ISBN: 9781502972477 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 34 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. While scientific debate continues over the degree to which carbon emissions derived from human activity drive climate change, discernable trends toward change in the world's climate are clear.

For-Profit Colleges and the GI Bill: A Worthwhile Investment?
ISBN: 9781500453534 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 26 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The proliferation of for-profit colleges and questions about their recruiting tactics and program quality has caused concern among educators and legislators for quite some time. This issue has also been a concern within military and veteran communities because of the number of servicemembers and veterans who choose to use their tuition assistance or GI Bill benefits at for-profit colleges. The enactment of the Post 9/11 GI Bill has made this a more urgent problem for two reasons. First, a larger number of servicemembers and veterans are using these benefits at for-profit colleges. Second, as...

Civilization's Drying Cradle: Water Politics in the Tigris-Euphrates River Basin
ISBN: 9781503029828 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 46 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The finite water supply of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers is increasingly imbalanced with the demands of Turkey, Syria, and Iraq. Turkey's GAP project, which will eventually include 22 dams and 19 hydroelectric plants in the upper Tigris-Euphrates basin, gives Turkey tremendous ability to control both rivers, and provides significant political and economic influence over Syria and Iraq. The countries have failed to reach a water-sharing agreement, and Turkish and Syrian stockpiling to fill reservoirs nearly led to military conflicts with Iraq in 1974 and 1990. Recent drought-induced low...

ISBN: 9781500457938 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 34 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The current Army Profession campaign makes the case for a re-evaluation and assessment of the Army as a profession and the attributes of the Army Professional. Leadership entails the repetitive exercise of discretionary judgments, all highly moral in nature, and represents the core function of the Army Professional's military art. Leader development is an investment required to maintain the Army as a profession. The profession is maintained by leaders who place a high priority on leader development and invest themselves and the resources of the profession to develop professionals and future...

Government Neutrality Regarding Religion
ISBN: 9781503144019 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 42 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. As national headlines highlight ethical breeches at the very top of our military structure, others have documented a concern about undue religious persuasion in the military. In the wake of alleged religious infractions, Air Force Instruction 1-1 was published with a paragraph entitled, "Government Neutrality Regarding Religion." This paragraph discourages leaders from openly practicing and referencing religion. There seems to be a disconnect-we are attempting to reduce religious discourse and effects as incidents of moral indiscipline rise. Our history documents religious influence in the...

The US military had worked with other countries combating illicit narcotics production and trafficking before that time. President Bush's February 1989 primetime speech, however, marked a shift that would lead to billions of taxpayer dollars being spent by the Department of Defense in its counternarcotics mission, named a national priority by then-President Bush and every US President since then. This book will question the results of the US military's counternarcotics effort and propose that in today's constrained fiscal environment,...

Combined Arms Maneuver, Wide Area Security, and Dynamic Capabilities
ISBN: 9781503208636 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 40 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The military commitments of the United States in Afghanistan and Iraq are ending. The present economic and political challenges have left the defense department with a significantly reduced budget. The reduction in spending impacts the three pillars of strategic execution: personnel, doctrine, and materiel. With reduced resources for critical training and acquisitions, the "billpayer" must be an increase in the level of acceptable risk that our country is willing to carry. To mitigate these risks, the Army has chosen to conduct Combined Arms Maneuver (CAM) and Wide Area Security (WAS) core...

Since 2009, the Department of the Army has granted religious accommodations for six soldiers to allow relief from the Army's grooming policy for males to be clean-shaven.

The Army must prepare its units to employ Full Spectrum Operations (FSO) competencies as part of the Joint Force 2020 in order to generate the desired strategic effects that "prevent" adversaries from escalating conflicts, "shape" the international environment, and, where challenged, "win" decisively and dominantly across the range of conflicts.

This paper traces the NTC's evolution, analyses the strategic security landscape from present to 2020, and makes...

The United States government is facing an enormous budget deficit of over $1 trillion for a third straight year, and the call to streamline and cut spending is resonating. The need to improve performance and increase efficiency has forged an even greater effort to improve the relationship between the two largest government agencies - Department of Defense (DoD) and Veterans Affairs (VA).

ISBN: 9781503003170 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 40 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In mid-2009 the Armed Forces of the Philippines dramatically changed their strategic approach to countering multiple long-standing insurgencies within the Philippine archipelago. The foundation of that approach was nationally articulated in the Internal Peace and Security Plan "Bayanihan," clearly outlining the government's overall framework for peace, as well as the two key tenets that reflected the change in policy. Although this change represented a paradigm shift and was focused, mostly for public consumption, on winning the peace, the tenets of protecting the population and whole of...

ISBN: 9781500453831 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 24 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. United States counterterrorism (CT) forces have been employed in Afghanistan since October 18, 2001. Over the last decade, the CT force profile and method of operating has evolved. Historically, the CT force was a secretive organization that did little to directly assist conventional battle space owners (BSO) operating in a shared counterinsurgency (COIN) environment; today, the CT force overtly supports the BSO from the Commander of the International Security Assistance Force (COMISAF) to the many dispersed battalion commanders operating throughout Afghanistan. The CT force's evolution was...

The Republic of Somalia gained independence on 1st July 1960 and nine years later General Mohamed Said Barre took power through a coup. In 1991 anarchy ensued after his expulsion and since then Somalia has been in a protracted conflict for over twenty four years with a lack of proper institutions for governance and the political capacity to function as a state. Fighting among leaders of rival factions and the lack of a stable functional government enables the Islamist militia, al Shabaab, whose objective is to establish a Somali caliphate in the entire nation, to unleash terror on Somalis and...

Empire Maintenance in the Information Age: Influence of Mediaverse on Strategy
ISBN: 9781503208599 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 34 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The proliferation of mobile Internet technology grants the average global citizen immediate access to information and the ability to posit opinions, i.e. influence, at near-real-time speed. The amalgam of 24/7 news networks, mass media, the Internet, and social media (the mediaverse), coupled with mobile technology, influences strategy in three ways. First, it is a national security challenge and opportunity. Second, it influences the character of war. Third, it is forcing an evolution of the strategic environment. The successful strategic leader must be not just aware but au courant on the...
