Coalitions: Building and Maintenance--Gulf War, Kosovo, Afghanistan, War on Terrorism

    ISD, 2002

This excellent overiew of an apt, complex and controversial subject will tell you what worked and what didn't in past efforts to build coalitions to deal with crises and conflict. The clear secret is that strategic thinking, good planning, and careful preparation spell out the difference between success and failure in this increasingly important field of international affairs. -- Thomas R. Pickering, U.S. Ambassador to the UN in the Gulf War, Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs during the Kosovo Conflict
