In this volume, prominent civilian and military experts in defense,
representing the maritime-continental coalition, military reform,
and noninterventionist schools of thought, outline the changes in
military strategy, policy, and force structure that they believe
the United States must adopt if it is to cope successfully with
threats to national security in the 1980s and 1990s. The authors
analyze US interests and objectives, the changing strategic
environment, and the major security threats facing the United
States in the coming decades. They also discuss what they believe
is the proper mix of political, economic, and military instruments
for dealing with fixture threats. The alternative strategies they
present are wide-ranging and comprehensive, running the gamut from
a strategic withdrawal from global commitments to proposals for
increasing US power projection and forcible entry capabilities in
the Third World. In many ways the chapters are critical of current
and past approaches to military strategy. The authors believe it is
essential that strategists understand the existing critiques of
current U.S. military strategy in order to make the correct policy
decisions for the future.
