This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The confluence of a variety of factors especially exponential population growth, rapidly escalating population migration, and an unprecedented pace of urbanization-has increased the likelihood that each U.S. military operation will have a humanitarian or nation-assistance component. In the conduct of humanitarian or nation-assistance missions, be they free-standing or part of bigger operations, the military will usually encounter-and often support-civilians. They may be representatives from various U.S. government departments and offices, United Nations (UN) agencies' representatives, and/or personnel from nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) who have established their own aid operations. This growing nexus of civilian and military efforts requires increased coordination to maximize each player's contribution and to avoid both redundancies and contradictory efforts. While all the services will contribute to humanitarian and nation-assistance missions, the Army brings unique scope, capacity, and resources to these missions and thus will bear more of the responsibility for interacting with civilian agencies and organizations. This research focused on identifying how the interagency process-at the policy, operational, and field levels can both complicate and enhance U.S. Army forces contributions to military operations other than war (MOOTW).

Download or read book The Interagency and Counterinsurgency Warfare written by Joseph R. Cerami and published by Strategic Studies Institute. This book was released on 2007 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades since the formation of the defense establishment under the 1947 National Security Act, all U.S. cabinet departments, national security agencies, and military services involved in providing for the common defense have struggled to overcome differences in policy and strategy formulation, organizational cultures, and even basic terminology. Post-September 11, 2001, international systems, security environments, U.S. military campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq, and the greater Global War on Terrorism have confronted civilian policymakers and senior military officers with a complex, fluid battlefield which demands kinetic and counterinsurgency capabilities. This monograph addresses the security, stability, transition, and reconstruction missions that place the most pressure on interagency communication and coordination. The results from Kabul to Baghdad reveal that the interagency process is in need of reform and that a more robust effort to integrate and align civilian and military elements is a prerequisite for success.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not since World War II has the U.S. Government adopted a national security strategy where all the elements of national power were directed to support the nation's national security strategy. Since World War II, many of the conflicts the U.S. has engaged in have not been a coordinated U.S. Government (USG) effort to win these conflicts. In fact, many U.S. departments and agencies seem to play no role or only a minor role in such conflicts. Many of the problems identified with reconstruction and stabilization during the Iraq War can be attributed to the lack of qualified USG personnel with expertise in areas where the military lacks sufficient expertise. Our military has attempted to pick up the shortfall in interagency support, but it lacks the expertise that the U.S. Government could provide to succeed in these peace-making operations. This research provides recommendations to reform the U.S. Government's interagency process to support contingency operations.

Download or read book National Power and the Interagency Process written by and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhibitions about using force can distance the military from participation in interagency decision making. As a result other instruments of national power may be exhausted before serious attention is given to the unique capabilities of the Armed Forces, and then only with a deep sense of having failed in employing other means. The interagency process, especially when military planners are involved throughout, can represent a significant force multiplier, but it suffers from deficiencies in methods, actors, and structure. Military officers, accustomed to a settled and demanding system of staff work, may be frustrated by governmental mechanisms which are known for elasticity and ambivalence. But the military should remain engaged in the interagency process both to make it more effective and to ensure that the military voice is heard at the table. Officers can educate the interagency community about military capabilities and, more importantly, about the limitations of force.
Download or read book Defensive Information Operations written by James T. Schutze and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States military has long held the mission of protecting this country against foreign attack. One of the biggest threats facing the United States in the 21st century, however, is of a far different nature than that of a conventional armed attack. A cyber attack zeroing in on critical information or on the information systems which support critical national infrastructures could be launched from any corner of the globe, by a variety of potential state and non-state actors, and could be directed against military or civilian targets. Due to the quantity, complexity, and diverse ownership of this country's information systems and critical infrastructures, no single governmental or private agency can single-handedly provide an adequate defense. As a result, the nation's information and infrastructure protection effort requires governmental interagency and private sector cooperation. The Department of Defense, as a key player in the interagency effort, must rapidly respond to information attacks in coordination with a host of government departments and agencies, including the Departments of Commerce, Justice and State. It must be prepared to defend its own information and infrastructure; to support other government agencies in their defense, enforcement, and consequence management functions; and to counterattack with information operations weapons. This paper discusses the nature and level of the cyber threat and DoD's roles in countering it in an interagency environment. The paper also looks at the legal issues DoD must consider in planning and executing its information defense mission. It examines the current arrangement for protection of the nation's infrastructure and suggests there are organizational issues impeding the speed and effectiveness of the country's defense that must be addressed.
Download or read book Military Commissions and the Interagency Process written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Typically, the interagency process is a deliberate, bureaucratic, often lengthy procedure that involves communication, coordination, and cooperation between and amongst the various Executive Departments and Agencies, as well as with Congress. Administration officials, politicians, the media, and interest groups are all familiar with what some call "red tape" but most recognize as democracy. During periods of national crisis, however, priorities change. In the aftermath of 11 September, "business as usual" became the exception, not the rule, and the normal tensions between the branches of government were heightened. This paper will examine the interagency process surrounding President Bush's Military Order creating military commissions. It will analyze the roles of Congress, the Administration, the media, and concerned citizens and how they, and the process, affected the final product.
