Summary/Abstract |
The single most important lesson to emerge from the recently announced 2015 defence outlay is what comes out each year: there will never be enough money. Hence, instead of carping about lesser funds for increased military threats, it would be wiser to cut the coat according to the cloth.

Summary/Abstract |
The article discusses U.S. naval operations in peacetime conditions as of Spring 2013. It argues that naval planners, theorists, and practitioners should adjust their approaches to peacetime naval operations, and that naval theory is not appropriate for peacetime missions. The article discusses the impact of globalization on maritime commerce, the evolution of criminal and military threats to U.S. national security, and the changing nature of international maritime law. The author presents an alternative framework aimed at reconceptualizing naval operations from peacetime to a war footing.

Summary/Abstract |
A Las my start in HMS Bermuda could have been disastrous. In clearing out the officers files of the previous commission, I had piled these up in the kneehole of my desk, awaiting a chance for them to be destroyed. Now we had in the Captain's office a young sailor - we will call him Snodgrass - who was the messenger.

Summary/Abstract |
South Asia comprises all countries from Pakistan in the West; Afghanistan in the North; Myanmar to the East; and the Indian Ocean on the south. Countries that till recently, were ruled by colonial powers that imposed their own brand of governance in keeping with their interests rather than those of the native people. It was only as recently as the mid-20th century that these nations shed the colonial yoke and started to develop indigenous means of governance (monarchical, democratic, autocratic, or totalitarian) as behooved historical national systems. These countries fell into the category of 'developing nations.' Unlike the more advanced western colonial powers, the agricultural and industrial revolutions in South Asia came about simultaneously and as late as the mid-20th century accompanied by the phenomenal socioeconomic turbulence that affected governance and its evolution in the 'developing nations.'

Summary/Abstract |
Despite continued strains on its economy, North Korea has yet to relinquish its nuclear weapons program. Coupled with such unwavering determination and tangible actions in the form of nuclear and missile tests, the perception that North Korea is only a threat within the region of the Korean peninsula and its immediate vicinity is antiquated. In fact, given the possibilities of North Korea exporting its missile or nuclear weapons technology to states such as Syria and Iran, ignoring the implications of the security threat posed by Pyongyang as global in scope would be committing a dangerous fallacy. Without exaggerating the threat through ulterior motives far removed from pursuing peace and stability in the region, one needs to set concrete principles on which to base a coherent policy toward North Korea. This would mean correctly identifying the threat from North Korea's arsenals, as well as departing from a highly paternalistic view of the North that only seeks to make Seoul more vulnerable to the security threat. In particular, coordinated bilateral cooperation between the respective administrations of Presidents Lee Myung-bak and Barack Obama may act as an auspicious harbinger to the possible resolution of the North Korean security threat.
