HARD POWER IN HARD TIMES - JANNE HAALAND MATLÁR...

This book analyses whether European leaders are able to deal with the 'hard power' problems of
military provocation  mass migration  and terrorism. Russia's 2014 annexation of Crimea was
just one example of recent revisionist policies by the state. In 2015  Europe experienced a
massive influx of illegal immigrants and refugees whilst also suffering many terrorist attacks
in recent years. Common to these policy challenges is the need for using hard power (military 
police) in order to confront  stop  stabilize and hinder undesirable outcomes. European
politicians are mostly used to wielding incentives-based policy and are unfamiliar with
strategic thinking. How well do the British  French  and German governments deal with this
triad of hard power problems? What about NATO and the EU? This book examines the responses to
determine whether European politicians can still act strategically.
