Know Thy Enemy: Profiles Of Adversary Leaders Andtheir Strategic Cultures,, Brenda L. Connors
Know Thy Enemy: Profiles Of Adversary Leaders Andtheir Strategic Cultures,, Brenda L. Connors
Naval War College Review
The devastating attack of 9/11 starkly revealed how the United States failed to understand its adversary and, by exten- sion, itself. The difficult, age-old chal- lenge for the United States to accurately assess foreign leaders has not changed, nor has its spotty track record of getting it right. It is a tough business getting at human identity and predicting the behavior of reclusive, complex characters to whom we have no access and who possess weapons of mass destruction. However, with America’s extraordinary resources one must ask why the United States has not brought to bear its best know-how to fill …
Corporate Warriors,, Richard Lacquement
Corporate Warriors,, Richard Lacquement
Naval War College Review
Corporate Warriors is a must read for military professionals and national se- curity experts. It opens a dialogue to a valuable aspect of national security that demands greater attention—the armed forces’ use of contractors. The frame- work Singer develops is especially worthwhile, and although many of his suggestions are often provocative, in some areas his analysis is flawed and the implications are loose and unsup- ported. Overall, however, this work is a superb effort to advance discussion on a critical topic.
The Art Of War,, Carnes Lord
The Art Of War,, Carnes Lord
Naval War College Review
Machiavelli’s classic, if now rarely read, The Art of War was probably the single most popular military treatise in Eu- rope prior to Jomini—Clausewitz was a professed admirer. At first sight, this book, with its appar- ent attempt to revive the infantry- centered military organization of the imperial Roman legions, seems hope- lessly irrelevant to present concerns. Even within its historical setting (it was originally published in 1521), Machiavelli’s work is often dismissed today for its alleged failure to appreci- ate the social and technological trends—particularly the growing im- portance of gunpowder—underpinning the “revolution in military affairs” of the sixteenth …

To The Edge Of Nowhere?, Gudni Th. Jóhannesson
Naval War College Review
In May 1951, the United States and Iceland signed an agreement on the permanent presence of American forces on the island. The arrangement was in many ways momentous. For the first time in its history, the United States had made a bilateral defense pact with another state. Also, troops were stationed in Iceland in peacetime for the first time since the settlement of the island over 1,100 years ago. When the first contingent arrived, a Bank of England official who dealt with Icelandic matters in London summed up the significance of its appearance by saying that from now on the …

Self-Inflicted Vulnerabilities, Stephen D. Wolthusen
Naval War College Review
One of the most prominent, if sometimes controversial, figures in software engineering resigned in 1985 from the Panel on Computing in Support of Battle Management of the Strategic Defense Initiative Office, publishing a series of essays declaring it unlikely that the program would meet the goals implicitly set forth by President Ronald Reagan for the SDI program.1 Two decades later, this assessment has gained in pertinence as transformation technologies be- come reality and reliance increases on network-centric operations and C4ISR* assets to achieve critical operational objectives. Concern has spread even to the level of individual tactical units, while the potential …
New Rules For War?, Joel Rosenthal
New Rules For War?, Joel Rosenthal
Naval War College Review
In launching a campaign to disarm and liberate Iraq, the United States has crossed, some say hurdled across, two thresholds—one strategic, the other diplomatic. Strategically, the United States delivered on its promise to act in self-defense, absent an actual or even imminent armed attack, against threats from weapons of mass destruction. Diplomatically, the United States demonstrated its willingness to act decisively and unilaterally, if nec- essary, in the face of strong opposition from its allies.
Jus Post Bellum, Louis V. Iasiello
Jus Post Bellum, Louis V. Iasiello
Naval War College Review
Coalition nations enjoyed swift and decisive military victories in Operations DESERT STORM, ENDURING FREEDOM, and most recently, IRAQI FREEDOM. 1 At first look, these decisive military victories should prove that in regard to America’s application of military force, it is no longer a question of if its military will win its major battles but of when and how: The outcome of war used to be the overriding question. Nowadays, when it is West vs. non-West, the vast disparity in economics, technology, materiel, training and or- ganization virtually assures a Western victory. This assumed, the attention focuses on very different matters, …
A Note From The Editors, The U.S. Naval Editors
A Note From The Editors, The U.S. Naval Editors
Naval War College Review
Few military professionals, or the states they serve, can in the present state of the world follow Erasmus to his logical conclusion—never to resort under any circumstances to war. Even the most peaceable and democratic governments too often face dilemmas in which, in light of information then at hand, the prospect of war seems not the worst possible outcome. Military people, at least in states where civilian control is firmly instituted, also do not have the decisive voice in the matter.
President’S Forum, R.A. Route
President’S Forum, R.A. Route
Naval War College Review
This is the fiftieth time that command of the Naval War College has been passed from one officer to another. The first occurred in August 1886, when Captain Alfred Thayer Mahan assumed the presidency fol- lowing Commodore Stephen B. Luce’s highly successful tour as the College’s founding President. It is fascinating to wonder what may have been on Mahan’s mind as he arrived on horseback in front of Founder’s Hall to begin his first day as President.

