The End Of Innocence: Rethinking Noncombatancy In The Post-Kosovo Era, Charles J. Dunlap Jr.

Faculty Scholarship

The protection of civilians and their property in war is an accepted norm of international law - even where the putatively "noncombatant" populace openly supports the immoral use of force by its military. NATO's Kosovo operation suggests, however, that the imposition of hardship on the sentient, adult "noncombatant" population through property loss can erode a society's appetite for malevolence. While civilians should not be targeted, a new paradigm for noncombatancy that allows the destruction of certain property currently protected by international law but not absolutely indispensable to civilian survival may well help shorten conflict and effect necessary societal change.

The Police-Ization Of The Military, Charles J. Dunlap Jr.

Faculty Scholarship

This essay will briefly review the background of the use of the armed forces in a police capacity, discuss the growth of that role in the I980s and 1990s, and forecast an even greater expansion into that role in the near future due to the emerging threat of "catastrophic terrorism." It will contend that this increased reliance on military resources for policing is not in the interest of either the armed forces or the public. Finally, it will make some observations with a view towards minimizing the dangers of police-ization of the military while ensuring the Nation's public safety.

A Virtuous Warrior In A Savage World, Charles J. Dunlap Jr.

Faculty Scholarship

Divining the nature of future war is always problematic. President Eisenhower warned that "Every war is going to astonish you in the way it has occurred, and in the way it is carried out." The United States must, of course, be prepared to meet a wide range of contingencies. Paramount among them would be a threat posed by a "peer competitor," that is, a state capable of battling the United States with comparable forces employing largely orthodox tactics. Although it is almost certain that one will arise in the future, no nation exists today that can challenge America symmetrically as …

Welcome To The Junta: The Erosion Of Civilian Control Of The U.S. Military, Charles J. Dunlap Jr.

Faculty Scholarship

Colonel Dunlap argues that civilian control of the United States military is eroding as a result of seemingly disparate phenomena. Colonel Dunlap first examines the American tradition of antimilitarism, which he believes no longer effectively restrains the modern armed forces. He then analyzes the effects of the military's elevated public support, the evolving nature of the leadership elite, and the increasing vulnerability of constitutional safeguards to military influence. In an effort to assess the current predicament, Colonel Dunlap introduces the new paradigm of postmodern militarism that challenges traditional notions of civilian control. Noting the potential long-term implications of excessive military …

The Military Justice System And Command Accountability, Charles J. Dunlap Jr.

Faculty Scholarship

The Long Commission, which investigated the terrorist bombing of the Beirut Marine barracks, recommended punitive action against officers in the chain of command. The president, however, ruled out courts-martial. This article examines the concept of command accountability and the role of the military justice system.

Professional dereliction and incompetence have rarely been punished since World War II. . . . Failure to do so has bred an atmosphere of professional unaccountability that encourages, because it does not penalize, repetition of failure on the battlefield.
