Winning the Peace: The Strategic Implications of Military Civic Action

Abstract

Whatever the eventual outcome of the changing strategic situation in Europe, it is certain that the structure of the U.S. military will change. The challenge facing military leadership during the 1990s is to ensure that the changes are based on sound planning reflecting a clearly-articulated national strategy. The authors of this book contribute to this planning by review the utility of military civic action in achieving U.S. strategic objectives. The editors have selected the papers presented herein so that the reader can examine military civic action from many vantage points. Authors look at both past and the future. Some are highly critical and others are enthusiastic. Some of the positions seem to be politically conservative and others liberal. In short, the editors have attempted to set the framework for a debate of the strategic importance of military civic action in the 1990s.
