World View: The 1994 Strategic Assessment from the Strategic Studies Institute.

Abstract

The Strategic Studies Institute prepares annual strategic assessments which form the basis of its study program. These assessments seem especially crucial this year as the strategic situation throughout the world is far more complex and fraught with danger than many realize. The dramatically altered world of the post-cold war period is not the peaceful and tranquil scene many longed for and thought had arrived. In this dynamic international setting, the technical revolution is propelling many nations from the industrial age into the information age. The implications for military force structures and strategies are as enormous as they are uncertain. This monograph provides a world view and lists eight major determinants which in 1994 will dominantly influence U.S. interests, national military strategy and the Army's posture. World view, Technological revolution, Global trends, Strategic assessments, U.S. Interests, Information age
