Armed Peacekeepers in Bosnia
ISBN: 9781508701033 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The incredibly complex drama of war and edgy peace that unfolded in Bosnia, or Bosnia-Herzegovina, during the 1990s gave birth to a fascinating and instructive series of military operations that constitute the subject of this study. The nature of circumstances and missions in Bosnia poses a variety of challenges to the historian. First, given their recent occurrence, it is remarkably difficult to frame these events in historical perspective. This is in part because many outcomes and consequences reside somewhere in the future. The SFOR mission itself only came to a close late in 2004 as this...

Stability Economics: The Economic Foundations of Security in Post-conflict Environments
ISBN: 9781490535395 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In the years after invading Iraq and Afghanistan, the US military realized that it had a problem: How does a military force set the economic conditions for security success? This problem was certainly not novel-the military had confronted it before in such diverse locations as Grenada, Haiti, Bosnia, and Kosovo. The scale and complexity of the problem, however, were unlike anything military planners had confronted beforehand. This was especially the case in Iraq, where some commentators expected oil production to drive reconstruction.1 When the fragile state of Iraq's infrastructure and a...

Armed Peacekeepers in Bosnia
ISBN: 9781505364699 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Over 150 years ago, Carl von Clausewitz offered sage advice: political and military leaders must understand the con ict into which they send their troops. This wisdom certainly applies to armies embarking on peace support operations. But as pointed out by Major D. G. Wilson, who served in Bosnia with the British army, knowing Balkan history is also important in being an effective peacekeeper. In December 1995, the US Army faced an intellectual challenge as it deployed ground troops with the mission of separating the warring factions in Bosnia and of helping create a secure environment for the...

ISBN: 9781503025929 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In view of the adoption of the term "The Long War" by the United States Joint Chiefs of Staff to describe US operations against terrorism and state sponsored terrorism, CSI decided to change the title of our long running series of studies on irregular warfare - from the Global War on Terrorism Occasional Papers to the Long War Occasional Papers. This CSI Occasional Paper is the first in the renamed series. The purpose of the series, however, remains unchanged. That is, to provide short historical monographs on topics of doctrinal and operational relevance to the US Army and military...

Prepared by the Afghan Study Team of the Combat Studies Institure, U.S. Army, From the foreword by Genral (ret.) David Petraeus: "In 2010, as the scale and tempo of Coalition operations in Afghanistan increased, so did the need for historical accounts of small-unit actions.

By capturing key insights from both lethal and non-lethal operations, I hoped these accounts would be of immediate utility...

Lansdale, Magsaysay, America, and the Philippines A Case Study of Limited Intervention Counterinsurgency
ISBN: 9781500705268 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Historians tend to agree that Ramon Magsaysay's leadership and his relationship with Edward Lansdale are two of the most important features of the Philippine governments campaign against the Huks from 1946-1954. Yet the nuances of his leadership and the nature of their relationship deserve greater investigation. This thesis seeks to further illuminate Magsaysay and Lansdale's relationship by focusing on the role of empathy and sociocultural understanding, in defeating the Huks and restoring the Philippine government's legitimacy. US policy in the Philippines at the time, bolstered regimes...

United States Grand Strategy Through the Lens of Lebanon in 1983 and Iraq in 2003 (Art of War Papers Series)
ISBN: 9781782664109 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 102 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The United States failed in both Lebanon in 1982-1984 and Iraq in 2003, to achieve its political objectives. While there are many reasons for this, perhaps the greatest is that the government failed to coordinate and direct all of its resources in a unified manner to achieve its goals. This book outlines four key indicators, present in both Lebanon and Iraq, that suggest the United States did not have a grand strategy. Further, this book reveals that Lebanon and Iraq are not anomalies; there are both historical and structural reasons why the United States struggles to implement grand...

A Historical Review and Analysis of Army Physical Readiness Training and Assessment
ISBN: 9781782663621 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. From the foreword: ""The Drillmaster of Valley Forge"-Baron Von Steuben-correctly noted in his "Blue Book" how physical conditioning and health (which he found woefully missing when he joined Washington's camp) would always be directly linked to individual and unit discipline, courage in the fight, and victory on the battlefield. That remains true today. Even an amateur historian, choosing any study on the performance of units in combat, quickly discovers how the levels of conditioning and physical performance of Soldiers is directly proportional to success or failure in the field. In this...
