Climate Change and Vietnam
ISBN: 9781511432894 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 24 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. As one of the most vulnerable countries globally to the consequences of climate change, Vietnam is highly likely to experience a variety of negative impacts over the next century. These include increasing (and increasingly variable) temperatures and rainfall, along with sea level rise and associated increased salinity of coastal water networks. The social and economic consequences will be unevenly distributed across the population, and in some cases may be exacerbated by well-intentioned modernization efforts. The cross-cutting nature of these phenomenon will require a heterogeneous network...

Force Projection, Strategic Agility and the Big Meltdown
ISBN: 9781502972453 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 28 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Due to global warming, the polar icepack which covers the Arctic Sea is melting. One of the very likely results of this environmental phenomenon is the year-round opening of the Arctic maritime sea routes. The strategic and operational implications for U.S. national and military security strategies would be significant. These routes would connect the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, and provide both alternate and shorter maritime routes for U.S. force projection and strategic agility. Inter-theater movement of forces over the top of the world would provide a supported combatant commander both...

George Washington's Primer for Multinational Operations: Overlooked Keys to the French-American Victory at Yorktown
ISBN: 9781500579999 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 26 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The current world order is such that unilateral military action on the part of the United States is highly unlikely. Consequently, when employed, American forces are required to function as part of an alliance or coalition. Such multinational operations present unique challenges, so it is vital the correct lessons be learned from each opportunity. Formal procedures have been established to capture "lessons learned" from recent combined operations. However, short shrift is often given to more historical experiences. Is it possible to learn something relevant to present-day or future operations...

Tactical Success is Not Enough: The French in Algeria 1954-1962
ISBN: 9781511432863 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 24 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This paper focuses on why France, a country with tremendous advantages in resources and military strength was defeated by a group of poorly equipped and largely untrained Algerian insurgents who mainly operated in groups of ten to twenty men and probably never had over fifteen thousand active fighters inside the borders of Algeria.1 The crux of the issue is that France failed to understand the nature of the war and why the Algerians were fighting. This failure led the French to misidentify the Algerian strategic center of gravity and by their actions, to make French centers of gravity, their...

An Argument for Consolidation: The ANZUS Carrier Task Force
ISBN: 9781500973193 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 44 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The ANZUS (Australia - New Zealand - United States) Treaty has evolved into a series of strong, individually bipartisan relationships. ANZUS Naval cooperation is a gold standard for other alliances to aspire. A recent shift in strategic attention to the Indo-Pacific region, the challenges posed by the Indo-Pacific, and financial restrictions on defense expenditures are shared concerns of each ANZUS nation and directly addressed within their overlapping national strategies. One possible solution is the US Navy Carrier Strike Group (CSG), but CSG's can be encumbered either by geographic factors...

The Ultimate Quarterback: How the Joint Force Commander Can Utilize the Air Component, Supported by the Ground and Special Forces Components, to
ISBN: 9781503305199 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 30 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The current U.S. military way of war is driven by a conventional, symmetric combat mindset. This immediately leads to designating the ground component as the main effort to achieve operational objectives against ground-centric adversaries. There may be, however, better options that would maximize combat potential to meet the operational objectives with the fewest losses in the least amount of time. One of those options would be for the Joint Force Commander (JFC) to designate airpower as the main effort, using the Joint Force Land Component Commander (JFLCC) and Joint Force Special Operations...

Pre-emptive Threat Mitigation: Neutralizing the Boko Haram Threat to U.S. Interests
ISBN: 9781505346763 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 26 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. West Africa presents unique and complex challenges to the security of the United States (US) and critical US interests abroad. Nigeria, the largest and most diplomatically, militarily and economically progressive nation in West Africa, faces severe threats of instability promulgated by the burgeoning terrorist group, Boko Haram. East Africa is the traditional focus of U.S. Africa Command (USAFRICOM); however, there is a compelling need to address West African issues before the region becomes the next primary challenge in the counterinsurgency (COIN) dilemma. Detailed USAFRICOM engagement can...

Boko Haram's Path to Victory
ISBN: 9781502590510 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 28 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Government of Nigeria's corruption and failure to address its people's grievances combined with the regional wave of Islamic extremism is fueling the rise of a strengthening insurgency called Boko Haram. Boko Haram's efforts have been steadily increasing in scale, though the majority of its actions are in Northeastern Nigeria. This book takes a "Red Team" approach and proposes three lines of effort for a campaign plan that would give Boko Haram the ability to achieve its objective of separating the North of Nigeria from the South. The first line of effort is to secure funding by...

