This textbook offers an accessible introduction to counterinsurgency operations, a key aspect of modern warfare. Featuring essays by some of the world's leading experts on unconventional conflict, both scholars and practitioners, the book discusses how modern regular armed forces react, and should react, to irregular warfare. The volume is divided into three main sections:
Understanding Counterinsurgency is the first comprehensive textbook on counterinsurgency, and will be essential reading for all students of small wars, counterinsurgency and counterterrorism, strategic studies and security studies, both in graduate and undergraduate courses as well as in professional military schools.
This volume examines the Middle East's leading armed forces and
their role in both military and political affairs. It considers
their missions, doctrine, training, equipment and effectiveness as
fighting forces. At the same time, the various expert contributors
discuss the relations between the armed forces and their respective
governments, with the issues raised ranging from internal
repression to budgetary matters. On some issues, high-ranking
officers force Arab regimes to meet their demands. In other ways,
regimes impose restrictions on the armies in order to maintian
their own political control. These mechanisms also reduce the
soldiers' military quality, and hence their ability to wage
war.
