The political practice of declaring victory and coming home has
provided a false and dangerous domestic impression of great success
for U.S. unilateral and multilateral interventions in failing and
failed states around the world. The reality of such
irresponsibility is that the root causes and the violent
consequences of contemporary "intranational" conflict are left to
smolder and reignite at a later date with the accompanying human
and physical waste. This book discusses why it is incumbent on the
international community and individual powers involved in dealing
with the chaos of the post-Cold War world to understand that such
action requires a long-term, holistic, and strategic approach.
The intent of such an approach is to create and establish the
proven internal conditions that can lead to a mandated peace and
stability--with justice. The key elements that define those
conditions at the strategic level include: (1) the physical
establishment of order and the rule of law; (2) the isolation of
belligerents; (3) the regeneration of the economy; (4) the shaping
of political consent; (5) fostering peaceful conflict resolution
processes; (6) achieving a complete unity of effort toward
stability; and (7) establishment and maintenance of a legitimate
civil society. These essential dimensions of contemporary global
security and stability requirements comprise a new paradigm that
will, hopefully, initiate the process of rethinking both problem
and response.
