“…45 Building on this insight, other scholars argue that NATO's 21 st century troubles are best answered by a global design for NATO that will support US global strategy and, more broadly, the international liberal order. 46 This analysis suggests in contrast that globalism makes it inherently difficult for NATO allies to give political meaning to their intra-alliance consultations. Globalism, rather, is a recipe for the steady dissolution of alliance ties.…”

NATO allies have since the inception of the alliance sought to establish an Atlanticist habit of political consultation to prevent political go-it-alone drift on the part of key allies and help define NATO in regard to major strategic issues. Today, observers dispute the ability of Atlanticism to sustain the Alliance. This article reviews the history and current politics of Atlanticist consultations to assess the conditions under which consultations are most likely to serve as a force of alliance continuity. The article argues that European allies have become accustomed to an incremental Atlanticist approach that no longer serves them well. Reviewing Atlanticist history, the article suggests how Europe can leap forward to revive the tradition of consultations. It involves a balancing act for Europe between on the one hand expanded power to manage global issues such as the rise of China and on the other limited ambitions of strategic autonomy. NATO's future ability to sustain itself by political consultations, the article argues, is hostage to this balancing act and the support accorded to it by all allies.

“…Daalder and Goldgeier 2006). ZOPACAS aspires to make the rejection of nuclear weapons, the peaceful resolution of conflicts, and self-governance by the South into norms, but these remain ambitions, and ZOPACAS' functional and geostrategic priorities shift on an ad hoc basis according to the impulses of key actors.…”

“…The discussion between a 'global NATO' and a 'regional NATO' has been recurrent throughout the organization's identity-searching process; see, for example, the widely cited article by Daalder and Goldgeier (2006). For an opposing Portuguese view to an excessive dispersion of NATO's focus, see Gaspar (2010).…”

Due to an extensive historical-maritime tradition, Portugal has long considered the South Atlantic as an ocean of possibilities for the projection of its envisioned influence in the near abroad. This article, however, seeks to analyse how such claims fit new security developments in the South Atlantic. It begins by briefly assessing the current main threats in the South Atlantic, followed by a review of Portugal's strategic guidelines and perceptions towards this same area. The preferred venues for the fulfilment of the country´s Atlantic expectations are then addressed by means of Portuguese technical-military co-operation with Lusophone African countries and Portuguese attempts to make NATO look southwards. The country's overall goals are contrasted with the unique positioning of Brazil towards the South Atlantic, as a token of existing perspectives not entirely coincident with Portugal's own aims. Some final remarks are then drawn regarding the sustainability of these expectations and the need to calibrate them in light of an evolving security context in South Atlantic waters.
