“Rockets’ Red Glare”—Why Does China Oppose Thaad In South Korea, And What Does It Mean For U.S. Policy?, Robert C. Watts Iv
“Rockets’ Red Glare”—Why Does China Oppose Thaad In South Korea, And What Does It Mean For U.S. Policy?, Robert C. Watts Iv
Naval War College Review
China’s purported fears about the introduction of defensive missiles into South Korea are likely insincere or misplaced, leaving concerns about the beneficial effects on U.S. alliances as the probable explanation for its opposition.

A Maritime Oil Blockade Against China—Tactically Tempting But Strategically Flawed, Gabriel Collins
Naval War College Review
The political, economic, and financial aspects of sustaining an oil blockade against China mean that even a militarily successful blockader could find its political, economic, and diplomatic position untenable well before a blockade could exert its full effects.

Four Lessons That The U.S. Navy Must Learn From The Dreadnought Revolution, Angus K. Ross
Four Lessons That The U.S. Navy Must Learn From The Dreadnought Revolution, Angus K. Ross
Naval War College Review
Early in the twentieth century the Royal Navy, the world’s dominant naval force, stood at the cusp of fundamental technological and strategic shifts—and failed, as an institution, to respond effectively to them. Why? What can the U.S. Navy, in a similar position today, learn from the experience?
The Most Daring Act Of The Age—Principles For Naval Irregular Warfare, Benjamin Armstrong
The Most Daring Act Of The Age—Principles For Naval Irregular Warfare, Benjamin Armstrong
Naval War College Review
The 1804 burning of the captured frigate Philadelphia in Tripoli harbor was an early example of U.S. Navy irregular warfare, and it suggests principles that will be valuable in the irregular warfare that the Navy is likely face in the years to come.

Piracy in the Horn of Africa presents the international community with a complex and multidimensional challenge but also with a golden opportunity to come together and work collaboratively to solve it.

A Private Security Solution To Somali Piracy?—The U.S. Call For Private Security Engagement And The Implications For Canada, Christopher Spearin
Naval War College Review
Recently expressed U.S. interest in encouraging commercial shippers to rely on private security companies against pirates is a matter of concern, both in practical terms and in fundamental terms of “who does what” at sea.
The Canadian Navy And Canada’S National Interests In This Maritime Century, Dean Mcfadden
The Canadian Navy And Canada’S National Interests In This Maritime Century, Dean Mcfadden
Naval War College Review
Adversaries have learned to integrate the warfare traditions of Clausewitz and Mao Zedong and to organize all means of violence—criminal, irregular, and conventional—to achieve their political ends. There are important implications in this for Canada’s maritime forces, including the fundamental capacity to fight and prevail in combat at sea against a potentially far broader and more comprehensive range of threats than ever before.
Talking About Sea Control, Robert C. Rubel
Talking About Sea Control, Robert C. Rubel
Naval War College Review
For two decades the U.S. Navy has enjoyed total command of the sea, so much so that it has stopped talking about sea control, even to the extent of forgetting how to. The time has come to rediscover the discipline, yet again.

Programs Vs. Resources—Some Options For The Navy, Ronald O’Rourke
Naval War College Review
If the U.S. Navy’s budget does not increase in real terms, the prospect over the longer run is for a fleet with advanced capabilities for performing missions but too few ships and aircraft to perform them simultaneously in all desired areas. Policy makers addressing this situation could face difficult choices among options that present feasibility challenges or have their own potential downsides.

