Alliances come and go, and most are cast into the dustbin of history. If NATO is to avoid this fate, it must not only address the major problems that trouble it, but also come to grips with future challenges to alliance cohesion and credibility, from Brexit to the emerging contest with China.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47363350823148,"sku":"9780745682624","price":42.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/13183373482453.jpg?v=1772921360"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/james-sperling.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
