Unlike much of the previous literature that have covered small states’ channels of influence, this book focuses on the tensions created by the interaction of the national and international levels.
The book is innovative in focusing on the domestic dimension involved in determining the performance of small states in European security organisations, while not ignoring the transnational and international structural factors that shape the domestic level.
Offers new conceptual tools to advance the study of small states as well as detailed empirical material on various aspects of small states’ security policy in Europe.
