Sloan examines the RMA in the context of Canada, Australia, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom in addition to assessing the transformation efforts of the United States Military. She concludes that small and medium military powers such as Canada must, at a minimum, take selected, concrete measures to maximize their military capabilities through the RMA if they are to avoid operational and political marginalisation in the promotion of international peace and security. 410 0$aForeign policy, security, and strategic studies. 606 $aMilitary art and science$xTechnological innovations$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aSecurity, International 606 $aArt et science militaires$xInnovations$xHistoire$y20e siecle 606 $aSecurite internationale 607 $aCanada$xMilitary policy 607 $aCanada$xPolitique militaire 615 0$aMilitary art and science$xTechnological innovations$xHistory 615 0$aSecurity, International. 615 6$aArt et science militaires$xInnovations$xHistoire 615 6$aSecurite internationale. 676 $a355/.0330049 700 $aSloan$b Elinor C$g(Elinor Camille),$f1965-$01105301 712 02$aUniversite du Quebec a Montreal.$bCentre d'etudes des politiques etrangeres et de securite. 712 02$aRaoul-Dandurand Chair of Strategic and Diplomatic Studies. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910658211603321 996 $aThe revolution in military affairs$92644171 997 $aUNINA
