PROCEEDINGS OF THE SYMPOSIUM: THE U.S. ARMY'S LIMITED-WAR MISSION AND SOCIAL SCIENCE RESEARCH, 26, 27, 28 MARCH 1962

Abstract

The three general objectives of the symposium were (1) to present a clear picture of the Army's limited-war mission, with special emphasis on its counterinsurgency mission; (2) to identify the Army's requirements for behavioral and social science research and to stimulate the interest of members of the behavioral and social science community in the Army's research and development programs; and (3) to promote understanding of the Army's research and development efforts and coordination with the efforts of other government agencies and departments which have similar or overlapping (but not duplicate) interests in counterinsurgency problems.
