Survival, the IISS’s bimonthly journal, challenges conventional wisdom and brings fresh, often controversial, perspectives on strategic issues of the moment.
In this issue:



Nick Childs assesses the ambitions and perils of the AUKUS partnership for Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States



Kimberly Marten explores how the demise of its key figures will affect future operations of the Wagner Group and similar Russian paramilitaries



Steven Feldstein investigates the uses and risks of generative-AI systems



From the Survival archives, the late Pierre Hassner interpreted Russia’s August 2008 attack on Georgia as signalling the emergence of a new cold war with the West



Dana H. Allin reflects on the European vision advanced by members of a rapidly disappearing generation of scholars who had lived through war and sought to preserve and extend peace



And eight more thought-provoking pieces, as well as our regular Book Reviews and Noteworthy column.
