Rome's German Frontier: Peace Enforcement Precursor or Paradigm?

Abstract

This monograph addresses whether current peace enforcement doctrine (the threat or use of force to compel compliance, in order to maintain or restore peace and support political settlement) is inclusive of historical (ancient) principles. By comparing the Roman frontier experience to contemporary peace enforcement doctrine, the research attempts to identify principles contemporary planners may find useful and which may increase our understanding of the nature of peace enforcement operations.
