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

In this issue:

  • François Heisbourg argues that the COVID-19 pandemic has reinforced the power of the state in its traditional role as protector of society from outside threats
  • Lawrence Freedman assesses that the UK misjudged the speed and severity of the pandemic, but ultimately followed the science
  • Gigi Kwik Gronvall describes the extraordinary global mobilisation of the scientific community as a source of hope amid the pandemic
  • Mark Fitzpatrick warns that US sanctions against Iran not only damage America's reputation, but also violate its moral duty to prevent further deaths of Iranians from COVID-19
  • And eight more thought-provoking pieces, as well as our regular book reviews and noteworthy column
