China’S Rising Sea Power: The Pla Navy’S Submarine Challenge,, Peter J. Woolley
China’S Rising Sea Power: The Pla Navy’S Submarine Challenge,, Peter J. Woolley
Naval War College Review
Peter Howarth, an Australian former diplomat and intelligence analyst, pres- ents an excellent mix of strategic the- ory, political dynamics, and tactical detail in considering the Chinese sub- marine fleet. His treatment demon- strates a keen understanding of both parts of the phrase “politico-military strategy,” and it is the type of thinking that Jeffrey Record of the Air War Col- lege recently opined is too often miss- ing in the American community.
The Science Of Military Strategy,, Andrew S. Erickson
The Science Of Military Strategy,, Andrew S. Erickson
Naval War College Review
This first English-language volume on strategy by China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA) was translated by a team of experts at the Academy of Military Sci- ences from the original Chinese-language version (Zhanlüexue, 2001). Edited by two major generals with significant ability to shape PLA strategy as advisers to China’s powerful Central Military Commission (CMC) and Politburo Standing Committee, this volume un- doubtedly reflects elements of critical policy trends in Beijing and hence merits close examination by foreign researchers and policy makers. Since this book has deliberately been made accessible to an overseas audience, it is im- portant to reflect on …

Naval Response To A Changed Security Environment, Alan Lee Boyer
Naval Response To A Changed Security Environment, Alan Lee Boyer
Naval War College Review
The capacity of the European Command to contribute to security and stabil- ity in its Mediterranean area of responsibility depends on its ability to de- velop and execute operational concepts and capabilities that are appropriate to the security environment in which it operates.1 In the maritime domain of the Mediterranean, the threats are largely transnational in character and can be effectively dealt with only in cooperation with regional partners.
U.S. Naval Diplomacy In The Black Sea, Deborah Sanders
U.S. Naval Diplomacy In The Black Sea, Deborah Sanders
Naval War College Review
Naval diplomacy—the use of naval power in peacetime to secure influence by contemporary navies is seen by many as playing a vital and unique role in promoting the international aims of governments. The U.S. Navy’s Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Michael Mullen, clearly recognizes the diplomatic utility of naval power: “Navies are not only critical, decisive, and enabling in times of war, but they may be even more important in maintaining the peace.”
Suppression Of Piracy And Maritime Terrorism, Martin N. Murphy
Suppression Of Piracy And Maritime Terrorism, Martin N. Murphy
Naval War College Review
On 12 October 2000, two men from an organization aligned with al-Qa‘ida loaded a rigid raider (a small boat with glass-reinforced-plastic hull) withexplosives and drove it into the side of the guided-missile destroyer USS Cole (DDG 67). Seventeen sailors lost their lives. This was a seminal event. It epitomized small war versus “big” war and the threat that small-war tactics could present to “big war” fleets. It was also an echo of the U.S. Navy’s past. As the initial alarm faded, the Navy’s response became largely inward looking and defensive, limited for the most part to the implementation of more …
Sailing To A New Port, James G. Stavridis
Sailing To A New Port, James G. Stavridis
Naval War College Review
When Admiral Shuford asked me to make a trip to Newport, it brought back wonderful memories of my time here as a junior officer, with Lieu- tenant Jake Shuford. I can’t say much more about that, mostly on advice of coun- sel, but suffice to say it was a wonderful time and involved jazz festivals, a lot of time on the tennis court, sailing, and an occasional cold beer. It’s wonderful and inspiring to see what a joint, interagency, and international event this is today. I do want to begin with a story which illustrates a bit about each of …

President’S Forum, Jake L. Shuford
Naval War College Review
When the Chief of Naval personnel recently visited Newport, he asked just what it was that made the Naval War College different from the other service colleges. Without hesitation, I replied: “Our faculty.” The worldwide reputation of this faculty is a source of great pride—not only to me but to the naval services and the Department of Defense. I miss no opportunity to emphasize how the talent that resides in the faculty and its tireless efforts make this College the preeminent institution that it is.

