At the Congress of Phoenix held in May 1997, the New Atlantic Initiative (NAI) brought together world leaders, academics, journalists, and government officials from the United States and Europe to explore subjects vital to the future security and prosperity of democratic nations on both sides of the Atlantic.

This volume presents commentary by Margaret Thatcher, former prime minister of the United Kingdom; Jon L. Kyl, Republican senator from Arizona; and Paul Wolfowitz, dean of the Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University. Highlights from the discussions of NATO expansion, European political integration, missile proliferation and strategic defense, Russia, Turkey, Ukraine, and the Baltic States are also included.

Gerald Frost, editor of this volume, is the research director of the New Atlantic Initiative. An author and journalist, he has written extensively on political issues in the United States and Britain. He was director of the Centre for Policy Studies in London and founder-director of the Institute for European Defence and Strategic Studies.
