The 'new world order' and the profound changes in international politics resulting from the end of the rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union were initially thought to contribute to greater stability in the global system. A series of challenges, however, have been raised to the security of many nations.The first part of this book is primarily devoted to analysing the impact of the system of international relations on the fortunes of small states. The second part discusses the question 'what changes in the national strategy of small states are necessary in view of the new international system?' The authors of this volume come from various parts of the world and espouse differing outlooks. Nevertheless, they were able to coalesce around a similar theme in an effort to contribute to the international understanding of the special challenges that confront the world's small states.
