Conclusion --$tBIBLIOGRAPHY --$tINDEX 330 $aThe authors of Culture, Conflict and Counterinsurgency contend that an enduring victory can still be achieved in Afghanistan. However, to secure it we must better understand the cultural foundations of the continuing conflicts that rage across Afghanistan and neighboring Pakistan, and shift our strategy from an attritional engagement to a smarter war plan that embraces these cultural dimensions. They examine the nexus of culture, conflict, and strategic intervention, and attempt to establish if culture is important in a national security and foreign policy context, and to explore how cultural phenomena and information can best be used by the military. In the process they address just how intimate cultural knowledge needs to be to counter an insurgency effectively. Finally, they establish exactly how good we've been at building and utilizing cultural understanding in Afghanistan, what the operational impact of that understanding has been, and where we must improve to maximize our use of cultural knowledge in preparing for and engaging in future conflicts. 606 $aAfghan War, 2001-2021$xSocial aspects 606 $aCounterinsurgency$zAfghanistan 606 $aMilitary intelligence$zAfghanistan 606 $aCounterinsurgency 606 $aMilitary intelligence 606 $aCulture 607 $aAfghanistan$xSocial life and customs 615 0$aAfghan War, 2001-2021$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aCounterinsurgency 615 0$aMilitary intelligence 615 0$aCounterinsurgency. 615 0$aMilitary intelligence. 615 0$aCulture. 676 $a958.104/71 701 $aJohnson$b Thomas H$0115454 701 $aZellen$b Barry Scott$f1963-$0802032 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910810136403321 996 $aCulture, conflict, and counterinsurgency$93967693 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02933nam 2200769z- 450 001 9910557606003321 005 20220111 035 $a(CKB)5400000000045343 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/76463 035 $a(oapen)doab76463 035 $a(EXLCZ)995400000000045343 100 $a20202201d2021 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aControl and Automation 210 $aBasel, Switzerland$cMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute$d2021 215 $a1 online resource (111 p.) 311 08$a3-0365-1408-2 311 08$a3-0365-1407-4 330 $aA wide range of ongoing research in the areas of controller design and information engineering reveals that the pace of technological change in this domain seems to be accelerating. The primary focus is on futuristic segments ranging from robotics, genomics to chemical feedstock and electrical storage.
