Survival June-july 2021

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

In this issue:

• Anatol Lieven argues that the Taliban will remain the most powerful military and political force among the Pashtuns of Afghanistan

• Lanxin Xiang contends that, following what he describes as Donald Trump?s racist China policy, the Biden administration must avoid casting China as an alien threat

• Dani Filc and Sharon Pardo assess that right-wing populists in Israel and Europe have become ideological allies, harnessing ethnic nationalism against global Islam

• Alex J. Bellamy and Charles T. Hunt analyse the intricacies of the use of force to protect civilians in UN peacekeeping missions

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