 | Recent analysis has shown the Foreign Humanitarian Assistance (FHA) mission to be a qualified strategic success. However, beneath the strategic success story is the fact that the ad hoc nature of FHA mission organization as prescribed by current doctrine runs contrary to the established operational principle of unity of effort. This paper will assess several models that seek to rectify this problem through establishing coordinating bodies within the current Joint ... |

| Back in 2006 Army Colonel Rob Baker published an article in Military Review entitled The Decisive Weapon: A Brigade Combat Team Commander's Perspective on Information Operations. Any information practitioner who reads this excellent piece will immediately latch on to the fact that Baker's brigade was not really conducting information operations (IO), but in fact was using strategic communication as its primary enabler. But wait...can you conduct strategic communication at the ... |

| The term human security first officially appeared on the scene of international relations in 1994, with a report by the United Nations Human Development Program. The concept has fast been gaining supporters and sparking associated intellectual debate. It challenges the traditional concept of security by contending that the central focus of security efforts should be the individual human being, not the nation state, as has been -- and remains -- ... |

By chronicling the doctrinal premises of U.S. intervention policy during the interwar years (1990-2001) and during the administration of George W. Bush (2001-2008), the article will demonstrate that the smart power approach of the Obama administration suggests continuity over radical change. Despite a liberal humanitarian orientation that in principle should ... |

| The metamorphosis of the United States Army's tactical Military Intelligence (MI) organization and doctrine since 1976 has been remarkable. Transitioning from a conglomerate of capabilities borrowed from disparate organizations, MI units became holistic MI organizations. Equipped with increasingly robust collection capability MI became ever more capable of all-source intelligence production. Change continues through the provision of MI capability to lower echelons.

| American civilian-military relations appear to be approaching a boiling point. As a result, the military is increasingly turning away from its traditional role as brokers of honesty and, consequently, Congress sees the military as little more than peddlers of hope for the executive branch. This circumstance weakens the effectiveness of the civilian-military relationship, curtails the ability of Congress to perform its constitutional role of oversight, and all but eliminates the ... |

| The principles of war have been a major part of the foundation for Joint Doctrine since its inception, and a broadening range of military operations has resulted in their evolution into the principles of joint operations. The range of domestic response roles for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and partner agencies has similarly grown.

| Throughout history, logistics has been the linchpin to success or failure of most military endeavors. Yet, logistics has never been at the forefront of transformation initiatives or dialogue. Logistics transformation occurs largely in reaction to combat operations as opposed to establishing proactive systems to support future combat operations and capabilities. Instead, advancements in logistics doctrine traditionally originate with the ingenuity of the American Soldier. Our ability to adapt to combat ... |

| Force modernization is more like a warfighting campaign than an industrial process. Volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity inherent in all its key factors and enablers make modernization as much an operational art as a scientific method. Therefore, modernization, like warfare, would operate more effectively and responsively under an authoritative body of doctrine rather than under layers of detailed prescriptive and legally binding regulations. At the core of a body of ... |

| This study attempts to enhance understanding of the American strategic bombing crisis that occurred in Europe during 1943, when heavy losses of unescorted bombers temporarily derailed the air campaign against Germany. Most analyses of the crisis conclude that the United States erred by not designing a long-range escort fighter earlier. In contrast, this thesis investigates the development, evolution, and execution of Air Corps strategic bombing doctrine over the period from ... |

In 1998, they tested nuclear weapons, and since then they have deployed ballistic missiles, enunciated nuclear doctrine, and made organizational changes to their nuclear establishments. In 2002, they teetered on the brink of war in Kashmir. This paper summarizes Indian and Pakistani nuclear weapon capabilities and thinking. It also ... |
