Summary/Abstract |
As our current wars in Iraq and Afghanistan wind down, political deliberations in this country return to a familiar pattern. Intent on "not re-fighting
the last war," a debate about future military strategy dominates the discussion. As in the past, the debate is sharpened by a budget ax suspended over
the Department of Defense. The services anticipate funding cuts so deep as
to allow for only one strategic approach to survival. And, as in the past, many
approach the problem as bureaucrats defending turf, rather than as strategists
objectively creating a military that will best serve the nation.
