What is power and how is it effective? This volume responds to these questions in terms of regional international relations with a particular focus on the Baltic Sea region, an area still charged with a residue of Cold War conflict and power disparity, in a setting of new cooperative ventures.

"The book emphasizes the region as such and its complex security challenges, seen in a longer-term perspective. Security is conceived of in the classical sense yet with a clear understanding of its links to the broader aspects."--BOOK JACKET. "Throughout the book, relations between the three Baltic states and Russia are, naturally, the centre of attention. The interaction of this conflict group both internally and with other states in the region is examined with regard to its Russian, Nordic and European aspects. The concluding chapter examines the issues in light of three philosophical traditions in the study of international politics."--Jacket
