Changes In U.S. Indo-Pacific Military Strategy And U.S. Bases In Okinawa, Clifton W. Sherrill
Changes In U.S. Indo-Pacific Military Strategy And U.S. Bases In Okinawa, Clifton W. Sherrill
Naval War College Review
The U.S. forces based on Okinawa in Japan’s Ryukyu Islands are critical to America’s strategic position in the western Pacific, its defense cooperation with the Japanese Self-Defense Forces, and U.S. security guarantees to Japan itself. Local opposition to hosting those forces and the subsequent uncertainty and consolidation of bases have bearings on that position and demand reevaluation.
A Special Operations Approach To Lawfare, Justin Malzac
A Special Operations Approach To Lawfare, Justin Malzac
Naval War College Review
Adapting special operations forces concepts such as “preparation of the environment” and “by, with, and through” approaches to partners to the field of lawfare will help standardize lawfare practices and doctrine across the U.S. government and ensure necessary international legal foundations and norms are in place before a looming conflict begins.
Fighting To Supply The Fight—Assessing Approaches For Overcoming Contested Logistics, Erik Sand
Fighting To Supply The Fight—Assessing Approaches For Overcoming Contested Logistics, Erik Sand
Naval War College Review
A potential conflict in the western Pacific would entail the most challenging logistics and resupply task the U.S. Navy has faced in decades, possibly ever. Three possible approaches, making innovative use of new data and artificial intelligence tools, can guide investments and doctrine to prepare the joint force for that potential fight.
China’S Naval Diplomacy In The Baltic Sea At The Beginning Of The Twenty-First Century—A Lost Window Of Opportunity, Tobias Kollakowski
China’S Naval Diplomacy In The Baltic Sea At The Beginning Of The Twenty-First Century—A Lost Window Of Opportunity, Tobias Kollakowski
Naval War College Review
The PLA Navy engaged Baltic Sea states heavily in the first and second decades of the twenty-first century, but these cooperative efforts ultimately failed as the contradiction with more-aggressive and concerning Chinese policies overall became untenable.
Nato And Emerging Technologies—The Alliance’S Shifting Approach To Military Innovation, Stephen Herzog, Dominika Kunertova
Nato And Emerging Technologies—The Alliance’S Shifting Approach To Military Innovation, Stephen Herzog, Dominika Kunertova
Naval War College Review
In the current era of great-power competition and the diffusion of emerging disruptive technologies on the battlefield, NATO’s approach to coordinating the development, adoption, and standardization of new technologies is changing from its practices during the Cold War, but the nature of these technologies poses additional challenges for the alliance.

Clausewitzian Friction And Twenty-First-Century War—The Paradox Of Technology, Nikolas Gardner
Clausewitzian Friction And Twenty-First-Century War—The Paradox Of Technology, Nikolas Gardner
Naval War College Review
New and emerging technologies—especially affecting sensors, networks, autonomy, and computing—are changing Clausewitz’s concept of friction in warfare. While these technologies appear to reduce some aspects of friction, they amplify others and may introduce new ones altogether.

Outsourcing Security At Sea—The Return Of Private Maritime-Security Companies And Their Role In Twenty-First-Century Maritime Security, Pieter W. G. Zhao
Naval War College Review
Tracing the historical, political, and economic dynamics behind the medieval emergence and eventual disappearance in the nineteenth century of mercenary naval forces illuminates the modern development of private maritime-security companies to address piracy.

The Future-War Literature Of The Reagan Era—Winning World War Iii In Fiction, Nicholas Evan Sarantakes
Naval War College Review
During the Reagan era, fiction about a hypothetical World War III was generally popular among the book-buying public, but a few authors actually influenced national-security matters by shining a light on particular topics, forcing discussions on particular issues, and giving ideas to those in power.
Disadvantages Ashore—Constraints On Achieving Integrated All-Domain Naval Power, Sam J. Tangredi
Disadvantages Ashore—Constraints On Achieving Integrated All-Domain Naval Power, Sam J. Tangredi
Naval War College Review
Strategists and analysts should be aware that the recently issued triservices strategy suffers from at least six political-bureaucratic-doctrinal disadvantages that very easily could turn into material disadvantages if the U.S. Navy were to face a competent enemy on the actual oceans.
Ukraine, Nuclear Weapons, And The Future Of International Law, Nicholas Rostow
Ukraine, Nuclear Weapons, And The Future Of International Law, Nicholas Rostow
Naval War College Review
Russian president Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine has confronted the international community with fateful questions: whether the minimum world public order constructed after World War II is to survive, whether nuclear powers are free to commit aggression, and whether any state that is not an ally of a nuclear power is fair game for attack.

