Routledge Europe Small Navies Maritime Security - 21st Century Strategy

This comprehensive volume examines the critical role of small European navies in addressing contemporary maritime security challenges. The book identifies gaps in understanding how Europe's predominantly small naval forces manage both traditional threats and emerging security concerns within the broader European security framework. By analysing areas of commonality and difference amongst European navies, the work argues that comprehensive maritime strategy and European security analysis require serious consideration of small naval capabilities and actions. Published by Routledge as part of the Corbett Centre for Maritime Policy Studies Series, this text provides essential insights into how smaller naval forces contribute to regional stability whilst balancing conventional defence roles with modern non-traditional security threats.
