This title examines the viability of non-provocative defence - the controversial idea that defensive military policies and practices reduce the risk of wars and provide a viable basis for defending a society should war break out. Drawing on case studies from Europe, the 1991 Persian Gulf War, and Asia Pacific, the author concludes that non-provocative defence concepts remain relevant and that they can help in deterring conducting, and settling wars.
