Survival August-September 2021: Debating US Foreign Policy

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

In this issue:

• Daniel Deudney and G. John Ikenberry argue that liberal internationalism is more appropriate to contemporary global realities than the Quincy-coalition restraint

• James Crabtree explains why the West’s Build Back Better World partnership will be hard-pressed to compete with China’s Belt and Road Initiative

• Joelien Pretorius and Tom Sauer contend that if states are serious about nuclear disarmament, they should ditch the NPT and join the Ban Treaty instead

• Sameer Lalwani and Tyler Sagerstrom analyse what the India–Russia defence partnership means for US policy

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