Summary / Abstract (Note) | Whether there is the public appetite, or indeed the military means available, for future large-scale military operations abroad, the security threats posed by weak and failing states have not disappeared. One challenge is how to generate the mass for stabilisation. Britain has a long history of small-scale but effective training and mentoring relationships with countries of strategic importance. A revitalised approach to building capacity in other nations - using the right people and structures - could have an important part to play in British security in an age of austerity. |