Reflections On Reading, John E. Jackson
Reflections On Reading, John E. Jackson
Naval War College Review
I cannot live without books.” So wrote Thomas Jefferson to John Adams in 1815. Jefferson, one of the most learned founders of the Republic, amassed the largest personal collection of books in the United States. After the British burned the Li- brary of Congress during the War of 1812, he sold 6,500 books from his collec- tion to Congress to reestablish its library. Nearly two centuries later, the Navy’s leadership bought ten times that number of books, over sixty-five thousand, when it established the Navy Professional Reading Program (NPRP) in 2006. In both cases, the intent was to make great …
Grasping “The Influence Of Law On Sea Power”, James Kraska
Grasping “The Influence Of Law On Sea Power”, James Kraska
Naval War College Review
Over the past two decades international maritime law has evolved from a set of rules designed to avoid naval warfare, by keeping maritime powers apart, toward a new global framework designed to facilitate maritime security cooperation, by bringing naval forces together to collaborate toward achieving common goals. The effects of this change are far-reaching—for the first time, law is a force multiplier for pursuing shared responsibilities in the maritime do-main.
Close Encounters At Sea, Raul Pedrozo
Close Encounters At Sea, Raul Pedrozo
Naval War College Review
On 23 March 2001, the hydrographic survey ship USNS Bowditch (T-AGS 62) was conducting routine military survey operations in China’s claimed exclusive economic zone (EEZ) in the Yellow Sea when it was “aggressively confronted” by a Chinese Jianheu III–class frigate and ordered to leave the EEZ. Being an unarmed naval auxiliary vessel, Bowditch changed course and left the area as instructed. A few days later, the U.S. embassy filed a strongly worded diplomatic protest with the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Bowditch returned to the area of the encounter, this time with an armed U.S. escort, to continue its …
China In Africa, Todd A. Hofstedt
China In Africa, Todd A. Hofstedt
Naval War College Review
The recent expansion of Chinese activity in Africa has raised several concerns, ranging from control over energy resources to exploitive economic practices and support of rogue or corrupt regimes, perpetuating instability and undermining international pressure for reform. These issues, however, represent only a fraction of China’s broadly based engagement in Africa. In fact, the most egregious examples of China’s behavior commonly cited are unsustainable and even counterproductive to its long-term interests in Africa.

Thinking About The Unthinkable, Toshi Yoshihara, James R. Holmes
Naval War College Review
Will Japan go nuclear? Doubtful—but what if it does? It is possible to envi- sion circumstances that would impel Tokyo and the Japanese populace to cast aside their long-standing dread of nuclear weapons and to construct an arsenal of their own for the sake of national survival. Menacing strategic surroundings or a collapse of the U.S.-Japan Security Treaty are two such circumstances. If some nightmare scenario did come to pass, the common wisdom has it, Japan could build a working bomb in short order. In 1991, Richard Halloran averred that “Japan is N minus six months,” although he saw no …

Naval War College Review
The frightening increase in piracy off the coast of Somalia since the turn of the present century demonstrates just how fast this kind of threat can emerge and how severe the difficulties involved in understanding and subduing it can be. Since 1992, in fact, there have been 3,583 piratical attacks worldwide. According to the United Kingdom’s House of Commons Transport Committee: “This represents an increase from 1993 to 2005 of 168%. In the same period, 340 crew members and passengers died at the hands of pirates, and 464 received injuries.

President’S Forum, James P. Wisecup
Naval War College Review
Admiral Stansfield Turner put a fine point on something very important here at the Naval War College, and that is excellence in scholarship but not scholarship for its own sake. Scholarship here must serve a purpose support the Navy and the nation, which it does. This is one of the things that make this institution unique, as we prepare to enter our 125th year of service. After four months in Newport, one thing in particular has become clear to me: many of our people in uniform do not understand what goes on at the Naval War College and have not …

Naval War College Review
No one imagines that piracy today constitutes the kind of menace it once did in certain parts of the globe—not least in our own hemisphere, as we can learn from a recent popular film trilogy. But there can be little question that the dra- matic upsurge in pirate attacks on international commercial shipping in the wa- ters off Somalia in recent months has gotten the world’s attention, particularly because the problem has been so resistant to easy solution. Like the mythical Captain Jack Sparrow, Somali pirates have proven surprisingly competent.
