Wraps. Presumed first edition/first printing. v, [1], 75, [3] p. Illustration. Endnotes. From an on-line posting: "The author uses a detailed assessment of the Russian experience in Afghanistan and Chechnya to draw important conclusions about asymmetric warfare. Even in this era of asymmetry, the U.S. Army exhibits a cultural preference for the "big war" paradigm. He suggests that the U.S. military in general, including the Army, needs a cultural transformation to master the challenge of asymmetry fully. ROBERT M. CASSIDY, a major in the U.S. Army, is the S3 of the 4th Brigade of the 4th Infantry Division (Mechanized). He has served as a heavy division cavalry executive officer, an assistant professor of international relations at West Point and as a cavalry troop commander in the 82nd Airborne Division. Major Cassidy is a graduate of the French Joint Defense College and has a Ph.D. in International Security from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University. The above information was current when the work was published by SSI." Very good. No dust jacket. Cover has slight wear and soiling.…

hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Peacekeeping in the Abyss offers a rigorous comparative study of British and American peacekeeping doctrine in the turbulent years following the Cold War, when Western militaries were thrust into complex, ambiguous conflicts. The book examines how each nation adapted its strategic thinking, operational methods, and political expectations in response to crises in places such as the Balkans, Africa, and the Middle East. Drawing on policy documents, military experience, and case-study analysis, it highlights the challenges of intervention, coalition operations, and the blurred lines between peacekeeping, peace enforcement, and nation-building. An essential volume for students of international security, military doctrine, and contemporary conflict management.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Since September 2001, the United States has waged what the government initially called the 'global war on terrorism (GWOT).' Beginning in late 2005 and early 2006, the term Long War began to appear in U.S. security documents such as the National Security Council's National Strategy for Victory in Iraq and in statements by the U.S. Secretary of Defense and the Chairman of the JCS. The description Long War-unlimited in time and space and continuing for decades-is closer to reality and more useful than GWOT. Colonel Robert Cassidy argues that this protracted struggle is more correctly viewed as a global insurgency and counterinsurgency. Al Qaeda and its affiliates, he maintains, comprise a novel and evolving form of networked insurgents who operate globally, harnessing the advantages of globalization and the information age. They employ terrorism as a tactic, subsuming terror within their overarching aim of undermining the Western-dominated system of states. Placing the war against al Qaeda and its allied groups and organizations in the context of a global insurgency has vital implications for doctrine, interagency coordination, and military cultural change-all reviewed in this important work. He first offers a distilled analysis of al Qaeda and its associated networks, with a particular focus on ideology and culture. In subsequent chapters, he elucidates the challenges big powers face when they prosecute counterinsurgencies, using historical examples from Russian, American, British, and French counterinsurgent wars before 2001. The book concludes with recommendations for the integration and command and control of indigenous forces and other agencies.…

Beginning in late 2005 and early 2006, the term Long War began to appear in U.S. security documents such as the National Security Council's National Strategy for Victory in Iraq and in statements by the U.S. Secretary of Defense and the Chairman of the JCS. The description Long War-unlimited in time and space and continuing for decades-is closer to reality and more useful than GWOT. Colonel Robert Cassidy argues that this protracted struggle is more correctly viewed as a global insurgency and coun-terinsurgency, AI Qaeda and its affiliates, he maintains, comprise a novel and evolving form of networked insurgents who operate globally, harnessing the advantages of globalization and the information age. They employ terrorism as a tactic, subsuming terror within their overarching aim of undermining the Western-dominated system of states. Placing the war against al Qaeda and its allied groups and organizations in the context of a global insurgency has vital implications for doctrine, interagency coordination, and military cultural change - all reviewed in this important work. Cassidy combines the foremost maxims of the most prominent Western philosopher of war and the most renowned Eastern philosopher of war to arrive at a threefold theme: know the enemy, know yourself, and know what kind of war you are embarking upon. To help readers arrive at that understanding, he first offers a distilled analysis of al Qaeda and its associated networks, with a particular focus on ideology and culture. In subsequent chapters, he elucidates the challenges big powers face when they prosecute counterinsurgencies, using historical examples from Russian, American, British, and French counterinsur-gent wars before 2001. The book concludes with recom-mendations for the integration and command and control of indigenous forces and other agencies.
