Chivvis.ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:2401962024-05-15T23:15:51Z2024-05-15T23:15:51Zby Chivvis, Christopher S.<br/>Call Number 355.031091821 22<br/>Publication Date 2009<br/>Summary "To address its security challenges, the United States needs the active support of its allies. This means, in particular, ensuring that the states of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) remain able and willing to make a contribution to resolving their common security problems wherever possible. The revision of NATO's strategic concept offers an excellent opportunity to further this aim. It is a chance to build consensus about the future and thereby steer the alliance in a direction that will help keep it relevant. This paper examines five possible directions--refocus on Europe, new focus on the greater Middle East, focus on fragile states, focus on nonstate threats, and a global alliance of liberal democracies--the alliance might adopt, assessing them against certain key political and military criteria. It offers those involved in the rewrite both a range of potential options and a preliminary assessment of the feasibility and potential implications of each. The purpose is to encourage debate around the major, concrete problems that member states face."--RAND web site.<br/>Format: Electronic Resources<br/><a href="http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=e900xww&AN=314474">Click here to view</a><br/>How 9/11 changed our ways of war / edited by James Burk.ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:2613002024-05-15T23:15:51Z2024-05-15T23:15:51Zby Burk, James, 1948-<br/>Call Number 355.033573 23<br/>Publication Date 2013<br/>Summary Following the 9/11 attacks, a war against al Qaeda by the U.S. and its liberal democratic allies was next to inevitable. But what kind of war would it be, how would it be fought, for how long, and what would it cost in lives and money? None of this was known at the time. What came to be known was that the old ways of war must change-but how?Now, with over a decade of political decision-making and warfighting to analyze, How 9/11 Changed Our Ways of War addresses that question. In particular it assesses how well those ways of war, adapted to fight terrorism, affect our milit.<br/>Format: Electronic Resources<br/><a href="http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=e900xww&AN=713408">Click here to view</a><br/>
