The authors who take up the topic of challenges that NATO has to face usually approach this issue in a “technical” way. While discussing the resolutions of the next NATO’s summits, they specify the needs articulated during such summits and suggest, at the same time, that fulfilling these needs will be identical to NATO’s preparedness to face what the future will bring. However, rarely do scholars touch upon the issue of further raison d’être of the organisation which has explicit “cold war” origins and the issue of the structural challenges that it has to face in the conditions of a radical change of global security architecture. The author’s intention was to trigger off such an exchange of views which would be based upon the assumption that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization is currently in an important phase of its history and within the next few years it will be resolved whether NATO will remain an efficient organisation able to effectively act and to build security in its surrounding or perhaps it will become the next “discussion panel” which has military instruments but which will be unable to use them.
