Abstract:

This study makes the case that collective security is a viable concept that can contribute to the success of our national military strategy provided that 1 a clear, conceptual distinction is made between collective security and collective defense 2 the two concepts are viewed as reinforcing rather than antithetical and, therefore, 3 collective security and collective defense can be integrated to form transregional security linkages through existing multinational organizations--a seamless web of collective action.
