Perspectives on the American Way of War examines salient cases of
American experience in irregular warfare, focusing upon the
post-World War II era. This book asks why recent misfires have
emerged in irregular warfare from an institutional, professional,
and academic context which regularly produces evidence that there
is in fact no lack of understanding of both irregular challenges
and correct responses. Expert contributors explore the reasoning
behind the inability to achieve victory, however defined, and argue
that what security professionals have failed to fully recognize,
even today, is that what is at issue is not warfare suffused with
politics but rather the very opposite, politics suffused with
warfare. Perspectives on the American Way of War will be of great
interest to scholars of war and conflict studies, strategic and
military studies, insurgency and counterinsurgency, and terrorism
and counterterrorism. The book was originally published as a
special issue of Small Wars & Insurgencies.
