Strategic Survey is the annual review of world affairs from The International Institute for Strategic Studies. The book provides essential analysis of key events and issues in international affairs over the past year. It includes a chronology and a series of detailed maps highlighting topics and trends of particular interest. The International Institute For Strategic Studies, an independent think tank based in London, is the world's leading authority on political-military conflict.
"The Strategic Survey" is a journal of records that includes all relevant names and titles, chronologies and dates. But it is also much more: the hard facts are embossed in considered and nuanced analysis over 300 pages of text. "The Strategic Survey" opens with 'Perspectives', an assessment of the effect of major events and trends on the strategic landscape. Next, particular strategic policy issues, such as terrorism and weapons of mass destruction, missile defence and the future of peacekeeping, are examined in separate chapters.
