Russia, Iran, And The Nuclear Question: The Putin Record, Robert O. Freedman Dr. Nov 2006

Russia, Iran, And The Nuclear Question: The Putin Record, Robert O. Freedman Dr.

Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies

The author analyzes the Russo-Iranian relationship through the spring of 2006. This issue is vitally important in U.S. foreign policy, not just as it relates to Iran and the overall issue of nonproliferation, especially in the Middle East, but also as U.S. foreign policy pertains to relations with Moscow. Thus this monograph should also be read in light of the current crisis with Iran and bearing in mind the dimensions of Iranian proliferation and the issues surrounding it. At the same time, the numerous challenges to regional security in the Middle East, and the addition of great power rivalry to …


Defense Transformation: To What, For What?, Kevin Reynolds Colonel Nov 2006

Defense Transformation: To What, For What?, Kevin Reynolds Colonel

Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies

“What form is transformation taking and what end(s) are the armed forces transforming to obtain?” The author argues that U.S. foreign and national security policies should drive the pace and direction of defense transformation, but finds that all too often the military’s weapons systems preferences determine the shape and form of the armed services transformation and their future capability sets. Due to the lengthy Research, Development, Testing, and Evaluation (RDT&E) time to acquire technologically advanced weapons systems, up to and beyond 20 years in many instances, future administrations will inherit weapons systems and force structures that, although recently fielded, were …

Confronting The Unconventional: Innovation And Transformation In Military Affairs, David Tucker Dr. Oct 2006

Confronting The Unconventional: Innovation And Transformation In Military Affairs, David Tucker Dr.

Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies

Are there limits to military transformation? Or, if it seems obvious that there must be limits to transformation, what are they exactly, why do they arise, and how can we identify them so that we may better accomplish the transformation that the U.S. military is capable of? If limits to military change and transformation exist, what are the broader implications for national policy and strategy? The author offers some answers to these questions by analyzing the efforts of the French, British, and Americans to deal with irregular threats after World War II.


Strategic Challenges For Counterinsurgency And The Global War On Terrorism, Williamson Murray Dr. Sep 2006

Strategic Challenges For Counterinsurgency And The Global War On Terrorism, Williamson Murray Dr.

Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies

In March 2006, President George W. Bush signed a new National Security Strategy that he refers to as a “wartime national security strategy” and states that to follow the path the United States has chosen, we must “maintain and expand our national strength.” One way to do this is to study and propose solutions to the complex challenges the United States faces in the 21st century. At the U.S. Army War College, the students have embraced this challenge and spend a year developing their intellectual strength in areas that extend well beyond the familiar operational and tactical realm to which …

2006 Key Strategic Issues List (Ksil), Antulio J. Echevarria Dr. Jul 2006

2006 Key Strategic Issues List (Ksil), Antulio J. Echevarria Dr.

Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies

In today’s dynamic strategic environment, political changes can become challenges very quickly. Any list of key strategic issues must, therefore, include the broadest array of regional and functional concerns. This is a catalogue of significant issues, arranged as potential research topics, of concern to U.S. policymakers. KSIL entries are intended to be general enough for researchers to modify or expand appropriately, and to adapt to a variety of methodologies. While the list of general topics is broad, it is neither comprehensive nor restrictive. Researchers are encouraged to contact any of the SSI points of contact, or those found in the …


U.S. Army War College Guide To National Security Policy And Strategy, 2nd Edition, J. Boone Bartholomees Dr. Jun 2006

U.S. Army War College Guide To National Security Policy And Strategy, 2nd Edition, J. Boone Bartholomees Dr.

Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies

This edition of the U. S. Army War College Guide to National Security Policy and Strategy reflects to some extent recent changes in the structure of the core curriculum at the War College. The college broke its traditional core course, “War, National Policy and Strategy,” into two courses: “Theory of War and Strategy” and “National Security Policy and Strategy.” The result for this book is the expansion of the block on strategic theory and the introduction of a block on specific strategic issues. Because little time has past since the publication of the most recent version of this book, this …