Decision At Sea: Five Naval Battles That Shaped American History, William Lloyd Stearman
Decision At Sea: Five Naval Battles That Shaped American History, William Lloyd Stearman
Naval War College Review
What history buff could possibly resist the subtitle “Five Naval Battles That Shaped American History”? Those so enticed will not be disappointed in Craig Symond’s exceptionally well writ- ten and fascinating accounts of these American naval battles: Oliver Hazard Perry’s far-reaching victory over the British in the 10 September 1813 battle for Lake Erie; the 8–9 March 1862 bat- tle of Hampton Roads (which ended in a draw) between America’s first iron- clad ships, USS Monitor and CSS Vir- ginia; the 1 May 1898 battle of Manila Bay; the 4 June 1942 battle of Midway; and the 18 April 1988 …
T. E. Lawrence In War And Peace, Ahmed Hashim
T. E. Lawrence In War And Peace, Ahmed Hashim
Naval War College Review
This is a timely book. It is a collection of rarely read wartime reports and post– World War I articles that wrestle with the consequences of war and were writ- ten by the British officer T. E. Lawrence, otherwise known as Lawrence of Ara- bia, one of the greatest theoreticians and practitioners of modern guerrilla warfare. Lawrence, of course, is best known for his book The Seven Pillars of Wisdom, which describes the British-inspired- and-supported
Pakistan: Between Mosque And Military, Amer Latif
Pakistan: Between Mosque And Military, Amer Latif
Naval War College Review
Five years into the U.S.-led global war on terror, Pakistan remains a corner- stone of U.S. strategy in defeating the Taliban and rooting out al-Qa‘ida. De- spite the importance of Pakistan, it is a country that poses challenges for the United States. A key challenge is the dominant role of the military, which seeks to balance its commitments as a valuable U.S. partner with its role as a guardian of the country’s Islamic identity through its close relationship with Pakistan’s religious establishment. How Pakistan manages these commit- ments has serious implications for U.S. policy.
Strategy And History: Essays On Theory And Practice, Timothy D. Hoyt
Strategy And History: Essays On Theory And Practice, Timothy D. Hoyt
Naval War College Review
This volume is largely successful not only in emphasizing the continuity and wisdom of Colin Gray’s long-standing defense of the study of strategy but in capturing his delight in skewering the latest intellectual fads in both American and British security theory. Strategy and History is a rich and occasionally pro- vocative read for any student of strat- egy, military issues, or international relations, and it reinforces the need to study strategy—the relationship be- tween military force and desired politi- cal objectives.

Merchant Shipping In A Chinese Blockade Of Taiwan, Michael C. Grubb
Merchant Shipping In A Chinese Blockade Of Taiwan, Michael C. Grubb
Naval War College Review
There is a substantial literature on the various methods and tactics the armed forces of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) could employ to enforce a naval blockade of Taiwan during a Taiwan Strait crisis.1 However, there has been very little assessment of how the qualities of today’s global maritime shipping industry might affect the effectiveness of a blockade.
China’S Future Nuclear Submarine Force, Andrew S. Erickson, Lyle J. Goldstein
China’S Future Nuclear Submarine Force, Andrew S. Erickson, Lyle J. Goldstein
Naval War College Review
On 26 October 2006, a Chinese Song-class attack submarine reportedly surfaced in close proximity to the USS Kitty Hawk carrier battle group in international waters near Okinawa.1 This was not the fi rst time that Chinese sub- marines have attracted extensive media attention. The advent of the Yuan-class SSK in mid-2004 seems to have had a major impact in transforming the assess- ments of Western naval analysts, and also of the broader community of analysts studying China’s military modernization.
The Limits Of Intelligence In Maritimecounterproliferation Operations, Craig H. Allen
The Limits Of Intelligence In Maritimecounterproliferation Operations, Craig H. Allen
Naval War College Review
It might come as a surprise to many of those immersed in the current debate over how best to guard against the further proliferation of weapons of mass destruc- tion (WMD) that the alarm over the “growing number of nations in positions to acquire mass annihilation weapons” and the potentially synergistic threat of state-sponsored terrorism was sounded at least two decades ago, in Reagan-era naval maritime strategy documents authored by Admiral James Watkins.
Strategic Culture And Its Relationship To Naval Strategy, Roger W. Barnett
Strategic Culture And Its Relationship To Naval Strategy, Roger W. Barnett
Naval War College Review
At the Naval War College’s Current Strategy Forum in June 2006, the Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Michael Mullen, called for the creation of a new maritime strategy. The key for the Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard in for- mulating a new strategy will be in describing how, within the context of a national military strategy, maritime forces can make a strategic difference.
President’S Forum, Jake L. Shuford
President’S Forum, Jake L. Shuford
Naval War College Review
There have been a number of attempts over the past decade to create a coherent and comprehensive education policy for the Navy and a strat- egy to implement it. Efforts over the past year have been very encouraging, and it appears that we may well be moving toward realizing this objective. In his Guid- ance for 2007, the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) has advanced the primary objective of completing and executing a Navy Education Strategy that emphasizes “critical thinking, leadership, cultural awareness, jointness, innovation, and adaptability.”One certain thing that this strategy must do is to ensure an inventory of …

