N2  - "Forging Partnership is an attempt at exploring and examining this and related issues within the ambit of national defense and collective security - including the necessity for them in the life of the nation, and their foundations in the Philippine Constitution and laws and in international law.

       The study commences with a discussion on the provisions of the Constitution relating to national defense and security and the conduct of defense cooperation and engagements with other countries. National defense preparedness is then examined in the context of a country's inherent right to individual and collective self-defense under international law as well as under the rubric of collective security." --From the Preface
