The authors examine the utility of the U.S. Government's
whole-of-government (WoG) approach for responding to the
challenging security demands of operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
They specifically discuss the strategic objectives of interagency
cooperation particularly in the areas of peacebuilding and conflict
management. Discussions range from the conceptual to the practical,
with a focus on the challenges and desirability of interagency
cooperation in international interventions. The book shares
experiences and expertise on the need for and the future of an
American grand strategy in an era characterized by increasingly
complex security challenges and shrinking budgets. All authors
agree that taking the status quo for granted is a major obstacle to
developing a successful grand strategy and that government,
military, international and nongovernmental organizations, and the
private sector are all called upon to contribute their best talents
and efforts to joint global peace and security activities. Included
are viewpoints from academia, the military, government agencies,
nongovernmental organizations, and industry. Despite the broad
range of viewpoints, a number of overarching themes and tentative
agreements emerged.
