Aniseh Bassiri Tabrizi
In this article, Aniseh Bassiri Tabrizi argues that, in the aftermath of Brexit, informal groups of states are likely to become a frequently adopted tool for EU member states when dealing with foreign policy issues. Because of their features, such frameworks enable the UK to continue to cooperate with the EU on an ad hoc basis on areas of mutual concern. Further, they grant a much-needed flexibility compared with treaty-based provisions.

Whether the reader agrees or disagrees with Hartley’s preferences in terms of economic analysis, the book presents straightforwardly and with examples the major dynamics characterising the arms industry and the way it works (especially in large Western arms-producing countries), and explores some of the specific obstacles and challenges that come with its assessment and analysis.

Edward Hunter Christie
Abstract In this article, Edward Hunter Christie sheds light on the extent to which Russia’s economic trajectory may enable or constrain its military modernisation goals. It adds to existing research by using quantitative scenarios and counterfactual analyses of the state’s fiscal conditions under different assumed levels of ambition for defence procurement spending. This approach leads to a more evidence-based assessment of the policy preferences of the Russian leadership. It also provides an objective basis for evaluating Russia’s fiscal capacity to fulfil its ambitions in a mid-term perspective.
