Shaped by often very dramatic events, international security and the international system have changed significantly in
recent years. The conclusion of the Cold War, the emergence of new political systems, the growth of significant threats
such as terrorism, and the development of new security doctrines have driven global transformation. These volumes
provide detailed information on countries from every geographic region and continent on the globe, evaluating their
relationship with the United States and measuring the potential security threats posed by each. The contributors
consider factors such as geography and history; the political systems of each state; their human rights records; the
ability to maintain law and order and provide security within their own borders; the impact of current administrations,
rulers, or regimes on a nation's foreign policy; and the regional factors that often dictate local politics, in order to
make their assessments.
