Study of Controlled Conflict.

Abstract

The study results are contained in two volumes. This volume contains all technical analyses and recommendations. This volume contains four chapters, each develops in sequence a theme that is likely to be important in a controlled conflict environment. Chapter 1 describes the concept of controlled conflict, identifies its characteristics, and compares controlled conflict with other forms of nuclear war. Chapter 2 takes the preparedness functions of a controlled conflict environment as a basis for analysis. Chapter 3 describes the role of analysis in decision-making and the characteristics of useful analytic strategies, gives specific examples of analytic routines that may be useful in preparedness planning and coordination for controlled conflict, and describes the requisites of an information management system that should prove of great value in meeting preparedness planning and coordination functions. Chapter 4 explores the effects of a controlled conflict environment on the present structure of civil preparedness in the United States.