“Confining The Enemy”—Halford Mackinder’S Theory Of Containment And The Conflict In Ukraine, Michael Hochberg, Leonard Hochberg
“Confining The Enemy”—Halford Mackinder’S Theory Of Containment And The Conflict In Ukraine, Michael Hochberg, Leonard Hochberg
Naval War College Review
Before George Kennan outlined his vision of containment, Halford Mackinder articulated a vision of maritime geostrategic logic that prioritized some geographic locations over others. Because Mackinder’s writings have been marshaled to assess the ongoing U.S. commitment to Ukraine, it is important to appreciate how his theory applies to the current crisis.
The European Union’S Quest To Become A Global Maritime-Security Provider, Christian Bueger, Timothy Edmunds
The European Union’S Quest To Become A Global Maritime-Security Provider, Christian Bueger, Timothy Edmunds
Naval War College Review
The European Union (EU) seeks to become a global maritime-security actor, yet strategic challenges influence its maritime-security strategy process. Is there a distinctive and coherent EU approach to global maritime security, and how should the EU address the growing range of maritime challenges, including the intensification of militarized competition in the Indo-Pacific?
Smart Balancers Kill Many Birds With Few Stones—Sino-Russian Security Cooperation In The Maritime Domain, Maximilian Ernst, Tongfi Kim
Smart Balancers Kill Many Birds With Few Stones—Sino-Russian Security Cooperation In The Maritime Domain, Maximilian Ernst, Tongfi Kim
Naval War College Review
Minimizing the costs and risks of balancing is crucial for a coalition facing stronger opponents—such as China and Russia facing the United States and its partners. The motives of Sino-Russian security cooperation should be understood within the context of a full spectrum of balancing strategies in international relations and the relatively lower risk of escalation in the maritime domain.
The Future Of Precision-Strike Warfare—Strategic Dynamics Of Mature Military Revolutions, John D. Maurer
The Future Of Precision-Strike Warfare—Strategic Dynamics Of Mature Military Revolutions, John D. Maurer
Naval War College Review
The precision conventional revolution, which yielded early U.S. military successes, is entering a more mature phase. Future great-power wars could tend toward protracted conflicts as superpowers seek to coerce each other without escalating to nuclear warfare. The proliferation and massing of precision conventional weapons may worsen such conventional military stalemates, with each side eviscerating the other’s power-projection capabilities.

Dilemmas Faced In Developing Small Navies, Andrzej Makowski
Dilemmas Faced In Developing Small Navies, Andrzej Makowski
Naval War College Review
Small navies face two important problems: the difficulty of acquiring the requisite financial resources and managing them properly, and the need to transform themselves so they can cooperate as parts of multinational teams. The latter aspect is the most important factor affecting their continued existence.
Selective Engagements—Chinese Naval Diplomacy And U.S.-China Competition, Joel Wuthnow, Margaret Baughman
Selective Engagements—Chinese Naval Diplomacy And U.S.-China Competition, Joel Wuthnow, Margaret Baughman
Naval War College Review
As China enters a period of heightened strategic competition with the United States, the PLAN will adjust its foreign-engagement strategy. China will forge stronger naval relations with non-U.S. major powers, including Russia; the United States will attempt to deny China new overseas naval facilities; and both countries will use exercises and other instruments to shape regional perceptions.

Putin’S Ukraine Invasion: Turbocharging Sino-Russian Collaboration In Energy, Maritime Security, And Beyond?, Andrew S. Erickson, Gabriel B. Collins
Putin’S Ukraine Invasion: Turbocharging Sino-Russian Collaboration In Energy, Maritime Security, And Beyond?, Andrew S. Erickson, Gabriel B. Collins
Naval War College Review
Putin’s war of choice in Ukraine will continue to send shock waves across the shores of maritime Asia for years, with unfolding impacts on ecosystems inhabited by oil barrels, gas pipelines, submarine technologies, jet engines, and basing access, within a context of a China-Russia relationship characterized over the centuries by cycles of fear, temporary bonds, and renewed division.
Nuclear Weapons In Russia’S War Against Ukraine, Stephen Blank
Nuclear Weapons In Russia’S War Against Ukraine, Stephen Blank
Naval War College Review
Western concern about Russian nuclear weapons’ potential deployment continues to suffuse policy responses to the Ukraine war, inhibiting relief efforts. Russia’s rhetoric and past exercises contribute to the pervasive Western belief that Russia might use nuclear weapons, including in a conflict that begins as a purely conventional war, to force its enemies to accept its terms.
