DKI APCSS’ Captain Joshua Taylor has a new article entitled “Citizen Sailors: The Missing Link in Maritime Force Structure” published by War on the Rocks. Co-authored with Col. Scott C. Humphrey, their article highlights a pressing challenge for the U.S. Navy—the growing gap between its force structure needs and available personnel. According to the authors, despite the Navy's focus on unmanned technology and projections indicating a need for 3,000 to 10,000 additional personnel in the next 30 years, the current recruiting efforts are falling short.

The proposed strategy defines Political Warfare as a non-violent means to achieve national objectives. In contrast, Irregular Warfare is the military component focused on influencing populations and affecting legitimacy. Lumbaca outlines four strategic focus areas: Shaping the environment: Initiatives include countering adversarial propaganda, developing military capacities, and building information operations. Denying sanctuary: [...]

Inouye Asia Pacific Center for Security Studies, discussed the unexpected upgrade in U.S.-Vietnam relations.

The comprehensive strategic partnership benefits both nations. It signals equal footing for the U.S. with Vietnam’s long-time friends, China and Russia, and signifies Vietnam’s [...]

“Vietnam needs more than an upgraded U.S. partnership” is a new OpEd written by Dr. Alexander Vuving for Nikkei Asia. In this opinion piece, Vuving looks at the history of Vietnam’s role in strategic partnerships. “Hanoi's web of strategic partnerships worked well in the post-Cold War era because of the geopolitical distance then between major powers. This no longer applies in the current situation of heightened strategic rivalries,” according to Vuving. “Hanoi needs a new safety net that suits the changed conditions of the present time.” Read the full article Alexander L. Vuving is a professor at the Daniel [...]
