A Framework for Considering the Impact of Innovation on Strategy. Technological Progress: A Shaper or a Facilitator for Geopolitical Analysis?

A Framework for Considering the Impact of Innovation on Strategy. Technological Progress: A Shaper or a Facilitator for Geopolitical Analysis?

Author(s): Antonia Colibasanu / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2020

Innovation is usually associated with technological progress. In intelligenceanalysis, progress is driven by the challenges the analysts see in discerninguseful information from the vast array of data available. For geopoliticalanalysis – which is used during the strategic decision-making process, progressaims at understanding those details that influence the national status quo, andultimately the state’s security related imperatives. This is why it is importantto understand what really constitutes “change” and how progress, includingtechnological progress, may help (or limit) our ability in pointing it out andunderline its importance from the very beginning. This article aims at deliveringa conceptual framework for looking at the way progress shapes society – andhow it is linked with innovation for strategic decision-making.

A grassroots grown military

Author(s): Milan Lelich / Language(s): English / Issue: 3-4/2016

In a matter of just two years, the devastated Ukrainian army has turned itself into one of the most efficient armies in Europe, mostly thanks to volunteers and private donations. However, reform of the defence system has lagged due to the rampant corruption and bureaucracy of the state, forcing many volunteers to give up.

A Guantánamói Haditengerészeti Bázis szerepe az amerikai-kubai kétoldalú kapcsolatok tükrében

Author(s): Eszter Réti / Language(s): Hungarian / Issue: 1/2019

The article provides a brief summary of the political situation in Guantanamo Bay and the dispute it has generated between the United States of America and Cuba. The Guantanamo Naval Base, referred to as Gitmo by the Anglo-Saxon press, is under US jurisdiction, but located in Cuban territory and operates as a military enclave in Cuba. It works as an island within an island and has been a restrictive factor in the normalisation of bilateral relations. The article gives a brief explanation on Guantanamo Bay’s historical background, highlighting its territorial and geopolitical importance, pointing out the diffi culties the operation of the military base causes, and outlining diverse professional viewpoints about its future. In spite of the Cuban government expecting the Unites States to withdraw their military forces from the territory and return the base fully back to Cuba, the US has no such intentions. Nevertheless some American experts have shared their opinion on how to take advantage of the American military base operating in Cuban territory.

A looming crisis of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Force Treaty: Sources and consequences

A looming crisis of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Force Treaty: Sources and consequences

Author(s): Yury Fedorov / Language(s): English / Publication Year: 2015

Russia’s violation of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Force Treaty (INF) confirms that Moscow sees nuclear weapons as a robust tool preventing NATO from militarily opposing the Russian military expansion in the strategic rim stretching from the Baltic to the Black Sea. If Russia adds intermediate-range missiles to its armory the INF Treaty will collapse, thus challenging the USA and NATO with a dilemma: they could either to be reconciled with Russia’s growing military threat to Europe, or neutralize this threat by stationing American nuclear missiles near Russian borders. The countries of Central-Eastern Europe have to support deployment of new US nuclear weapons in Europe since it could be the only way to prevent a dangerous deterioration of the security landscape in the region.

A Middle Eastern Perspective on Partner Capacity Building

A Middle Eastern Perspective on Partner Capacity Building

Author(s): Habib M. Sayah / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2016

Overall, counterinsurgency should be rethought from the perspective of Arab-Muslim host states facing a domestic or regional insurgency, far from orthodox conceptions of this paradigm. A renewed, indigenous understanding of COIN could become the strategic operating concept, guiding the “positioning and application of kinetic (military) and political (non-military) uses of power to achieve national (strategic) aims,” underpinning MENA states’ national efforts to address their domestic and regional challenges and improving cooperation between them and their NATO allies. For these purposes we should adopt a holistic, flexible approach to COIN, and train and prepare armies and civilian players to respond adequately to complex insurgencies.

A Military-Historical Retrospective of the Identity of the Ukrainian Armed Forces

A Military-Historical Retrospective of the Identity of the Ukrainian Armed Forces

Author(s): Igor Kopõtin / Language(s): English / Issue: 7/2017

One characteristic of the organisational culture of the armed forces is the collectivist disciplinary model. This model is based on values that have developed by the officers’ corps as ‘experts of violence’. Military professionalism is considered to the main value-based concept and is shaped by military, instrumental, nationalist, and traditionalist aspects. A military (self)-identity based on the above aspects can be seen as a type of formalism that is the sum total of other values of individual and collective (including the unconscious) identity. In other words, a serviceman, especially an officer, may also be influenced by the elements of his other non-military identities, e.g. ethnic, religious, political, sexual, or other value-based identities.

