An up-to-date analysis of what it means to be a medium maritime power and of the challenges facing medium-power navies and their governments when dealing with twenty-first century security and strategy issues. This book provides an up-to-date analysis of what it means to be a medium maritime power and of the challenges facing medium-power navies and their governments when dealing with twenty-first century security and strategy issues. It is intended as a work of real utility to contemporary naval strategists and decision makers in states with significant maritime interests but limited resources, such as the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Chile, India, France, Brazil and South Korea. The book builds significantly on the ground-breaking analytical work of Rear Admiral Richard Hill, particularly his 1986 book Maritime Strategy for Medium Powers, which has been the key work on maritime strategy written for medium power navies in the last half century. Maritime Strategy for Medium Powers in the Twenty-First Century covers the subject comprehensively, identifies the distinctive approaches needed for the development of medium-power maritime strategy, and includes short case studies of medium power navies. It also includes an appreciation of the life and work of Richard Hill, to whose memory the book is dedicated.
