western Balkans: From Neutral Spectator to Proactive Peacemaker
The book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in NATO or the Yu-goslav wars. It is a comprehensive study of NATO's adjustment to the post-Cold War world, its almost reluctant involvement in the military interventions in Yugoslavia, and its subsequent leading role in peace-keeping missions. (Roos Hoebens, Sudosteuropa, Vol. 66 (1), 2018)
