The British 'hearts and minds' approach to counterinsurgency was
credited with rare successes against insurgencies in Malaya
(1948-60), Northern Ireland (1969-2007) and its widely admired
approach to peacekeeping in the nineties. More recently, the
British influenced the development of US counterinsurgency thinking
on Iraq just as the British Army was perceived to be failing in
Southern Iraq. Despite their attempt, the British military failed
to restore their reputation by involvement in the 'good war' in
Afghanistan. This timely and critical volume questions the
effectiveness of Britain's 'hearts and minds' approach and
challenges conventional counterinsurgency thinking by drawing on
the expertise of regional and thematic specialists.
