Alliance Institutionalization and Alliance Performance
In: International interactions: empirical and theoretical research in international relations, Band 31, Heft 3, S. 183-202
ISSN: 1547-7444
Military alliances are formed with varying degrees of institutionalization. While some alliances involve little initial investment or joint planning, others involve significant peacetime costs in establishing formal structures & engaging in military coordination. Several scholars have addressed the reasons states are willing to pay these governance costs in establishing cooperation -- through controlling the risks of opportunism & coordinating policy more extensively, state leaders may be able to achieve higher benefits from cooperation. What has received less systematic empirical attention, however, is the comparative performance of highly institutionalized alliances. Are alliances that represent "deeper" cooperation more reliable than their less institutionalized counterparts? The newly expanded Alliance Treaty Obligations & Provisions (ATOP) dataset includes detailed information about the institutionalization of alliances formed between 1815 & 1989. Using these data, we evaluate the effects of institutionalization on alliance performance. Surprisingly, we find no evidence that alliances with higher levels of peacetime military coordination or more formal alliances are more reliable when invoked by war. We speculate about directions for future research that might help to explain these results. Tables, References. Adapted from the source document.

This chapter provides an overview of the literature on alliances. It discusses the classical scholarship dealing with the formation of alliances and their impact on the international system, but also assesses trending debates on the relationship between alliances and, on the one hand, the maintenance of international order, and on the other, the nature of multinational military interventions. The study of alliances has traditionally focused on states and war, with alliances being a tool with which the former could manage the latter. In recent years, the field has widened, taking into account alliances' evolving and contested relationship to both broader collective security institutions and narrower and supposedly more effective coalitions. As they change in character, alliances will continuously define the frontier between cooperation and conflict and be of central concern to security studies scholars. alliances, coalitions, multinational military interventions, security cooperation, collective security, international order, NATO

This article presents a simple cooperative game theory representation of alliance formation and expansion to counter a conventional threat along the allies' borders. Mutual defense gains, derived from allying, arise from interior borders that no longer require protection. Spatial and locational attributes of the allies are crucial when identifying the gains from mutual defense and the distribution of these gains. The same number of allies can have vastly different cores depending on their spatial configurations. Extensions to the baseline case consider transaction costs, natural defenses, guerrilla warfare, and risk concerns. An application to the NATO alliance indicates that the theory has much to say about which additional Partnership for Peace countries are likely to join NATO after the three Visegrad countries.

The strategic alliances fieldbook: the art of agile alliances
"The Strategic Alliances Fieldbook: The Art of Agile Alliances is for technology and professional services practitioners and executives seeking faster value from their partnerships as traditional alliances are changing rapidly in form and tempo. Digitising customer channels and internal operations has been a long-running initiative for most companies, and the global Covid-19 pandemic has accelerated the urgency and budgets associated with the digital transformations that technology and professional services companies support. The Strategic Alliances Fieldbook compiles a century of the authors' experience of leading joint businesses to solve the problem of how to go fast and avoid common issues that delay alliances. The reader will get a detailed analysis of professional services companies and technology companies and how the dynamics of their collective culture and operating model are shaped when working in partnership. The book provides a 'Blueprint': a library of methods that includes 15 templates which can be applied to accelerate any alliance. The book also includes 19 case studies to illustrate real-life situations. This book is particularly relevant to executives involved in partnership initiatives, specifically in professional services and technology firms, and can be read in conjunction with The Strategic Alliance Handbook by Mike Nevin"--
Alliance versus clash: Alliance of civilations and turkey
The purpose of this study is to show an alternative model to the clash approaches developed by Huntington and called "Clash of Civilizations". But the main focus of this paper is on "Alliance of Civilizations" that is one of the major attempts of our day to bring different cultures and civilizations together and its effects toward Turkish Foreign Policy. The paper also investigates the future of Turkish Foreign Policy in terms of axis shift discussions. The study's conclusion is that Turkey uses Alliance of Civilizations project to affect his surrounding countries as a soft power tool and this initiative increases the strength and legitimacy of Turkey both in world politics and in the domestic realm.