Planning for War Termination with China
ISBN: 9781500780036 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 32 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book outlines the war termination considerations for the JFC in a notional scenario following an attack by China that disables an American aircraft carrier and bombards Guam and Okinawa while Chinese amphibious forces simultaneously execute an assault to capture islands in the South China Sea currently occupied by Vietnam, the Philippines and Malaysia. Following the Chinese strike an operational plan should initially use coercive diplomacy and avoid escalation in order to facilitate war termination through a negotiated peace. If this approach fails the JFC can then exploit factor time to...

The Gettysburg Campaign: Lee's Failure to Define Intent
ISBN: 9781511729482 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 26 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book examines the extent to which General Robert E. Lee adequately delineated and conveyed his intent for the campaign into Pennsylvania in the Summer of 1863. The argument is made and defended that General Lee did not have the overall intent of the campaign firmly defined in his own mind. Failure to convey commander's intent caused his subordinates to operate without unity of effort. This led to confusion throughout the campaign and ultimately disaster at the Battle of Gettysburg. The book discusses General Lee's correspondence and conversations which provide contradictory views of his...

Thucydides on Policy, Strategy, and War Termination
ISBN: 9781505912920 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 40 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For decades, Thucydides's account of the Peloponnesian War has been a staple of professional military education at American war colleges, the Naval War College especially. And with good reason-he self-consciously supplies his readers a microcosm of all war. With extraordinary drama and scrupulous attention to detail he addresses the fundamental and recurring problems of strategy at all times and places. These include the origins of war, the clashing political objectives of belligerents, the strategies they choose to achieve them, and the likely character of their conflicts. As the war...

Providing for the Common Defense Within our Borders
ISBN: 9781502924155 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 26 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book examines the U.S. law regarding use of the U.S. Armed Forces in domestic affairs. A brief scenario involving a terrorist attack using a weapon of mass destruction introduces an example of the dangers inherent in the use of military forces to regain or maintain public law and order. The discussion of U.S. law begins with the history of Posse Comitatus and proceeds through the passage of the Homeland Security Act of 2002. The Department of Homeland Security was created by this law and a subsequent action of establishing a unified commander with geographic responsibilities for the...

Surrogate Armies: Redefining the Ground Forces
ISBN: 9781500840884 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 32 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. To accelerate the Taliban's removal from power in Afghanistan, the U.S. has allied itself with a loose coalition of ethnic groups under the banners of the Northern Alliance, Eastern Alliance, and southern Pashtun tribes. This union provided a backhanded strike at the Taliban regime by re-igniting a ground war with only a modest deployment of U.S. ground forces. While the operation in Afghanistan falls under the mantle of "war," U.S. foreign policy has grappled with smaller engagements throughout the world. In many cases, these deployments reflected "important" or "humanitarian" national...

The Mexican Education System, the Keystone to Combatting Crime and Improving Economic Well Being
ISBN: 9781500403942 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 28 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Increased attention must be directed toward Mexico due to the direct and immediate effects issues like Mexican migration, cross border drug control, and transnational organized crime have on U.S. national security. Two primary issues underpin these shared security issues. These are a weak economy and an inadequate education system. Accordingly, this paper posits a relationship between education, economic health, and crime. To be specific, by strengthening the education system, Mexico's economy will improve. Together, these conditions will augment the government's ability to counter criminal...

General Robert E. Lee: Brightest Star in the South
ISBN: 9781500422189 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 26 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. History is often overlooked for its value in terms of lessons learned. By examining General Robert E. Lee's distinctive application of operational art and leadership as the commander of the Army of Northern Virginia, we can discern many lessons which are still pertinent to our commanders at the operational level today. From his selection of Lieutenant General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson as one of his corps commanders during his reorganization of the Army of Northern Virginia, his methods to build morale to his strategy and his balancing of Space, Time and Force there are many lessons to be...

It's Not the Size of the Dog in the Fight; It's all About Who's Feeding the Dog: Countering External Support for Insurgency
ISBN: 9781508845485 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 26 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Nearly all successful insurgencies throughout history have enjoyed some form of external support. Whether it takes the form of political, financial, or military assistance, insurgencies are often dependent upon this support for their survival. It logically follows then that removing that support will severely reduce an insurgency's chances of success. Given the nature of the GWOT, the military planner faces an increasing number of small wars. The first step to winning the hearts and minds is maintaining the security of the population. Disarmament is essential to security.
