Stability operations secure national goals for military action by establishing the conditions for lasting peace after conflict or by mitigating the effects of humanitarian crisis. During the occupation of Japan following the end of World War II, American forces conducted stability operations that effectively did both. In the process, the American occupation forces transformed a defeated enemy nation into valued ally.

Illicit Drug Funding: The Surprising Systemic Similarities Between the FARC and the Taliban
ISBN: 9781480023840 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 58 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The preponderance of literature and scholarly debate on counterinsurgency (COIN) focuses on the strategic or operational approach: leader-focused; large group-focused; special operations; conventional operations; enemy centric; and the latest, population-centric. While the criticism on the latter approach accuses it of plagiarizing work on the subject written in the 1960s, the current debate may result in distraction from how to effectively do long-term damage to insurgent groups. There is a relatively small conglomerate of scholarly work that focuses on the illicit sources of funding for...

Commander's Emergency Response Program: A Flawed Metric
ISBN: 9781500530327 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 62 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Throughout its military history, the United States has demonstrated poor institutional memory resulting in a tendency to reinvent the wheel. The development of counterinsurgency doctrine in Vietnam, for instance, yielded valuable knowledge about combating an irregular enemy. Regardless, the subsequent foray into a counterinsurgent environment during Operation Iraqi Freedom proved problematic as the U.S. scrambled to adapt to yet another asymmetric threat. Operationally, the selection of performance metrics by the U.S. in complex and adaptive battlefields has mirrored this argument. Throughout...

Tactical level nuances between COIN by an external and an internal actor are barely distinguishable. The successful COIN practices for an external actor listed in FM 3-24 COIN manual of US Army include maintaining a constant, forward presence with the population, acquiring and disseminating accurate and timely intelligence, and avoiding overreaction to insurgent activity. These well recognized and established principles are also applicable to COIN conducted by internal actors. At the operational level, however, the context in which both the actors operate is fundamentally different. COIN...

ISBN: 9781511728829 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 44 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The concept of winning wars when outnumbered is critical to United States doctrine in the 1980s and- 1990s. As the product of domestic and allied force structuring, our most dangerous enemy has developed a clear cut superiority in mass. That disadvantage does not however, relieve planners of the responsibility for developing plans that propose ways of defeating our larger enemy. This study examines the elements of operational dynamics in light of their use as tools in the development of such a plan. The vehicle for this examination is the Second Manassas Campaign of the American Civil War....

The Army of the 21st century has experienced a change in the nature of war with the asymmetric global war on terrorism.

NATO Strategy and Out-of-Area Operations
ISBN: 9781502972217 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 54 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book examines the viability of recent NATO out-of-area operations, specifically in Kosovo and Afghanistan. It illustrates that the complex decision-making bureaucracy of NATO can be a detriment to the capabilities of the alliance and limits the strategic options available to the organization. By studying strategy development after the end of the Cold War and leading up to the commitment of NATO to the ISAF, it becomes clear that these structures and processes do not easily facilitate the formation of a coherent strategy that meets alliance objectives. During times of conflict, especially...

ISBN: 9781479199969 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 60 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. U.S. Army commanders seek to balance the requirements to conduct offensive, defensive and stability operations simultaneously. Within this framework, commanders have also had to balance the conduct of traditional military actions and non-military activities. In order to do so effectively commanders employ operational art. The forthcoming Army Doctrinal Publication, Unified Land Operations presents the "principle that operational art is the connection between strategic objectives and tactical actions, and provides a common construct for organizing military operations." This manual defines...

Red Teaming: Past and Present
ISBN: 9781500722050 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. "Red teaming" is a relatively new buzzword, but there is no common definition of its meaning. It can mean role-playing the adversary, conducting a vulnerability assessment, or using analytical techniques to improve intelligence estimates. While these definitions seem unrelated, they have in common the goal of improving decision making. This commonality forms the basis of the army's understanding of red teaming. Key aspects of the army red teaming definition are its emphasis on independent thinking, challenging organizational thinking, incorporating alternative perspectives, and incorporating...
