<br/><br/> Non-provocative defence is the concept that defensive military policies and practices reduce the risk of wars and provide a viable basis for defending a society should war break out. This book examines the viability of the concept by considering case studies from Europe, the Gulf War of 1990-91 and the Asia Pacific (the later deals briefly with Japan, China, Indonesia, Singapore, and Australia).
