Facing The Hydra: Maintaining Strategic Balance While Pursuing A Global War Against Terrorism, Conrad C. Crane Dr.
Facing The Hydra: Maintaining Strategic Balance While Pursuing A Global War Against Terrorism, Conrad C. Crane Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The author analyzes the impact of the war on terrorism and the requirements of the 2001 Quadrennial Defense Review on the many essential missions conducted by the U.S. Armed Forces. Focusing primarily on the Army, he highlights the requirements associated with combat operations against terrorists, accelerating transformation and the new emphasis on homeland security and force protection. At the same time, he points out that the Army and the other Services must remain involved worldwide in day-to-day assurance, dissuasion, and deterrence activities; execution of peace operations and other smaller-scale contingencies; and remaining ready for other major combat operations. The author …
Nonstate Actors In Colombia: Threat And Response, Max G. Manwaring Dr.
Nonstate Actors In Colombia: Threat And Response, Max G. Manwaring Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
Colombia's deeply rooted and ambiguous warfare has reached crisis proportions in that Colombia's "Hobbesian Trinity" of illegal drug traffickers, insurgents, and paramilitary organizations are creating a situation in which life is indeed "nasty, brutish, and short." The first step in developing a macro-level vision, policy, and strategy to deal with the Colombian crisis in a global context is to be clear on what the Colombian crisis is, and what the fundamental threats implicit (and explicit) in it are. Political and military leaders can start thinking about the gravity of the terrorist strategy employed by Colombia's stateless adversaries from this point. …
China And Strategic Culture, Andrew Scobell Dr.
China And Strategic Culture, Andrew Scobell Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The author examines the impact of strategic culture on 21st century China. He contends that the People's Republic of China's security policies and its tendency to use military force are influenced not only by elite understandings of China's own strategic tradition, but also by their understandings of the strategic cultures of other states. Gaining a fuller appreciation for how Chinese strategists view the United States and Japan, our key ally in the Asia-Pacific, will better enable us to assess regional and global security issues.
Defining And Achieving Decisive Victory, Colin S. Gray Dr.
Defining And Achieving Decisive Victory, Colin S. Gray Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The author explores the concept of victory in the war in terrorism, but he does so by placing it within the larger currents of change that are sweeping the global security environment. He contends that the time-tested idea of decisive victory is still an important one, but must be designed very carefully in this dangerous new world. To do so correctly can provide the foundation for an effective strategy. To fail to do so could be the first step toward strategic defeat.
The Inescapable Global Security Arena, Max G. Manwaring Dr.
The Inescapable Global Security Arena, Max G. Manwaring Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The author outlines the violent characteristics of the new security-stability environment and briefly examines the problem of terrorism and the related problem of governance. Then he analyzes the complex threat and response situation and outlines a multidimensional response to these problems. Finally, he enumerates some civil-military implications for playing effectively in the contemporary global security arena. His recommendations focus on the interagency and the military in general, and the U.S. Army in particular.
Beyond Nunn-Lugar: Curbing The Next Wave Of Weapons Proliferation Threats From Russia, Thomas Riisager Mr., Henry D. Sokolski Mr.
Beyond Nunn-Lugar: Curbing The Next Wave Of Weapons Proliferation Threats From Russia, Thomas Riisager Mr., Henry D. Sokolski Mr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The chapters in this book were originally commissioned by the Nonproliferation Policy Education Center (NPEC) as part of a study on the future of U.S.-Russian nonproliferation cooperation. This book is different from other studies of U.S.-Russian cooperation because it relies on competitive strategies, which detail how best to pit one's strengths against a competitor's weaknesses in a series of moves and countermoves. The goal is to devise strategies that force one's competitor to spend more time and resources shoring up his weaknesses than in taking offensive action.

