This concise guide offers a comprehensive overview of the diverse range of future military operations that are likely to become significant issues in American politics. Author Sebastian Gorka aims to assist readers in making informed decisions about supporting or opposing future military actions. The public debate in America on potential military actions is often ill-informed or lacks a clear understanding of the limits and possibilities of using force. Often, the choices are limited to either blind militarism or blind pacifism, with little consideration given to the specific circumstances at hand.
After reading this book, readers will gain a deeper understanding of:
The evolution of conflict in the post-Cold War and post-9/11 world
The limitations of traditional conceptualizations of Big War and the need to adapt capabilities to the modern threat environment
The implications of new methods of attack, such as cyber warfare, for the security of America and its citizens
The costs associated with wars and the appropriate level of investment in national defense and national security
The potential locations and scenarios for future military conflicts.
By providing a clear and accessible perspective on these critical topics, this guide aims to empower readers with the knowledge they need to engage in informed discussions and make informed decisions about the future of military operations in America.
