CNA 2000 Annual Conference Quicklook Report

Abstract

CNA convened a conference of over 200 national security professionals in late November 2000.Through a series of panels and discussions, conference participants considered a number of specific issues, including the role of the military, the perceptions of a personnel and morale crisis, the pros and cons of a sea-based component of national missile defense, how to strike the right balance between fostering intellectual competition among the services and ensuring they can work together in real-world operations, the degree to which "transformation" driven by technology should govern our thinking, and the appropriate priorities for the Defense Department during the coming year. This memorandum summarizes the insights we gained.
