This paper examines the future of the consensus rule in NATO's decision-making process. The author argues that influential Americans are asking whether the consensus rule impedes the ability of NATO to make rapid and effective decisions - especially on military operations. The paper concludes that a balance needs to be found between the desire for efficient military action in response to common threats and the need to ensure that all members have a chance to be heard.
