NATO ADAPTATION: FROM COLLECTIVE DEFENCE TO COLLECTIVE SECURITY?
Abstract
Since the end of the Cold War, NATO has been going through a permanent adaptation process that has changed NATO beyond recognition. Many scholars and politicians reached the conclusion that NATO had become an organization more similar to a collective security organization than a traditional military alliance. Although the changes in NATO were very fundamental, they do not justify such a radical conclusion. NATO is further focused on dealing with security threats coming from areas outside the territory of its member states. Moreover, despite NATO enlargement, this institution does not strive for membership inclusivity. Last but not least, Alliance in its institutional capacity has never tried to build a comprehensive regime prohibiting of using military force.
