Survival, the IISS's bimonthly journal, challenges conventional wisdom and brings fresh, often controversial, perspectives on strategic issues of the moment.

In this issue:

• Lawrence Freedman assesses Russia's nuclear red line and how Vladimir Putin's views compare to those of Russian pundits
• Steven Simon and Jonathan Stevenson explore the roots of Hamas's attack on Israel on 7 October, and the options available to the United States for restraining the Israeli government
• Charlie Laderman assesses the similarities between December 1941 - when Germany and Japan, determining it to be inevitable, declared war on the US - and the ongoing geopolitical crises governments face today
• Sara Bjerg Moller reflects on NATO allies' failure to deliver on national collective-defence targets as the Alliance approaches its 75th anniversary
• Lynn Kuok explores China's reshaping of international law to achieve its strategic goals, and other countries' failure to do so
• And seven more thought-provoking pieces, as well as our regular Book Reviews and Noteworthy column.
