Colombia and NATO: A strategic alliance of deterrence or containment?. rev.relac.int.estrateg.segur. [online]. 2022, vol.17, n.1, pp.87-100.  Epub 30-Jun-2022.

As a result of the new threats that encompass the complex panorama of the contemporary international system, this paper proposes an analysis of the levels of Colombia’s security and defense policy strategy in terms of its alignment and incorporation as a strategic partner ofthe Organization of the North Atlantic Treaty (NATO). Colombia seeks to position itself in the regional and global geopolitical environment, and with this alliance it intends to become the ideological and strategic pivot in order to strengthen democracy in the hemisphere and counteract the political actions generated from some centers located in the Circum-Caribbean area. The analysis of deterrence and containment tools based on the association with NATO is proposed from the strategic level to conclude which one best fits this multilateral relationship.

Palavras-chave : North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO); strategy; containment; deterrence; international policy; Colombia.
