Fratricide has been defined as firing on your own forces, when
mistaking them for enemy forces, which results in injury or death.
Rates of fratricide incidence have been steadily increasing and the
complexity of the contemporary operating environment may lead to a
continuation of this trend. Although the majority of research into
fratricide has focused on the development of technological decision
aids, recent explorations highlight the need to emphasise the
social aspects within a socio-technical framework. This book
presents and validates, via the use of case studies, a model of
teamwork and decision-making factors that are associated with
incidents of fratricide. In summary, it offers a review and
evaluation of contemporary theoretical perspectives on teamwork and
fratricide, as well as a range of accident analysis approaches. A
novel theory of fratricide is then presented followed by a new
methodology for assessing fratricide. Naturalistic case studies of
teams are undertaken in the military domain. These studies
illustrate the approach and offer early validation evidence. In
closing, the book presents a series of principles designed to
reduce the likelihood of fratricide in the future.