Naval War College Review
As the Navy, the Naval War College in particular, continues to work toward the articulation of a new maritime strategy, it is well to be reminded that such a strategy will encompass more than the Navy itself. Admiral Michael Mullen, Chief of Naval Operations, has introduced the concept of the “thousand-ship navy” in order to underline the vital role of international cooperation in the maritime domain to meet the threats of today and tomorrow.

In My View, Timothy R. Dring
Naval War College Review
I was very interested to read Dr. Scott Truver’s recent article “Mines and Under- water IEDs in U.S. Ports and Waterways” in the Winter 2008 edition of the Re- view. I was all the more interested because of my own involvement with this issue in the 1980s and early 1990s as part of the Navy’s previous Maritime Defense Zone program along the U.S. East Coast.

Assignment Pentagon: How To Excel In A Bureaucracy, 4th Ed., Albert J. Shimkus
Naval War College Review
For this, the fourth edition of his well received book, Major General Perry M. Smith, U.S. Air Force (Ret.), has added a coauthor, Colonel Daniel M. Gerstein, U.S. Army (Ret.). Colonel Gerstein served for twenty-six years in combat, peace, and humanitarian operations. He also served in the Pentagon for al- most ten years in senior advisory and leadership roles. This edition has been expanded into sixteen chapters, each adding consider- able value to the publication. One of the more interesting and vital chapters for properly grasping the workings of “the building” is devoted to “under- standing the process.”
Brown Waters Of Africa: Portuguese Riverine Warfare, 1961–1974, Martin N. Murphy
Brown Waters Of Africa: Portuguese Riverine Warfare, 1961–1974, Martin N. Murphy
Naval War College Review
Counterinsurgency warfare is what used to be called “colonial warfare.” Although the association might make some people uncomfortable—Americans perhaps more than most, given their aversion to colonialism—much of the strategic intent and many of the tactics, techniques, and procedures of modern counterinsurgency derive directly from the colonial wars and police actions of the past.
Defending The Homeland: Historical Perspectives On Radicalism, Terrorism,And State Responses, Randy L. Unger
Defending The Homeland: Historical Perspectives On Radicalism, Terrorism,And State Responses, Randy L. Unger
Naval War College Review
Defending the Homeland is not about homeland defense as defined by the De- fense Department—the military defense of U.S. territory from external attack. Rather, what the editors provide is a wide-ranging examination of, first, how the United States has responded to a va- riety of internal and external threats over its history and, second, how soci- etal reactions to terrorism may unin- tentionally encourage the terrorist mind-set. The volume comprises nine academic essays from among those sub- mitted to the 2005 Senator Rush D. Holt History Conference at West Vir- ginia University.

Research & Debate, Wang Wei
Research & Debate, Wang Wei
Naval War College Review
Weaponry and concepts (that is to say, combat theory, or more specifically, doctrine regarding the practical employment of some specific weapon) have en- dured as themes of warfare throughout the history of mankind. From the perspective of their development, there has always been an interactive relation- ship between weaponry and combat theory. Lack of coordination in the development of these two elements has led to a spiral in which one continually supersedes the other.
Admiral Richard G. Colbert, John B. Hattendorf
Admiral Richard G. Colbert, John B. Hattendorf
Naval War College Review
Most people who serve in navies or devote their days to writing and thinking about naval power take almost for granted the concept that navies are an expression of national power and therefore, in modern terminology, reinforce nationalism. We have become almost hypnotized by the idea that there is a continuum from national policy to naval strategy and tactics.
Developing The Navy’S Operational Leaders, Christopher D. Hayes
Developing The Navy’S Operational Leaders, Christopher D. Hayes
Naval War College Review
Admiral Mullen’s words accurately reflect the Navy’s traditional pronounce- ment on leadership. Yet for most of the past century the Navy has struggled to define formally and institutionalize its development process for naval leaders. Just as the Navy accepts that “everything starts and ends with leadership,” it comfortably assumes that leadership “just happens,” as a natural derivative of operational assignments.
