Biography
Aurel Braun is Professor of International Relations and Political Science at the University of Toronto. He has published extensively on communist affairs and strategic studies with a special focus on the problems of the transformation of the socialist systems in the former Soviet Union and in Eastern Europe. He is also a specialist in international law. He is the author and/or editor of several books, including Dilemmas of Transition; and The Extreme Right: Freedom and Security At Risk.
"Braun does an excellent job of providing broad coverage of this relationship, and at the same time recognizes the ongoing debate over the most appropriate diplomatic approach for building a new partnership with Russia as it increasingly adopts undemocratic practices. The book is also outstanding due to its wide coverage of NATO's evolution since September 11, as the alliance has taken on different missions and new partners and implemented a number of organizational reforms. This volume will be very useful to undergraduates and experts alike." - R. C. Hendrickson, Eastern Illinois University
