Stabilization and Reconstruction Staffing

The United States participated in several interventions and state-building efforts during the 1990s, and the rationale for U.S. engagement in such efforts received a new urgency after the 9/11 attacks. However, recent U.S. experiences in Afghanistan and in Iraq, especially, have shown that engaging in stability and reconstruction operations is a difficult and lengthy process that requires appropriate resources. Most of all, to have a chance of succeeding, such operations require a realistic understanding of the capabilities needed for them.Kelly, Terrence K. is the author of 'Stabilization and Reconstruction Staffing', published 2008 under ISBN 9780833041371 and ISBN 0833041371.
