Escalation At Sea: Stability And Instability In Maritime East Asia, Ian Bowers Aug 2018

Escalation At Sea: Stability And Instability In Maritime East Asia, Ian Bowers

Naval War College Review

Low-level instability is to be expected with maritime boundary disputes or when power competition occurs at sea; however, sustained escalatory cycles are unlikely because of the characteristics of the maritime strategic environment.

Nationalism, Geopolitics, And Naval Expansionism From The Nineteenth Century To The Rise Of China, Robert S. Ross

Naval nationalism can encourage expansionist maritime policies, which can force acquisitions that are not informed by strategic interests and that ultimately undermine security and contribute to unnecessary and costly great-power conflict.

The Nature Of Military Strategy, Hiram M. Stout Aug 2018

The Nature Of Military Strategy, Hiram M. Stout

Naval War College Review

We are all familiar with the changes In warfare that have occurred since the dawn of recorded history. Some of these chan­ges have been matter of degree - larger and faster ships, more accurate weapons, quicker and more reliable means of communi­cation. Others have been changes of kind, changes so revolution­ary that all states maintaining military forces have had to adopt them or accept a condition of permanent Inferiority and perhaps even extinction of the state itself.


The Position Of Individuals In International Law, Herbert W. Briggs Aug 2018

The Position Of Individuals In International Law, Herbert W. Briggs

Naval War College Review

In the PELEUS War Crimes Trial, the British judge advo­cate characterized 'customary international law' as: "nothing but a body of rules and customs, expressing the common sense of civilized nations." I would like to make my first parenthetical remark at this point by saying that I have been tremendously impressed by the common sense approach of the draft Law Instruc­tions for Naval Warfare.


The Calculated Risk In Strategy, R. Gordon Hoxie Aug 2018

The Calculated Risk In Strategy, R. Gordon Hoxie

Naval War College Review

At the highest levels the science of warfare and statesmanship have always been inseparable, So, likewise, political and military strategy cannot be dissociated, particularly in the challenges we face and will continue to face with Communism.


Disarmament - The World's Enigma, Robert O. Coulthard Aug 2018

Disarmament - The World's Enigma, Robert O. Coulthard

Naval War College Review

Like war, disarmament is not a new concept. Its history runs concurrently with that of warfare. From the earliest days it has always been customary to dis­arm the conquered after his defeat in order to elim­inate future threats.

The Theory And Principles Of War, J. A. Huston Aug 2018

The Theory And Principles Of War, J. A. Huston

Naval War College Review

My theme this morning is stated to be "The Theory and Principles of War." I am going to try to consider just a little bit here something of the nature, the types, and the theory of war; something of the interrelationships between the use of force and policy in applying these theories; something as to how these apply to strategic considerations.


Concepts Of General And Limited War, R. E. Osgood Aug 2018

Concepts Of General And Limited War, R. E. Osgood

Naval War College Review

It is a great pleasure to be back again and to discover how much more you seem to know since I left. I am going to assume that your general level of sophistication in strategic matters ls so great that I can dispense with this terrible semantic bind of defining general and limited war and assume that no very precise definitions are necessary in order to get us off the ground.

Defeating Isis And Al-Qaeda On The Ideological Battlefield: The Case For The Corporation Against Ideological Violence, Michael W.S. Ryan

CIWAG Case Studies

Defeating ISIS and Al-Qaeda on the Ideological Battlefield: The Case for the Corporation Against Ideological Violence, by Dr. Michael W.S. Ryan, explores the radicalization process and the strategies employed by ISIS and al-Qaeda to recruit jihadists. In order to more effectively combat violent extremism and adversarial propaganda, a new federal agency with dedicated resources in the form of a public-private corporation should be created with the primary goal of subduing violent ideologies and countering the spread of violent extremism.

Belligerent Obligations Under Article 18(1) Of The Second Geneva Convention: The Impact Of Sovereign Immunity, Booty Of War, And The Obligation To Respect And Protect War Graves, Wolff Heintschel Von Heinegg

International Law Studies

Article 18(1) of the Second Geneva Convention requires parties to an international armed conflict, “after each engagement” and “without delay,” to “take all possible measures to search for and collect the wounded and sick, to protect them against pillage and ill-treatment, to ensure their adequate care, and to search for the dead and prevent their being despoiled.” This article focuses on the latter obligation: the duty to search for and collect the dead. It assesses this obligation in light of the International Committee of the Red Cross 2017 Commentary on the Second Geneva Convention, the first such commentary completed by …

The Updated Icrc Commentary On The Second Geneva Convention: Demystifying The Law Of Armed Conflict At Sea, Bruno Demeyere, Jean-Marie Henckaerts, Heleen Hiemstra, Ellen Nohle

International Law Studies

Since their publication in the 1950s and 1980s respectively, the Commentaries on the Geneva Conventions of 1949 and their Additional Protocols of 1977 have become a major reference for the application and interpretation of those treaties. The International Committee of the Red Cross, together with a team of renowned experts, is currently updating these Commentaries in order to document developments and provide up-to-date interpretations of the treaty texts. Following a brief overview of the methodology and process of the update as well as a historical background to the Second Geneva Convention, this article addresses the scope of applicability of the …

The Theory And Practice Of Insurgency And Counterinsurgency, Bernard B. Fall Jul 2018

The Theory And Practice Of Insurgency And Counterinsurgency, Bernard B. Fall

Naval War College Review

One of the problems one immediately faces is that of terminology. Obviously 'sublimited warfare' is meaningless, and 'insurgency' or 'counterinsurgency' hardly define the problem. But the definition that I think will fit the subject is 'revolutionary warfare' (RW).

The Guerrilla And His World Psychological Aspects Of Guerrilla Warfare, Howard R. Simpson Jul 2018

The Guerrilla And His World Psychological Aspects Of Guerrilla Warfare, Howard R. Simpson

Naval War College Review

In this age of nuclear power, advanced research, and mathematical models there has been a gradual depersonalization of warfare. It is easier and cleaner to work with figures than with a bayonet and to be once removed from the ugliness of physical combat by the clicking of a computer solution.
