Summary/Abstract |
A Japanese military intelligence agency has been continuously operating globally since 1871, and Russia has been consistently a major target of it. Following the end of the intervention in 1922, the government of Japan proceeded to improve relations with the USSR, for which reason the intelligence services of the Empire monitored military and economic capacity-building measures and the foreign policy of the Soviet authorities in the Far East, refraining from subversive activities. Soviet national security agencies managed to feed the military intelligence of Japan, the central intelligence body of the Empire, with overstated information about the status of the Red Army. That is why, from 1923 to 1931, Tokyo's military planning with respect to the USSR was defensive in nature.

Summary/Abstract |
Latin American scholars often maintain that militaries should be kept out of internal security operations. Soldiers, they claim, are ill suited for these assignments, inevitably placing innocent civilians in harm’s way. This study instead argues that not all counternarcotic missions are the same. When a specific operation coincides with a military’s capabilities and proclivities, it can be conducted effectively and humanely. When there is a disconnect between the operation and the institution, there is a greater chance for mission failure and civilian casualties. Those differences are revealed in a comparative case study of the Mexican military’s crime patrols versus its targeted operations against cartel kingpins. It finds that while there are justifiable doubts about transforming soldiers into cops, it is also the case that soldiers can conduct themselves professionally and with restraint when they are tasked with assignments that conform more closely to their skills sets.
