Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Text in English. 342 pp. The 2004 Strategic Yearbook of the Swedish National Defence College, this year in a joint venture with the Finnish National Defence College, is an effort to assess the security setting in which Finland and Sweden now find themselves in the Post Post-Cold War Age. This book identifies the milieu factors, opportunities and risks that now influence thinking in Finland and Sweden, and the different options and choices that are open to or will be forced upon the two nations. For both countries, the year 2004 will involve decisions about the shaping of their security and defence policies, about their "belonging" in the Nordic-Baltic Sea region and European security structure, as well as the forming of their respective national defence organisations in a long term perspective, in light of what they consider the strategy for a small state should now be. While it is always inevitable and legitimate in a Finnish-Swedish context to refer to the historical relationship between the countries, this study is intended to be forward looking, to provide guidance in identifying and evaluating possible directions of our future security policies.
