Baltic Rim Economies 2/2023: a thorough review of safety and security issues in BSR
The latest Baltic Rim Economies focuses on Safety and Security issues in the Baltic Sea Region. The 54 writers represent research institutes, governmental bodies, military organisations, and other interest groups from the Baltic Sea countries to USA. Many of the topics rotate around NATO and the new security environment in the Northern Europe, but the other themes include the EU’s security policy and possibilities in the future and the differing approaches of the European countries of their own position in the new security situation in Europe. But in the security issues local is global, so even China’s influence is debated. The Russian attack on Ukraine has clearly shown the new era of warfare and security threats. Thus, many writers also focus on hybrid warfare and cyber security. The importance of understanding the weaponization of the social media is a theme in one the articles.
Baltic Rim Economies with its safety and security themes is a perfect warm-up for coming 15th Baltic Sea Region Forum, which also concentrates to the same themes. More about the Forum in here: The Baltic Sea Region Forum
