Abstract:
The 1,000-ship navy concept and the Global Maritime Partners Initiative are both part of an ongoing effort to define a new maritime strategy. This paper explains the expanded list of maritime security threats articulated by Admiral Mullen, U.S. Navy Chief of Naval Operations. It also outlines efforts to develop cooperative relationships to confront these threats, which negatively impact the globalized economy. Such relationships facilitate information and intelligence sharing with commercial maritime interests, other U.S. Government organizations involved with maritime security, and international counterparts. This paper outlines the strengths and weaknesses of these ideas in terms of the implementation of a new maritime strategy. Finally, the paper makes recommendations regarding public diplomacy, intra-U.S. Government cooperation, international cooperation, and technology application to eliminate barriers that inhibit implementation of these ideas.
