U.S.-Czech Missile Defense Cooperation--Alliance Politics in Action

U.S. Czech Missile Defense Cooperation: Alliance Politics in Action is a case study of U.S.-Czech ballistic missile defense cooperation between 2002 and 2011. The book advances understanding of factors that contribute to, or hamper, ballistic missile defense cooperation between two states in the context of alliance cooperation and management and maps Russia's influence operations during the same timeframe. More generally, the book develops a methodology to help policymakers assess and evaluate the progress their countries are making on missile defense cooperation, and alerts them to potential pitfalls that can derail it
