Civil-Military Cooperation (CIMIC) is the relationship between
militaries and humanitarians. Largely conducted in post-conflict
environments, CIMIC has become a key characteristic of military
operations in the twenty-first century. However, the field is
mostly understood through stereotype rather than clear,
comprehensive analysis. The range and scope of activities which
fall under the wider rubric of CIMIC is huge, as are the number of
differing approaches, across situations and national armed
forces.
This book demonstrates the wide variety of national approaches
to CIMIC activities, introducing some theoretical and ethical
considerations into a field that has largely been bereft of this
type of debate. Containing several case studies of recent CIMIC (in
the Balkans, Afghanistan, and Iraq) along with theoretical
analyses, it will assist scholars, practitioners, and
decision-makers become more aware of the 'state of the art' in this
field.
Civil-Military Cooperation in Post-Conflict Operations will be
of much interest to all students of military studies, humanitarian
operations, peace operations and security studies in general.