A MULTI-CRITERIA ANALYSIS OF AIR COMMUNICATION PLATFORMS WITHIN THE HYBRID OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT

A MULTI-CRITERIA ANALYSIS OF AIR COMMUNICATION PLATFORMS WITHIN THE HYBRID OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT

Author(s): Cătălin Cioacă,Daniela Ștefănescu / Language(s): English / Issue: 3/2015

The air communication platforms, using the accelerated technological progress with spectacular effects in the field of developed performance, takes an important role in providing information regarding connectivity in this field. The requirements which the military communications systems must fulfill are formulated in connection with mission objectives. Quantification of the utility for air communications platforms using binomial multi-criteria analysis and analytic hierarchy process provides decision makers with the basic knowledge needed to increase the operational capabilities of forces. The planning process must integrate the requirement of continuous, secure distance communications under any circumstances. The designed model gives the opportunity to identify the best solutions for increasing the utility of aerial communications platforms (tactical satellites, high, medium and low altitude aerial platforms) in various contexts and scenarios.

A NATO Solution for Macedonia

A NATO Solution for Macedonia

Author(s): Specified No Author / Language(s): English / Publication Year: 2008

Macedonia hopes to get an invitation to join the NATO alliance, along with Croatia and Albania, at next month's NATO Summit in Bucharest. However, the prospects of Macedonia to be invited to NATO membership when the NATO allies meet on 2-4 April 2008, is in a state of impasse, with Greece having made it clear that it would veto in the NATO summit any decision for inviting Macedonia to join the Alliance, unless Macedonia and Greece would agree on the name dispute, which under current circumstances will be difficult to happen. Macedonia’s name, the Greeks say, implies territorial aspirations on their own northern province, also called Macedonia.

A NEW APPROACH TO ANALYZING THE CURRENT GLOBAL SYSTEM

A NEW APPROACH TO ANALYZING THE CURRENT GLOBAL SYSTEM

Author(s): Răzvan Buzatu / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2014

It is always a challenge to see the world as it is or through someone else’s eyes or through everybody’s eyes or through the lenses of the system that we created in the past several millennia. The present paper endeavors to provide the necessary instruments to use a multilens approach to analyzing how this complex dynamic and adaptive system that we call the world works. Based on this approach, I am analyzing the status of development and evolution of the core of this system, which, for now, it is still the nation-state. I am also using the fact that we created this global system within the eco-system and that, in this moment, if we want to see what are our problems, but also our solutions, we should look at the world as a single organism, but also as distinct parts, because we are still divided between our reductionist approach and an integrated complex approach.

A NEW CHALLENGE REGARDING REGIONAL SECURITY. ROMANIA – PART OF VISEGRAD GROUP AND/OR CRAIOVA GROUP

A NEW CHALLENGE REGARDING REGIONAL SECURITY. ROMANIA – PART OF VISEGRAD GROUP AND/OR CRAIOVA GROUP

Author(s): Virgil Bălăceanu / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2014

The Ukraine crisis dramatically changes the security paradigm in Europe, especially in the areas of NATO and EU borders. The current state of affairs is an unfortunate one from a regional and European security and stability point of view and it contemporizes once again not only aspects related to the highly destructive conflicts of the past century, but also reveals the necessity of developing and initiating multiple new modalities of cooperation in the field of security. The importance of defense itself gains new understanding, following a period of time when these aspects were regarded as not being that important, especially from a political point of view. The regional defense cooperation forms that are in full effect at the moment will definitely be consolidated with a larger concentration of cooperation domains in the essential directions, like arms cooperation, joint training and strategic and operation cooperation, as well as the ones generating the force. The lessons learned from the northern states’ regional cooperation will be applied in other areas, as we will be seeing a rapid development of the ways and measures of the military cooperation of the Visegrad Group, as Poland becomes a worthwhile player in regard to national defense, but also in regard to the way it represents its security interests, especially in its area of influence. Until now, the military cooperation in southeastern Europe depended on outdated and lacking in substance forms. This is where the important role that Romania can play could come into effect, in organizing and maintaining the so called Craiova Group, where along Bulgaria and Serbia it can promote its defense interests in an essential space in regard to the possible maneuvering of forces in order to assure the joint national defense.