Naval War College Review
Vice Admiral Arthur K. Cebrowski, forty-seventh President of the Naval War College and later founding director of the Defense Department’s Office of Force Transformation, was the prime intellectual architect of U.S. military transformation and network-centric warfare. When he passed away on 12 November 2005, he joined the pantheon of American military innovators.

The Epistemology Of War Gaming, Robert C. Rubel
Naval War College Review
War games can produce valid knowledge, useful for planning and decisions, but they can also produce “valid-looking garbage.” There are principles that can help users and analysts tell the difference and avoid the pitfalls, but if game results are to merit reliably the confidence they are now given, the craft of gaming must become a profession.
China’S Maturing Navy, Eric A. Mcvadon
China’S Maturing Navy, Eric A. Mcvadon
Naval War College Review
A new and much more capable Chinese navy, especially its submarine force, is being acquired and deployed. It is not yet mature, but its rapid and impressive modernization is making it a navy that is arguably the only one that the U.S. Navy must deter or be able to defeat—unless, under other circumstances, it becomes a high-seas partner.
India In The Indian Ocean, Donald L. Berlin
India In The Indian Ocean, Donald L. Berlin
Naval War College Review
India has strengthened its position on the Indian Ocean’s littoral and among the ocean’s island nations. India also has become a more palpable presence in key maritime zones; its links with the most important external actors also have been strengthened. These are significant achievements, and they derive from India’s growing economic clout, maritime strength, and a surer hand in diplomacy. As this process unfolds further, it will have a transforming effect on the Indian Ocean basin and, eventually, the world.
The Proliferation Security Initiative—Cornerstone Of A New International Norm, Joel A. Doolin
The Proliferation Security Initiative—Cornerstone Of A New International Norm, Joel A. Doolin
Naval War College Review
The Proliferation Security Initiative (PSI), launched in 2003, is an international effort to limit the spread of weapons of mass destruction to rogue states and terrorists. With sixteen core member states and some sixty cooperating nations, it enjoys today many advantages of law and organization in coastal waters, but it lacks useful authority to interdict WMD on the high seas. PSI itself, however, represents an opportunity to alter international law and fill that critical gap.

This collection of ten essays is largely historical. Only three deal with current military education, and none focuses substantially on the future. Six examine European institutions, while three ad- dress military education in the United States and one recent change in Can- ada. The editors and authors are sea- soned historians; some teach at civilian institutions, some at military schools.

Prime Time Crime: Balkan Media In War And Peace,, Clemson G. Turregano
Naval War College Review
Solving the puzzle of the destruction of Yugoslavia is one of the dominant his- torical and political questions of our time. Prominent scholars, high-ranking military officers, and noted politicians all seem to be asking how an advanced confederation could fail so quickly and with such disastrous consequences. Kemel Kurspahic, the award-winning editor of the Sarajevo wartime daily newspaper Oslobodjenje, provides some important answers to this question with his firsthand account of media in the former Yugoslavia.
