Civil-Military Interaction During Disaster Response - A New Model

by Emily M. Chapman

~~63,59€~~ 57,23€ 10% OFF

 This book presents a model to help enhance civil-military interaction in disaster response settings for the benefit of affected communities and the host nation.Militaries are increasingly deploying to assist, or are present, in areas impacted by natural hazards. Drawing on the author’s own operational experience and recent case studies of natural hazard responses, the book contributes a practical and accessible approach to civil-military interaction that enables actors to negotiate a relationship where there is shared purpose. It establishes a theoretical foundation for civil-military interaction, which is then used to describe effective interaction as a process of coordination that consists of sequential and necessary conditions that contribute to humanitarian outcomes and operational effectiveness. The book is novel because it includes the voices of affected communities and it syntheses factors that influence civil-military interaction across case studies to argue that, where context allows, civilian and military actors should focus on building a purposeful relationship that places affected communities and local leadership at the forefront of responses. Using this book, practitioners will be supported to establish relationships that contribute to their respective purposes, taking into consideration the consequences of their actions on others.This book will be of much interest to students of civil-military relations, civil-military coordination, disaster responses, and International Relations in general.

Special Operations And National Security - Policies, Strategies, And Tactics

by Ben Gans

~~63,59€~~ 57,23€ 10% OFF

 This book focuses on strategic special operations and how these have led to the achievement of major foreign policy goals, which is illustrated by six case studies.The study specifically focuses on the alignment of the policies, strategies, and tactics that dominated these operations, providing a fresh perspective. Theoretically, the work underscores the continued relevance of relative superiority as the dominant theory in the field. Importantly, it aligns the potential ways of achieving and sustaining relative superiority with the ability to conduct contemporary special operations across multiple domains, thereby generating cross-dimensional effects. In terms of methodology, the book includes a description and analysis of six distinct case studies in special operations, ranging from short-term surgical strikes to sustained special warfare campaigns and spanning multiple geographic regions - including in Iran, Lebanon, Syria, Ukraine, and the South China Sea. From that perspective, relative superiority theory is extrapolated to explain how this critical condition can be achieved and sustained during protracted special operations. The unique value of this research is underscored by the author''s collection of exclusive primary source data on the operations in the respective countries. The book’s conclusions explain how the personnel involved fulfill the strategic promise of special operations, given their position within the larger framework of foreign policy.This book will be of much interest to students of special operations, military and strategic studies, defense studies, and security studies in general.