The Past As Prologue: A History Of U.S. Counterinsurgency Policy In Colombia, 1958-66, Dennis M. Rempe Mr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The author outlines the history of U.S. counterinsurgency policy and the recommendations made by U.S. Special Survey Teams in Colombia from 1958-66. An examination of that history and the concomitant recommendations indicates that a review of that record would be in order. This monograph comes at a time when the United States is seriously considering broadening its policy toward Colombia and addressing Colombia's continuing internal war in a global and regional context. Thus, it provides a point of departure from which policymakers in the United States and Colombia can review where we have been, where we are, and where we …
The Rise Of China In Asia: Security Implications, Carolyn Pumphrey Dr.
The Rise Of China In Asia: Security Implications, Carolyn Pumphrey Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
In March 2001 the U.S. Army War College, the Triangle Institute for Strategic Studies, and Duke University's Program in Asian Security Studies cosponsored a conference which examined the security implications of the rise of China for the international community in general and for the United States in particular. This book, which includes an introduction and 12 papers from the conference, comprises some of the major findings of participants and attendees. Sections of the book address China as a rising power, China as a security threat, the other Asian powers in relation to China, the flashpoints in East and South Asia, …
Defeating Terrorism: Strategic Issue Analyses, John R. Martin Professor
Defeating Terrorism: Strategic Issue Analyses, John R. Martin Professor
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
Within only a few days after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, the U.S. Army War College initiated a series of short studies addressing strategic issues in the war on terrorism. This collection of essays analyzes a broad array of subjects of great strategic importance. This volume provides historical documentation of some of the advice given the military leadership in the early days of the war, but it also continues to be a source of solid strategic analysis as the war lengthens and perhaps broadens.
Colombian Army Adaptation To Farc Insurgency, Thomas A. Marks Dr.
Colombian Army Adaptation To Farc Insurgency, Thomas A. Marks Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The author points out that Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) insurgents actively are pursuing a strategy to mobilize the disaffected and disposed people of Colombia, and to control the entire national territory. At the same time, he argues that no one in the national political establishment has taken the initiative to conduct an appropriate effort to deny FARC its objective. As a result, the Colombian Army has been left alone to direct the fight, without a coordinated and integrated national campaign plan or other resources that would allow for success. The author concludes that the Army has bought time, …
The Intervention Debate: Towards A Posture Of Principled Judgment, John Garofano Dr.
The Intervention Debate: Towards A Posture Of Principled Judgment, John Garofano Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The author argues that American policymakers must take an approach based on "principled judgment" when deciding on the use of force. The 1990s showed the extremes of deciding when and how to use force, one of the central elements of strategy. Throughout American history, debate has raged over whether force is appropriate only in defense of the homeland and vital national interests or whether it should also be used to promote more expansive objectives like regional security and stopping humanitarian disasters in regions with few tangible U.S. interests. He concludes with a discussion of Army roles and requirements for future …

Colombia's Paramilitaries: Criminals Or Political Force?, David Spencer Mr.
Colombia's Paramilitaries: Criminals Or Political Force?, David Spencer Mr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The intent of this monograph was to explore the multiple dimensions of Colombia's ongoing crisis and inform the public debate regarding the challenges faced by the statesmen, intellectuals, military strategists, and others who take on the responsibility to deal with that crisis. Hopefully, it will also generate serious reflection about the tough choices Colombian, U.S., and other global leaders face. The author points out, first, that the Colombian paramilitary self-defense forces represent some important sectors of society, and enjoy more popular support from Colombian society than the insurgents. Second, the paramilitaries have developed into a powerful irregular force that is …
Esdp And Missile Defense: European Perspectives For More Balanced Transatlantic Partnership, Martin Aguera Mr.
Esdp And Missile Defense: European Perspectives For More Balanced Transatlantic Partnership, Martin Aguera Mr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
Security cooperation with Europe has been the bedrock of American strategy for more than 50 years. Today, that relationship is undergoing both stress and refinement as Europe moves toward a more unified political and security identity, and as the United States responds to a changing global security environment. While many issues have the potential to complicate U.S.-European security cooperation, few are more pressing than the U.S. pursuit of missile defense and Europe's construction of European Security and Defense Policy (ESDP). The author explains the relationship between missile defense and ESDP and shows that, rather than serving as wedges between the …

Transforming Defense An Era Of Peace And Prosperity, Conrad C. Crane Dr.
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
The ideas and issues presented in this collection of papers from the Twelfth Annual Strategy Conference conducted by the U.S. Army War College in April 2001 will educate and inform anyone interested in the past and future course of American defense reform. Though conference attendees had many differing opinions about the barriers to defense transformation and how to overcome them, a broad consensus formed that some change is essential to meet future security requirements. They observed at the time that it is ironic that the peace which creates the prosperity and wealth to fund transformation and permits a window of …
