Learning From The Stones: A Go Approach To Mastering China's Strategic Concept, Shi, David Lai Dr.
Learning From The Stones: A Go Approach To Mastering China's Strategic Concept, Shi, David Lai Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
To help with the process of identifying those new and untested strategic concepts that merit further examination, the Strategic Studies Institute is publishing a special series called "Advancing Strategic Thought." This provides a venue--a safe haven--for creative, innovative, and experimental thinking about national security policy and military strategy. In this monograph, the author uses the ancient game of Go as a metaphor for the Chinese approach to strategy. He shows that this is very different than the linear method that underlies American strategy. By better understanding Go, he argues, American strategies could better understand Chinese strategy.
Iraq And Vietnam: Differences, Similarities, And Insights, Jeffrey Record Dr., W. Andrew Terrill Dr.
Iraq And Vietnam: Differences, Similarities, And Insights, Jeffrey Record Dr., W. Andrew Terrill Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
U.S. political and military difficulties in Iraq have prompted comparisons to the American war in Vietnam. The authors conclude that the military dimensions of the two conflicts bear little comparison. Among other things, the sheer scale of the Vietnam War in terms of forces committed and losses incurred dwarfs that of the Iraq War. They also conclude, however, that failed U.S. state-building in Vietnam and the impact of declining domestic political support for U.S. war aims in Vietnam are issues pertinent to current U.S. policy in Iraq.

The Exigencies Of Global, Integrated Warfare: The Evolving Role Of The Cjcs And His Dedicated Staff, Michael S. Bell Ltc
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
In order to better understand the character and enduring attributes of the position of Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and inform future Defense reform initiatives in the post 9/11 era, the author traces the Chairman's evolving role since the inception of the position during World War II through the Goldwater-Nichols reforms of the 1980s. Although Defense reformers often focus on more efficient business and budgeting practices, his narrative compels greater consideration of the value of apolitical military advice, civilian direction of policy, and legislative oversight on the military instrument of power. The position of the Chairman of the …

Toward An American Way Of War, Antulio J. Echevarria Dr.
Toward An American Way Of War, Antulio J. Echevarria Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The author examines the principal characteristics and ideas associated with the American way of war, past and present. He argues that Americans do not have a way of war, but rather a way of battle. LTC Echevarria contends that moving from a way of battle to a way of war will require some fundamental thinking about the roles of the grammar and logic of war, about the nature of U.S. civil-military relations, and about the practical resources necessary to translate military victory into strategic success.

Security In The Americas: Neither Evolution Nor Devolution--Impasse, Max G. Manwaring Dr.
Security In The Americas: Neither Evolution Nor Devolution--Impasse, Max G. Manwaring Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The author identifies the strategic-political challenge of effective sovereignty and security, with a focus on nontraditional threats. He recommends that leaders rethink the problem of nontraditional threats and develop the conceptual and strategic-political multilateral responses necessary to deal effectively with them. Piecemeal tactical-operational level responses to nontraditional threats and actors must be supplemented by broader political-strategic efforts. Additionally, cooperative national and international efforts designed to inhibit and reverse the processes of state failure must supplement military and law-enforcement emphasis on the attrition of individual "narco-terrorists." The author's recommendations constitute no easy task. However, if the United States and the other …

Reconfiguring The American Military Presence In Europe, Raymond A. Millen Ltc
Reconfiguring The American Military Presence In Europe, Raymond A. Millen Ltc
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The author examines America's options regarding the basing of ground troops in Europe and considers three major options available to the United States--complete withdrawal, annual rotations, and restructuring the Alliance to accommodate a smaller U.S. presence. While weighing the advantages and disadvantages of each option, he does not lose sight of the ultimate objective of NATO--to provide credible land power for the full spectrum of operations. He introduces a NATO 3-3 Force Structure concept that rests on a smaller NATO ground force adaptive to the capabilities and wealth of member states; increases interoperability (technologically and procedurally); and supports the expeditionary …
Countering Global Terrorism: Developing The Antiterrorist Capabilities Of The Central Asian Militaries, Roger N. Mcdermott Mr.
Countering Global Terrorism: Developing The Antiterrorist Capabilities Of The Central Asian Militaries, Roger N. Mcdermott Mr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The author offers a framework for improving the antiterrorist capabilities of the Central Asian militaries, including increased and focused military training with a special emphasis on Special Forces units. The training should take place within a regional train and equip program to increase effectiveness and efficiency. But, he argues, all assistance to the Central Asian states must complement broader diplomatic efforts to promote social, economic, and political reform.
Insurgency In Nepal, Thomas A. Marks Dr.
Insurgency In Nepal, Thomas A. Marks Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
Insurgencies in the 21st century are different than the Cold War era ones that generated existing doctrine and strategy, and which shaped the way that most American strategists think about insurgency. The beast has mutated and evolved. So, too, must those who confront it. To help Army and Department of Defense leaders master these new challenges, the Strategic Studies Institute publishes a special series entitled "Insurgency and Counterinsurgency in the 21st Century." This monograph, which assesses the growing insurgency in Nepal with its potential to further destabilize an already volatile region, is a path-breaking and an excellent inaugural effort in …
The Future Of The Australian-U.S. Security Relationship, Rod Lyon Dr., William T. Tow Prof.
The Future Of The Australian-U.S. Security Relationship, Rod Lyon Dr., William T. Tow Prof.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The authors assess the future of the Australian-U.S. security relationship within the context of the Canberra's transformation and strategic shift. They conclude that this relationship will remain important and will be strengthened in some ways--interdependence will be central to Australian strategy--but they consider the building of large-scale American military bases in Australia unlikely. The challenge, they note, will be sustaining political support within Australian for this type of relationship.
Bounding The Global War On Terrorism, Jeffrey Record Dr.
Bounding The Global War On Terrorism, Jeffrey Record Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The author examines three features of the war on terrorism as currently defined and conducted: (1) the administration's postulation of the terrorist threat, (2) the scope and feasibility of U.S. war aims, and (3) the war's political, fiscal, and military sustainability. He believes that the war on terrorism--as opposed to the campaign against al-Qaeda--lacks strategic clarity, embraces unrealistic objectives, and may not be sustainable over the long haul. He calls for downsizing the scope of the war on terrorism to reflect concrete U.S. security interests and the limits of American military power.
