The complex political situation that has formed in Iraq, and is currently ongoing, has again provided a lot of evidence as to the many changes that have occurred in military strategy. However, the current preparedness of modern military leadership has existed in an imperfect system and is slow to adapt to the situation in Iraq. This has dangerous implications. The recent analysis of previous wars and armed conflicts considers them new forms of warfare. Today we are so far removed from the classical form of warfare, such as World War II, that we cannot compare the role of the military leader in those conflicts with the situation leaders face in Iraq, Afghanistan, Bosnia, Sierra Leone, or Sudan. Therefore, the entire system of military education for leaders demands a revolution change. This project examines the different schools currently used in the Armed Forces of the United States, Russia, and Ukraine and the way they prepare their strategic leaders. The research reveals a distinct disconnect in modern military strategy which is taught in schools, and the way that strategy is practiced in current military operations. Recommendations are provided to adjust the modern system of military education in order to prepare those leaders to leading future wars.

Since the end of bipolarism, the concept of asymmetric warfare, and of asymmetric conflict in general, has been increasingly applied with regard to armed forces activities and tasks. This book presents the findings of comparative empirical research conducted in selected military units by a group of distinguished experts on military organization, who hail from the eight participating countries: Bulgaria, Cameroon, Denmark, Finland, Italy, Lithuania, the Philippines and Spain. It discusses remarks made by military leaders with extensive experience in the field regarding current doctrines on military leadership and their applicability in the field, as well as proposals and suggestions for new directions. “It is a complex relation, always based on respect and politeness, but often with mismatched interests.” (Army Colonel). “It makes you realize that there is a cultural gap. You must firstly understand who you are going to relate to, and the culture of these people, and then try to establish a certain kind of relationship. Often the platoon commander states his objective and must try to establish a relationship, contact with the village chief.” (Army Lieutenant, Platoon Commander). “[In Afghanistan] We had meals with the locals, sometimes the food didn’t taste good, but you had to eat it if you wanted to be welcomed back again” (Army Captain, Company Commander). These are just some of the many voices stemming from the ground in diverse international asymmetric conflict theatres (in Iraq, in Kosovo, in Afghanistan...), comments by military officers, commanders at different hierarchical levels, asked to reflect on their experiences as military leaders in crisis response operations. Military professionals, and military leaders in particular, perceive themselves as facing ambiguous situations that require an update in their professional training, and new skills to confront unexpected and unpredictable factors. Drawing on lived experiences, the book offers insights into what a new kind of leadership means when leaders have to cope with diverse and unclear missions. It also addresses leadership styles and behaviours, as well as individual adaptive behaviours on the part of military leaders, with special reference to middle and middle-high level ranks, such as captains, majors and colonels. Given its scope, the book will appeal not only to military professionals and military affairs scholars and experts, but also to readers interested in gaining a better understanding of the challenges that international expeditionary units are facing in crisis areas around the globe.

When the U.S. military invaded Iraq, it lacked a common understanding of the problems inherent in counterinsurgency campaigns. It had neither studied them, nor developed doctrine and tactics to deal with them. It is fair to say that in 2003, most Army officers knew more about the U.S. Civil War than they did about counterinsurgency. The U.S. Army / Marine Corps Counterinsurgency Field Manual was written to fill that void. The result of unprecedented collaboration among top U.S. military experts, scholars, and practitioners in the field, the manual espouses an approach to combat that emphasizes constant adaptation and learning, the importance of decentralized decision-making, the need to understand local politics and customs, and the key role of intelligence in winning the support of the population. The manual also emphasizes the paradoxical and often counterintuitive nature of counterinsurgency operations: sometimes the more you protect your forces, the less secure you are; sometimes the more force you use, the less effective it is; sometimes doing nothing is the best reaction. An new introduction by Sarah Sewall, director of the Carr Center for Human Rights Policy at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, places the manual in critical and historical perspective, explaining the significance and potential impact of this revolutionary challenge to conventional U.S. military doctrine. An attempt by our military to redefine itself in the aftermath of 9/11 and the new world of international terrorism, The U.S. Army / Marine Corps Counterinsurgency Field Manual will play a vital role in American military campaigns for years to come. The University of Chicago Press will donate a portion of the proceeds from this book to the Fisher House Foundation, a private-public partnership that supports the families of America’s injured servicemen.

Tato kniha poskytuje nový vhled do problematiky účasti České republiky na mnohonárodních operacích vedených NATO v zahraničí, plánování obranné politiky a potenciálu, jakým ČR disponuje pro poskytování příspěvků do takových operací. S využitím kvalitativní analýzy rozhovorů s civilními a vojenskými experty, doplněné o obsahové analýzy relevantních politických a vojenských dokumentů, autorka zkoumá hlavní charakteristiky, specifické atributy, stejně jako problémy, se kterými se ČR doposud musela vypořádat během adaptace na nové bezpečnostní prostředí ve 21. století. Kniha představuje vůbec první případovou studii implementace protipovstalecké doktríny NATO státem, který není supervelmoc v geopolitickém, ekonomickém nebo vojenském smyslu slova a který má pouze omezené přímé zkušenosti s uměním řízení konfliktů, kterému dnes říkáme protipovstalectví.

During recent interviews with U.S. Army commanders, researchers from the U.S. Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences learned of a critical requirement for training to support missions aimed at developing and supporting legitimate host-nation governance (HNG). Unfortunately, such training is not currently available. Therefore, the primary purposes of this report were to document the Army's need for governance-related training and provide a tool to aid upcoming efforts to address that need. Through interviews with Soldiers and leaders, we confirmed the training needs initially communicated to us, and learned of the governance activities of Soldiers at squad, platoon, company, and battalion levels. Through a review of recent Army Field Manuals 3-24, 3-07, and 3-24.2, we demonstrated that doctrine has provided an extensive framework upon which governance training can be developed. Through a review of academic and non-governmental literature, we identified commonly used indicators of governance and made note of important considerations for their use. We conclude our report with a preliminary research plan with which we will pursue the development of training that will prepare Soldiers to develop, enhance, and support local level HNG.
