Summary/Abstract |
Defence planning needs to be based on political guidance, and taht guidance should make its assumptions explicit. Sometimes we neglect this, and oversight can prove costly. Conditions, which is to say contexts, can change, and so shold the working assumptions behind policy.

Summary/Abstract |
How to cope with uncertainty-this is the central unavoidable challenge to defense planning. The problem is how to finesse the fact that the future is unknown. Although we cannot know what will happen, we can call upon a great deal of experience to provide helpful guidance. We know: that the future is not "foreseeable"; that the past is our best guide to the future; that history often is non-linear; that history moves more in circles than ever-onwards toward 'progress'; that the present is an unreliable guide to what is to come; that history is too complex to be reconstructed usefully by playing "what if …"; that scientific prediction is utterly unreliable; that tragedy happens; that human folly is always possible; that people matter profoundly; and that people(s) fight for reasons of "fear, honor, and interest," as they always have. Warned by these major caveats, we can adopt some useful precepts to guide defense planning.

Summary/Abstract |
Geography is context for all strategic history. Everything must happen in geography, while many conflicts actually are about geography. Geopolitics is the political meaning of geography. Ironically, the pervasiveness of geography in its relevance to strategy renders its influence somewhat elusive. When everything has some geographical content and meaning, geography tends to escape the analyst's notice: because it is everywhere, it might as well be nowhere. A focus on the geography of deterrence brings the influence of geography, physical, psychological, and political, into useful focus. The geopolitical dimension to deterrence is not well-tilled scholarly ground. This is unfortunate, because the prospects for successful deterrence can be impacted heavily by the relevant geographical context. There is physical geography and there is also the geography of the imagination. Deterrence typically is geopolitical, but if the political meaning of geography is discounted, deterrence challenges will not be properly understood.
