NPS Initiatives in Human Social Culture Behavior (HSCB) Modeling FY 2010-2011

Abstract

This charts discuss irregular warfare, what is it and what are the modeling challenges? Irregular warfare is a violent struggle among state and non-state actors for legitimacy and influence over the relevant populations. Irregular warfare favors indirect and asymmetric approaches, though it may employ the full range of military and other capabilities, in order to erode an adversary's power, influence, and will. Also called IW.
