Description

So-called gray zone wars are not new, but they have highlighted shortcomings in the way the West thinks about war and strategy. This monograph proposes an alternative to the U.S. military's current campaign-planning framework, one oriented on achieving positional advantages over rival powers and built around the use of a coercion-deterrence dynamic germane to almost all wars as well as to conflicts short of war. AUDIENCE: This text may appeal to security analysts, military soldiers and leaders, policy practitioners, defense scholars, war planners and military strategists, and international relations teams that may be instrumental in achieving policy goals.Additionally, military historians, and students pursuing coursework in military science, international relations, and public administration may be interested in this work as a supplemental text.
