"Future NATO completes a trilogy of security and defence publications in RUSI's Whitehall Paper series. The first - NATO and the North Atlantic: Revitalising Collective Defence (2017) - focuses on the renewed importance of the transatlantic bond from US, UK and Norwegian perspectives. The second - Security in Northern Europe: Deterrence, Defence and Dialogue (2018) - takes a broader view, analysing challenges confronting the 12 Northern Group countries, the US and Canada. Both papers were publicised through comprehensive outreach programmes and presented at seminars in 25 countries, with the objective of encouraging an informed and open debate on national policy and international relations with emphasis on the northern region. That debate served as an input for this third Whitehall Paper."

"Examining Benjamin Netanyahu's more than a decade-long period as Israel's Prime Minister, this important book evaluates the domestic politics and foreign policy of Israel from 2009-2019. This comprehensive study assesses Israel's main political parties, highlights the special position in Israel of Israel's Arab, Russian and religious communities, appraises Netanyahu's stewardship of Israel's economy, and analyzes Israel's foreign relations. The scholars contributing to the volume are leading experts from both Israel and the United States and represent a broad spectrum of viewpoints on Israeli politics and foreign policy. The case studies cover the Likud party, the non-religious opposition parties such as Labor, Meretz, and Yesh Atid, the Arab parties, the religious parties and the Russian-based Yisrael B'Aliyah party, and present analyses of the ups and downs of Israel's relations with the United States, the American Jewish Community, Iran, Europe, the Palestinians, the Arab World, Russia, China, India, and Turkey as well as Israel's challenges in dealing with terrorism. Another highlight of the book is an assessment of Netanyahu's leadership of the Likud party, which seeks to answer the question as to whether Netanyahu is a pragmatist interested in a peace deal with the Palestinians or an ideologue who wants Israel to hold on to the West Bank as well as all of Jerusalem. This volume will be of interest to readers who wish to understand the dynamics of Israel during Benjamin Netanyahu's time as Prime Minister and are interested in the history and politics of Israel and the Middle East"--
