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
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.

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.
The Land, Space, And Cyberspace Nexus: Evolution Of The Oldest Military Operations In The Newest Military Domains, Jeffrey L. Caton
The Land, Space, And Cyberspace Nexus: Evolution Of The Oldest Military Operations In The Newest Military Domains, Jeffrey L. Caton
Books, Monographs & Collaborative Studies
Over the last century, the domains of air, space, and cyberspace have joined the traditional warfighting domains of land and sea. While the doctrine for land operations is relatively mature, the doctrine for space and cyberspace continue to evolve, often in an unstructured manner. This monograph examines the relationships among these domains and how they apply to U.S. Army and joint warfighting. It concentrates on the central question: How are U.S. military operations in the newest domains of space and cyberspace being integrated with operations in the traditional domain of land? This inquiry is divided into three major sections:

Good Catholic, Bad Catholic: Emil Antonucci, Vito Acconci, And The Incarnational Conscious, Ciaran Freeman
Helene Lafrance Library Undergraduate Research Award
The redefinition of what can be considered religious art in a contemporary society is at the forefront of conversation in the art world. In May 2018, the Met Costume Institute opened its Summer Blockbuster exhibition “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.” Although current, this conversation is not new. Like all art, religious art has always been and always will be in a state of constant evolution. So what is the Catholic imagination? How has it made itself manifest in visual art? In “Postmodern Heretics” art historian Eleanor Heartney argues that the Catholic Imagination is uniquely informed by what she …

Naval War College Review
In October 2006, on the occasion of the 231st anniversary of the U.S. Navy, the service gave itself a birthday present, in the form of the Navy Professional Read- ing Program (NPRP). This multifaceted program replaced what had commonly been known as the “Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Reading List” and the “Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy Reading List.” The CNO did not want a reading list, he wanted a reading program—the difference being a Navy commit- ment to making the books readily available in shipboard, squadron, and base li- braries, as opposed to simply identifying them for …

The Training Ground: Grant, Lee, Sherman, And Davis In Themexican War, 1846–1848, William Calhoun
Naval War College Review
The English novelist C. S. Forester once observed, concerning soldiers in war, that it was a “coincidence that when destiny had so much to do she should find tools of such high quality ready to hand.” This comment aptly describes the human story line woven throughout The Training Ground, Martin Dugard’s spirited and nearly blow-by-blow ac- count of the major battles of the Mexi- can War. Dugard, author of The Last Voyage of Columbus (2005), has written a robust narrative of this conflict de- scribing President James K. Polk’s am- bition to expand the territory of the United States.

Charlie Wilson’S War: The Extraordinary Story Of How The Wildest Man Incongress And A Rogue Cia Agent Changed The History Of Our Times,, Gene Milowicki
Naval War College Review
A longtime best seller in its tenth printing, this important book received a boost in December 2007 when the popular movie of the same name brought this story—CIA’s secret proxy war in Afghanistan against the Soviet Union— to the big screen. Crile’s painstaking account of the complex chain of events and of the powerful personalities that produced the most successful covert war in U.S. history is the result of extensive research, countless interviews, travel, and personal interaction with most of the key characters in this real- life drama.

Entering The Dragon’S Lair: Chinese Antiaccess Strategies Andtheir Implications For The United States,, Andrew Erickson
Naval War College Review
This study has already attracted wide- spread attention from the policy com- munity and media, for good reason. The U.S. military appears poised to face challenges to its ability to maintain access to a variety of regional littoral areas, such as in the Persian Gulf. It is time for American planners to view the rising antiaccess challenge as part of a global problem that may require significant restructuring of U.S. platforms, deployment, diplomacy, and even, in a worst case, strategy and tactics.
Destroyer Captain: Lessons Of A First Command, Tom Fedyszyn
Destroyer Captain: Lessons Of A First Command, Tom Fedyszyn
Naval War College Review
The politically correct aspiration for all surface warfare officers is to attain to command at sea. Realistically, these of- ficers cannot begin to comprehend all its ramifications, but they viscerally know it is the Holy Grail. Reading Ad- miral Jim Stavridis’s Destroyer Captain is about as close as these officers will come to enjoying the ride until they ac- tually receive their orders to command. It is our great fortune that then- commander Stavridis scrupulously kept a journal during his days aboard USS Barry (DDG 52) (1993–95) and has of- fered to share his experiences with us.

Striking First: Preemption And Prevention In International Conflict, Thomas Nichols
Naval War College Review
Even before the United States and its al- lies embarked on war in Iraq in 2003, the question of whether it is acceptable to strike enemies without clear provo- cation was an increasingly vexing one to policy makers, academics, and legal ex- perts. “Preemptive war” (attacking an enemy who is clearly about to strike you first) has always been an acceptable response to a dire and clear threat. But “preventive war” (striking a potential enemy while circumstances are favor- able to the attacker, or striking in early anticipation of a possible, or even only theoretical, threat) has traditionally been regarded …

Through A Mirror Darkly, Richard J. Norton
Naval War College Review
Trying to predict the nature of future wars is nothing new. Given the stakes, it is not surprising that efforts to pierce the barrier of warfare’s event horizon have long occupied security professionals. Accordingly, attempts to identify future enemies, theaters, tactics, and technologies have collectively represented an im- portant component in strategic planning. Intelligence estimates, personality profiles of potential enemy leaders, and war plans of every hue and dimension provide tangible evidence of these efforts.

Naval War College Review
The October 2000 terrorist attack on the guided-missile destroyer USS Cole (DDG 67) in the port of Aden, Yemen, is commonly viewed in the larger context of al-Qa‘ida’s September 11th campaign. Beyond the initial official investigations, the military force-protection context of the attack has largely been overlooked as analysts have traced the movements of al-Qa‘ida operatives who were traversing the globe at the time. But the proper context of the Cole bombing is a series of terrorist attacks against U.S. military forces abroad that started in 1983.
U.S. Navy Surface Battle Doctrine And Victory In The Pacific, Trent Hone
U.S. Navy Surface Battle Doctrine And Victory In The Pacific, Trent Hone
Naval War College Review
The basic strategic problems confronting the U.S. Navy during the interwar years of the 1920s and 1930s were how to move a large fleet across the Pacific, absorb or avoid Japanese attritional attacks, seize forward bases for further oper- ations, and retain sufficient fighting strength to defeat Japan’s Combined Fleet. Japanese and American policies in Asia were in conflict, and war was a possible result; the U.S. Navy planned to win by destroying Japan’s navy, imposing a blockade, and forcing Japan’s surrender.

Although Africa has long been a low strategic priority for the United States, Washington now has a sharp and pronounced strategic interest in protecting access to rich reserves of sub-Saharan oil and gas, mainly in the vicinity of the Gulf of Guinea, as part of its drive to reduce dependence on Middle East suppliers. By 2010, Africa’s share of U.S. oil imports could rise to 20 percent, and China has begun to engage the United States in a geopolitical contest for hydro- carbons and other economic and political benefits in sub-Saharan Africa.

Crisis And Command: A History Of Executive Power From George Washington To George W. Bush, James P. Terry
Naval War College Review
John Yoo’s most recent book is far more than a defense of the George W. Bush administration, which he served, as some of his many critics may find it. In fact, Crisis and Command is a carefully documented study of the exercise of presidential power from George Washington to President Obama. This is the last book in a trilogy by Yoo, the first two being The Powers of War and Peace (2005), which explains the founders’ original understanding of the foreign affairs power within the Constitution, and War by Other Means (2006), which discusses the law and logic behind the …
