dc.description.abstractNATO has proved to be an agile and resilient organization that has been able to adapt and renew in response to the evolving global order. NATO’s resilience has been anchored in a dual-track identity—existing simultaneously as a ‘collective defence alliance’ and a ‘community of values’. That dual identity has allowed NATO to perform reflexive self-governance with a significant degree of flexibility. This chapter focuses on three historical phases in the evolution of global order (1949–1991, 1991–2008, and 2008–2022) and demonstrates that the relationship between the Alliance and the global order is co-constitutive, but always tempered by the prevalent role identity of NATO at any given time. Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022, a new phase in the evolution of the global order looks set to bring NATO’s ‘collective defence’ identity to the fore.
