Описание: There is more to defense than military might and more to the military than a fighting force. At a moment of global upheaval, domestic turmoil, and political uncertainty, this timely volume seeks to define and reframe the terms of defense engagement - the use of military capabilities to exert soft power (influence) as opposed to hard power (military force). Defense Engagement since 1900 is a work of applied military history that brings lessons of the past to bear on current issues. In a number of case studies spanning the twentieth century and the globe, the authors explore various dimensions of defense engagement. Their work, which attempts to recast the role of a state's military from wielder of force to employer of power, is squarely aimed at tackling the causes of designated security threats and not merely managing their consequences.The chapters, by scholars and practitioners representing diverse points of view, focus primarily on the British experience - perhaps the most extensive example of the use of military power in a nonmartial fashion in pursuit of policy goals. However, the chapters also consider events in the United States, Canada, Japan, the Middle East, and Africa. Intelligence, diplomacy, deterrence, alliances, coalitions, and networks: all are within the authors' scope as they address the need to use a wide range of attributes and capabilities associated with military power in various contemporary conflicts and national security strategies. The understanding their work provides will prove critically important to strategic thinkers of our day, as democratic states increasingly contend with hybrid, subthreshold, and Gray Zone warfare.

Описание: The five decades between the Spanish-American War and the end of World War II were a time of revolutionary technological change. Navies struggled to assimilate newship types-dreadnought battleships, destroyers, aircraft carriers, and submarines and integrate them with new technologies, like analog fire control computers, radio, andradar. The U.S. Navy stood out in its ability to harness these new technologies and develop them to expand the fleet's fighting power. Between 1898 and 1945, the Navyevolved from a second-tier force to the world's strongest naval power. This transition was far more than an increase in size; victory in World War II taxed the Navy's capabilities to the limit. The Navy's rise to dominance was the result of its ability to learn and innovate.Learning War examines the Navy's doctrinal development throughout the 1898-1945 period and explains why it was so successful at embracing change. It is a revolutionary study of one of history's greatest success stories. It draws profoundly important conclusions that give new insight, not only into how the Navy succeeded in becoming the best, but also into how modern organizations can exploit today's rapid technological and social changes in their pursuit of success.Learning War argues that the Navy created a sophisticated learning system in the early years of the twentieth century that led to repeated innovations in the development of surface warfare tactics and doctrine. The conditions that allowedthese innovations to emerge are analyzed by considering the Navy as a complex adaptive system. Complexity has provided new perspectives for understanding in a variety of fields, including biology, economics, artificial intelligence, and international development. Learning War is the first major work to apply this approach to militaryhistory. It permits a richer understanding of the mechanisms that enable human organizations to evolve, innovate, and learn.These mechanisms are very important. In the Navy's case, the learning continued through the early years of World War II. Contrary to the standard view of military doctrine-that it changes in peacetime and is employed in wartime-this book makes the argument that the ability to modify doctrine in light of experience is crucial to wartime success. Organizations must evolve to be able to meet changing circumstances. This is true of all human organizations, military, business, or otherwise. The Navy's experience in the early twentieth century provides a window into how this kind of evolutionary change can be fostered and maintained.

Описание: The Adelphi Papers monograph series is the International Institute for Strategic Studies' principal contribution to policy-relevant, original academic research. Collected on the occasion of the Institute's 50th anniversary, the twelve Adelphi Papers in this volume represent some of the finest examples of writing on strategic issues.