A NEW STRATEGY FOR IRAQ AND THE CONTINUATION OF THE WAR AGAINST TERRORISM

A NEW STRATEGY FOR IRAQ AND THE CONTINUATION OF THE WAR AGAINST TERRORISM

Author(s): Constantin Gheorghe Balaban / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2007

Immediately after the 9/11 events, the whole world was on America’s side in its anti-terrorism campaign but in more than five years after the event this unity was abraded. In March 2003, USA started the Iraqi war which – although seemed to end very quickly – today is a true cask with powder. There is no day without killings and the tensions between Shi’a and Sunni turn to a civil war. The El Pais newspaper wrote that the continuity of the USA’s participation to this long and bloody fight probably will make that its end to be a “frontal encounter with Iran and with a great part of the Islamic world”1 . In the same time, USA has a new engagement in Afghanistan where the intensification of the Talibans’ attacks forced Washington to think of the troops’ supplementation in the theatre, despite a more stressed opposition of the democrats and the American population. The White house Administration now tries to redefine its preventive action conception and will continue its plans regarding the emplacement the antimissile shield2 on Czech and Poland territories, “no matter if the NATO allies agree or not” - as general Henry Obring, the head of the Antimissile Defence Agency, stated3 . President Bush motivated that “our nation depends on foreign oil and this dependence makes us more vulnerable to hostile regimes, to terrorists. Furthermore, brings us more prejudices to our economy”. References to the new American strategy for Iraq and to the continuation of the war against the terrorism try to clarify this hot subject that some analysts watch with concern and appreciate as an indirect contribution of USA to the terrorism dissemination.

A Political History of Civil-Military Relations in Yemen

A Political History of Civil-Military Relations in Yemen

Author(s): Khaled Fattah / Language(s): English / Issue: Special/2010

Civil-military relations are power relations that encompass not only the relations between the military and political elite, but further all relations between the military and society at all levels. In the case of Yemen, the poorest, least developed and weakest political entity in the Middle East, such relations are articulated on the basis and within the context of a tribal state. This article analyzes the complex role played by tribal-military networks in shaping the current state-society relations in Yemen. The article highlights how, throughout its modern history, the central authority in Yemen has seen its power limited by its military weakness, in comparison to the armed strength of the tribes. The article argues that politics of survival and regional structural factors are at the heart of the failure of Yemen‟s military to perform its task as a modernizing agent. To achieve its objectives, the article traces the historical roots of the establishment of Yemen‟s modern army, marks the interventions of Yemen‟s military in politics, identifies the ideological currents within its officer corps, and analyzes the patterns of cooperation and control between the military, tribal elites and the political administration.

Author(s): Gheorghe Văduva / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2008

In the huge Euro-Asian platform, there are two countries with an exceptional Euro-Asian geographic position: Russia and Turkey. The first one is from an inexhaustible root, the biggest country in the world, geopolitically and territorially speaking, and comprises almost all that is stable and natural, hidden resources even mysterious from the European and the Euro-Asian continents. The other one is an essential country, a synthesis one. The first – huge Russia – generates forces, resources and potential. The latter – cursed, controversial and isolated Turkey – becomes more and more a country of synthesis and, consequently, an exceptional geopolitical and geo-strategic valuable space.

A POSSIBLE ROMANIAN-AMERICAN NAVAL STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP

A POSSIBLE ROMANIAN-AMERICAN NAVAL STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP

Author(s): Ioan Crăciun,Auraș Liviu COMAN / Language(s): English / Publication Year: 0

How can the United States increase the responsiveness of US forces to reinforce the South-Eastern NATO flank in the Black Sea? Geopolitical changes have led to calls for the necessity to update the Montreux Convention. These restrictions can be avoided in this situation if the US would rent or lease at a reasonable price warships to the Romanian Navy that fly the Romanian flag, and are operated by a Romanian-American crew. Montreux Convention rules may be avoided by building an innovative partnership, a solid and reliable agreement between US Navy and Romanian Navy. Subsequently, a Multinational Task Group composed of American, Romanian, and Black Sea littoral countries’ ships can be consolidated. The result will be beneficial to the US, NATO, EU, and Black Sea countries.This naval partnership has to be created to support Aegis Ashore Missile Defense System Deveselu, to rebuild a military and security power in the region, and change the balance of power.
