The Proliferation Security Initiative—Cornerstone Of A New International Norm, Joel A. Doolin Apr 2018

The Proliferation Security Initiative—Cornerstone Of A New International Norm, Joel A. Doolin

Naval War College Review

The Proliferation Security Initiative (PSI), launched in 2003, is an international effort to limit the spread of weapons of mass destruction to rogue states and terrorists. With sixteen core member states and some sixty cooperating nations, it enjoys today many advantages of law and organization in coastal waters, but it lacks useful authority to interdict WMD on the high seas. PSI itself, however, represents an opportunity to alter international law and fill that critical gap.

Moderator’S Report—Legal Experts’ Workshop On The Future Global Legal Order, Craig H. Allen Apr 2018

Moderator’S Report—Legal Experts’ Workshop On The Future Global Legal Order, Craig H. Allen

Naval War College Review

A group of international legal experts gathered at the Naval War College in late 2006 to consider the probable shape of the global legal order in 2020—the environment in which the maritime strategy the U.S. Navy is now formulating would operate.


Globalization Of Navy Shipbuilding—A Key To Affordability For A New Maritime Strategy, Robert J. White Apr 2018

Globalization Of Navy Shipbuilding—A Key To Affordability For A New Maritime Strategy, Robert J. White

Naval War College Review

Can the U.S. Navy realistically build the ships it expects to need with the money it expects to receive? Not if the new ships will cost what they do now—but there is a better way.


Building Partners’ Capacity—The Thousand-Ship Navy, Ronald E. Ratcliff Apr 2018

Building Partners’ Capacity—The Thousand-Ship Navy, Ronald E. Ratcliff

Naval War College Review

Nearly two years after a bold proposal of a “thousand-ship navy,” little progress seems to have been made in constituting it. Part of the reason is that the U.S. Navy does not seem to appreciate how the idea looks to many nations whose navies might participate.


New Directions In Maritime Strategy?—Implications For The U.S. Navy, Geoffrey Till Apr 2018

New Directions In Maritime Strategy?—Implications For The U.S. Navy, Geoffrey Till

Naval War College Review

The defense of the system requires a range of naval tasks that covers much of the spectrum of conflict, a range that seems to be getting ever wider. The resultant strategies are a blend of cooperative and competitive approaches in policy, since the two are no more mutually exclusive in maritime-strategy making than they are in international political life.


Two Hundred Years Of Preemption, George H. Quester Apr 2018

Two Hundred Years Of Preemption, George H. Quester

Naval War College Review

Preemption and preventive war have a mixed history in terms of moral acceptance. The strongest condemnation dates from 1918, not 1945. Nonetheless, the world’s experiences before 1914 and since 1938 suggest that it may have to live with, and make the best of, such options.

Targeted Killing And The Law Of Armed Conflict, Gary Solis Apr 2018

Targeted Killing And The Law Of Armed Conflict, Gary Solis

Naval War College Review

Targeted killing is not the battlefield killing of combatants by opposing combatants or the assassination of an individual for political purposes. But in a new age of nonstate actors engaged in transnational terrorist violence, it has become a new reality, and the law of armed conflict should recognize it.


On Major Naval Operations, Milan Vego Apr 2018

On Major Naval Operations, Milan Vego

Naval War College Review

Western naval theoreticians and planners in recent years have neglected the study of major naval operations, of the sort carried out by the U.S. Navy in World War II. But it would be dangerous to assume that major naval operations are of simply historical interest; they should be thought about more systematically.


A Bimodal Force For The National Maritime Strategy, Wayne P. Hughes Jr. Apr 2018

A Bimodal Force For The National Maritime Strategy, Wayne P. Hughes Jr.

Naval War College Review

A “bimodal” national military strategy would have two, and only two, objectives: first, the capabilities to deal with a peer competitor, and second, the means to conduct several small operations concurrently. What capabilities would the naval forces need? Would they cost no more than our present capabilities? Would this bimodal force be capable of dealing with other situations?


Notes Toward A New Maritime Strategy, George W. Baer Apr 2018

Notes Toward A New Maritime Strategy, George W. Baer

Naval War College Review

A strategy, argues a distinguished Naval War College scholar, will show the maritime services what they are to protect, what they are to pursue, and for what they are to prepare. A new maritime strategy will express the way the nation sees itself in respect to the world ocean and declare what the fleet can do about it.

Eastern Exit—Rescue “. . . From The Sea”, Gary J. Ohls Apr 2018

Eastern Exit—Rescue “. . . From The Sea”, Gary J. Ohls

Naval War College Review

Operation EASTERN EXIT, the January 1991 evacuation of the U.S. embassy in Mogadishu, Somalia, was an early and improvised, but highly successful, application of the expeditionary concepts devised to meet the emerging (dis)order of the post–Cold War world.
