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

In this issue:

· Anatol Lieven argues that realist support for prudence and restraint in foreign policy does not equate to chauvinism, isolationism and opposition to international cooperation

· Toby Dodge assesses that the United States' attempt to comprehensively transform Afghanistan was based on its erroneous presumption that the liberal-peacebuilding model was universally applicable

· Audrey Kurth Cronin contends that the logic of fighting terrorists far from the US homeland no longer holds, as the US faces resource constraints and rising domestic terrorism

· Jens Ringsmose and Sten Rynning analyse the potential priorities and scope of NATO's next Strategic Concept, and how it can bridge the Alliance's political–military divide

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