Defence Planning for the 1990s and the Changing International Environment
Defense Planning in a Decade of Change
Author: Eric Victor Larson
Publisher: Rand Corporation
ISBN: 9780833030245
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
The end of the Cold War ushered in an era of profound change in the international arena and hence in the policymaking environment as well. Yet the changes that have characterized the post-Cold War era have often proceeded at different paces and have at times moved in opposing directions, placing unprecedented strain on policymakers seeking to shape a new national security and military strategy. This report describes the challenges policymakers have faced as seen through the lens of the three major force structure reviews that have taken place over the past decade: the 1990 Base Force, the 1993 Bottom-Up Review, and the 1997 Quadrennial Defense Review. The report focuses on the assumptions, decisions, and outcomes associated with these reviews as well as the planning and execution of each. It concludes that all three reviews fell short of fully apprehending the demands of the emerging threat environment, and the budgets that would be needed and afforded, resulting in a growing imbalance between strategy, forces, and resources over the decade. Accordingly, the report recommends that future defense planners adopt an assumption-based approach in which key planning assumptions are continually reassessed with a view toward recognizing--and rapidly responding to--emerging gaps and shortfalls.

Defence Planning as Strategic Fact
Author: Henrik Breitenbauch
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000732177
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 202
Book Description
Defence Planning as Strategic Fact provides and elaborates on an "upstream" focus on the variegated organizational, political and conceptual practices of military, civilian administrative and political leaderships involved in defence planning, offering an important security and strategic studies supplement to the traditional "downstream" focus on the use of force. The book enables the reader to engage with the role of ideas in defence planning, of organizational processes and biases, path dependencies and administrative dynamics under the pressures of continuously changing domestic and international constraints. The chapters show how defence planning must be seen as a constitutive element of defence and strategic studies – that it is a strategic fact of its own which merits particular practical and scholarly attention. As defence planning creates the conditions behind every peace upheld or broken and every war won or lost, Defence Planning as Strategic Fact will be of great use to scholars of defence studies, strategic studies, and military studies. This book was originally published as a special issue of Defence Studies.

Willy Brandt and International Relations
Author: Bernd Rother
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1350040436
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
While there are many books that deal with Brandt's foreign policy as West German Chancellor, Willy Brandt and International Relations is the only book to deal with Brandt's politics as elder statesman between 1974 and 1992. The editors have assembled a group of authors from Germany, the USA, Latin America and Europe to assess Brandt's important role in global affairs during the waning decades of the Cold War. The chapters follow Brandt beyond his resignation as Chancellor in 1974, after which he continued his position as chairman of Social Democratic party and became chairman of the Socialist International. His international politics were above all focused on Europe, Latin America and the United States. He was keen on finding new partners in the 'Third World' such as Latin America and the Caribbean, leading to conflicts with the U.S. administration which caused problems for West German foreign policy. The authors also examine global challenges that occurred after 1989, such as Brandt's handling of German unification, the Kuwait crisis of 1991 and the first Gulf War. Willy Brandt and International Relations provides a new perspective on decades of Cold War relations and beyond through the work of an influential statesman and political thinker. It is an illuminating book for students and scholars of the Cold War and international relations.

Defense Planning for the Late 1990s
Author: Michael E. O'Hanlon
Publisher: Brookings Institution Press
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 172
Book Description
Explores the formal, structural, and semantic domains of how poems end, the questions of goals and actions, and the direction by which poems get to the end and in which the end leads. Considers poems by Shakespeare, Leopardi, Coleridge, Keats, Holderlin, Baudelaire, Wallace Stevens, and Celan. Finds that the most interesting endings direct the reader to language and thought that is necessarily beyond the poem itself and the act of reading it. Most of the non-English excerpts include translations. Earlier versions of some chapters have been published in academic journals. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
