Alternatives Futures In War And Conflict, Michael Renner
Alternatives Futures In War And Conflict, Michael Renner
Naval War College Review
The violence of many contemporary armed struggles is not an expression of clear political or military objectives but instead a manifestation of the chaos ensuing from state failure. Traditional military conceptions of war do not apply in that situation.

Naval War College Review
Confronted with its own supreme product, nuclear weapons, large-scale interstate war as a phenomenon is slowly but surely being squeezed below the historical horizon. What will arise in its place?

“A Nation Blessed”, George Bush
Naval War College Review
Was the Gulf War a “preview of coming attractions”? The war made it obvious that the end of the Cold War had not meant the end of threats to American interests or to international peace and security. If we take our security for granted, the former president warned the Naval War College’s 2001 graduates, we do so at our own peril.

After The Storm—The Growing Convergence Of The Air Force And Navy, John L. Barry, James Blaker
Naval War College Review
Are the services trying to improve their joint operational abilities fast enough? The answer, for the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy, has its roots in their behavior in the late 1970s and 1980s. In the future, joint operational capabilities will accelerate dramatically, because of the growing convergence between service visions and doctrines.
Has It Worked?—The Goldwater-Nichols Reorganization Act, James R. Locher Iii
Has It Worked?—The Goldwater-Nichols Reorganization Act, James R. Locher Iii
Naval War College Review
The overall report card is mixed. In the operational dimension of the Defense Department, which its original sponsors considered most pressing, the Goldwater-Nichols Act has been very successful. The act’s “business” reforms, however, have not worked. These concerns, which may have been secondary fifteen years ago, are urgent now.
Defending Taiwan, And Why It Matters, Chris Rahman
Defending Taiwan, And Why It Matters, Chris Rahman
Naval War College Review
The Chinese threat to Taiwan is the primary near-term challenge to the East Asian order. As the Taiwanese are most unlikely to surrender willingly, and as the United States has a vital national interest at stake, a strong case can be made on strategic grounds for defending Taiwan’s de facto independent status, should the need arise. An Australian scholar makes that case.
How China Might Invade Taiwan, Piers M. Wood, Charles D. Ferguson
How China Might Invade Taiwan, Piers M. Wood, Charles D. Ferguson
Naval War College Review
A determined China could launch an invasion sooner than the five, ten, or twenty years that some have projected, though it would be unlikely to succeed if it made the attempt today. A phased, stepping-stone invasion would force Taiwan to decide whether to absorb casualties fighting in preliminary invasions or to conserve resources for a final stand on the main island.
Strategic Geography And The Greater Middle East, Robert Harkavy
Strategic Geography And The Greater Middle East, Robert Harkavy
Naval War College Review
Daily events in the Middle East, North Africa, the African Horn, South Asia, and ex-Soviet Central Asia offer little encouragement that this region is at the “end of history”—the end of major warfare and security rivalries. Two Gulf wars have been fought in recent memory, as well as Arab-Israeli and Indian-Pakistani wars. In that obvious sense, geopolitics is alive and well in the Greater Middle East.
The World According To Usama Bin Laden, Ahmed S. Hashim
The World According To Usama Bin Laden, Ahmed S. Hashim
Naval War College Review
Usama Bin Laden is a dangerous opponent, and so are those who might succeed him should he be killed. Bin Laden’s ideas and goals, however, remain little explored or understood. To grasp them, it is necessary to examine the regional and historical context, his experiences, and the sources of fundamentalist thought upon which he draws.

Thinking About Innovation, Williamson Murray
Naval War College Review
The Pentagon lives in a sea of slogans, elaborate electronic graphics, and a self-satisfied belief that new platforms will solve tactical and operational problems. But slick presentations do not equate to serious military thought, and technology has rarely been more than an enabler of revolutions.
