After the end of the Cold War, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)redefined its self-image as an Alliance who would be dedicated to serving international peace and stability by embracing the principles of collective defense and cooperative security. After the Russo-Georgian War (2008) and the Ukrainian Crisis (2014) on one hand, to counter Russia’s aggressive policy, NATO has strengthened collective defense postures among the member states, on the other hand, under the principle of cooperative security, it has developed partnerships with the former Soviet Republics of Georgia and Ukraine. Russia has strongly opposed to these NATO’s developments, followed by military and diplomatic tensions between the two parties. By saying so, this article concludes that today’s NATO unexpectedly faces the challenges stemmed from its collective defense and cooperative security policies.

The aim of this paper is to analyze President George H. W. Bush's efforts to cope with the dispute over SNF modernization within the Western alliance in 1990.American decisions on the modernized tactical nuclear forces in Europe (i.e., FOTL and TASM), were expected to have brought about the intense debates within the Western alliance. In spite of the complicated circumstance driven by the Cold War's demise, Bush's administration fi nally succeeded in weathering the strained situation within the Western alliance. In this paper, I will investigate how Bush's administration solved the SNF modernization issue within the alliance and took the initiative in leading it in 1990, based upon some primary sources at George Bush Presidential Library and Museum. In this regard, three decisions (cancellations of FOTL and TASM, and announcement of Bush Initiative), will be examined. This paper will clarify that the former two decisions were affected by the "learning" factor of Bush's administration, and the latter one by the "structural" factor of international relations. In conclusion, this study will draw the decision making style of the Bush's administration as the "prudent realist".

The aim of this paper is to analyze President George H. W. Bush's efforts to solve the dispute over SNF (Short-range Nuclear Forces) modernization within the Western alliance early in 1989. Recently, many works on the end of the Cold War have been published, based on newly declassified documents. These studies, focusing on thespecific year "1989", aim to explain the international political process of German unification. Yet, many Cold War scholars don't pay enough attention to the details and impact of the SNF issue. To appreciate the process of the Cold War's demise, I think we have to revisit the SNF issue within NATO that occurred in early 1989, and which had a strong influence on the 41st President's administration. In this paper, I will investigate the political process of the SNF modernization dispute from the perspective of U.S. foreign policy, using some primary sources located at George Bush Presidential Library and Museum ( Collage Station, Texas). This paper will show that the administration struggled to relieve the strained situation over SNF modernization within the Western alliance and held a NATO summit successfully in May 1989.
