Each is a thought leader in his or her field. Four out of six authors are seasoned military professionals who share the view that the over-reliance on kinetic approaches over influence operations account for some of the failures of nations against extremists. Combined with civilian academic leadership this book is a practice in military civics. This collection of international perspectives, taken together, challenge commonly held assumptions and outmoded paradigms of engagement." --Back cover.Conflict managementUnited StatesConflict management371.5Maan AjitCheema AmarMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910798866603321Soft power on hard problems3738395UNINA
