Guidebook for Supporting Economic Development in Stability Operations

Abstract

This guidebook is designed to help tactical and operational level commanders plan for economic issues in their areas of responsibility (AOR). It should help the reader better understand the economic forces at work in countries and regions emerging from conflict, and the activities and tasks that U.S. Army and other military personnel may take on as they provide support to economic and infrastructure development in conflict and post-conflict settings. The document draws heavily on lessons learned in current conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. It seeks to be of immediate assistance to those operating in these theaters. It is also designed, however, to help inform future operations.
