Survival: December - January 2023 - The International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) - Bog

Survival, the IISS's bimonthly journal, challenges conventional wisdom and brings fresh, often controversial, perspectives on strategic issues of the moment.
In this issue:

Emile Hokayem contends that strategic divergence between the United States and Saudi Arabia over Iran, regional security and global competition has strained the countries' relationship
Mahsa Rouhi argues that the ongoing protests in Iran triggered by the death of Mahsa Amini are characterised by an unprecedented level of solidarity across the country
James Crabtree examines the challenge faced by US policymakers in seeking to build partnerships with like-minded countries in the Indo-Pacific while simultaneously reassuring non-aligned countries that this will not trigger a regional conflict
George Magnus makes the case that the consequences of China's economic problems, including a real-estate bust and high levels of income inequality, will extend far beyond its borders
Suzanne Claeys and Heather W. Williams argue for the necessity of nuclear-arms-control arrangements involving the US and Russia and China, even if now is not the time to negotiate formal treaties And six more thought-provoking pieces, as well as our regular Book Reviews and Noteworthy column.
