Military Transformation and Strategy: Revolutions in Military Affairs and Small States de Bernard Loo

Military Transformation and Strategy: Revolutions in Military Affairs and Small States: Contemporary Security Studies

Editat de Bernard Loo
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 aug 2008
This book explores the idea of a ‘revolution in military affairs’ (RMA), which underpins the transformational agenda of the US military, and examines its implications for smaller states.
The strategic studies literature on the RMA tends to be American-centric and directed towards the strategic problems of the US military. This volume seeks to fill the gap in the literature and establish an intellectual framework that can assist other, smaller powers in their respective approaches to this issue.
The book does so in three main sections; Part I focuses on questions of transformations in strategy and war; Part II explores transformations in operations; while Part III examines possible impediments to an RMA.
This book will be of much interest to students of Military Studies, Asian Studies, Strategic Studies and International Relations in general.
