Mar 30, Ireney Berezniak rated it really liked it Shelves: A New Power in Transatlantic Security is a compendium of a series of essays outlining Poland's role in NATO, the resulting impact on EUs security initiatives, and the state's aspirations towards the status of a major regional power.

The essays focus on the state of affairs leading up to , and as such serve solely as a historical insight into the existing geopolitical situation in Europe. Nonetheless, this work offers valuable background information for those relatively unfamiliar wit Poland: Merely 10 years after the banishment of the communist rule in , Poland ascended to the ranks of NATO after series of gruelling reforms and much political wrangling.

Even after the fall of communism in that country, Russia continued to assert its control by military means in places like Chechnya, for instance , and by economic means by controlling the flow and cost of natural resources, among other measures.

Developments in Russia and her aggressive stance towards her former satellites had influenced Polish policy and orientation towards a more defensive military development, despite encouragement of NATO otherwise. Furthermore, Poland had sought NATO almost exclusively in favor of the United States, believing that only that country could be relied upon as a security provider.
