This book highlights the September 26, 2024 seminar of The Sir Richard Williams Foundation which was entitled: “Enhancing and Accelerating the Integrated Force: An Operational Perspective.” This seminar focused on how the force in being or the ready force was focused on improving its capability, its survivability and lethality for the fight tonight. For such a focus, one needs a sense of urgency for how to improve the force in the short to mid-term, rather than over emphasizing the long-term future and future force structure planning. In addition to the seminar report, Dr. Robbin Laird ...

Authors Simon Reich and Peter Dombrowski challenge the common view of grand strategy as unitary. They eschew prescription of any one specific approach, chosen from a spectrum that stretches from global primacy to restraint and isolationism, in favor of describing what America’s military actually does, day to day. They argue that a series of fundamental recent changes in the global system, the inevitable jostling of bureaucratic politics, and the practical limitations of field operations combine to ensure that each presidential administration inevitably resorts to a variety of strategies.

In every great conflict, we assume victory means triumph—the vanquishing of an enemy, the end of a threat, the closing of a chapter. But what if victory is never complete? What if the act of defeating an adversary fundamentally transforms the victor, embedding within them the very qualities, structures, and ideologies they sought to destroy? And The Abyss Gazes Back explores a paradox that recurs throughout human history: conquerors are conquered by what they defeat. From ancient empires to modern superpowers, from individual obsessions to civilizational transformations, this pattern ...

This book analyses the events leading up to the cluster munitions ban, the provisions of the treaty, as well as assesses the progress made in the years since towards a world without the presence of cluster munitions. Cluster bombs are weapons that are small but deadly. They often look like small metal canisters, and some of them are painted, giving them the innocuous appearance of a soda can. The unexploded submunitions that are scattered on the ground, in effect, act as landmines, that can kill or severely injure anyone who comes across them, sometimes even years and decades later. It has ...

Ein Funke—oder auch: ein Taurus-Marschflugkörper—genügt und in Deutschland herrscht Krieg. Grausamer und schlimmer als wir es uns vorstellen können. Ein Krieg, der unser aller Ende werden kann. Weshalb also haben deutsche Politiker noch immer keine Strategie entworfen, um den Krieg in der Ukraine politisch zu beenden? Diese Frage stellt Ex-General Erich Vad und entwirft ein furchterregendes Szenario, sollte der Ukraine-Krieg aus dem Ruder laufen und nach Deutschland übergreifen.

Seit dem russischen Überfall auf die Ukraine steht die deutsche Regierung unter maximalem Druck. Falsche Entscheidungen können zu einer unkontrollierbaren Eskalation des Krieges führen, auch zu Not und Unruhen im eigenen Land. Der preisgekrönte Journalist Stephan Lamby hat Olaf Scholz, Annalena Baerbock, Robert Habeck, Christian Lindner und andere in den dramatischen Monaten aus der Nähe beobachtet. Sein hochspannender Bericht liefert exklusive Einblicke in die Regierungszentrale während der schwersten internationalen Krise seit dem Zweiten Weltkrieg.

"Wir, die Völker der Vereinten Nationen – fest entschlossen, künftige Geschlechter vor der Geißel des Krieges zu bewahren, die zweimal zu unseren Lebzeiten unsagbares Leid über die Menschheit gebracht hat –, haben beschlossen: Alle Mitglieder unterlassen in ihren internationalen Beziehungen jede gegen die territoriale Unversehrtheit oder die politische Unabhängigkeit eines Staates gerichtete oder sonst mit den Zielen der Vereinten Nationen unvereinbare Androhung oder Anwendung von Gewalt.
