The U.S. Army War College: Military Education in a Democracy

Více o knize

The U.S. Army War College, established in 1901, trains elite career officers in advanced strategy and national security policy, focusing on the interplay between military and civilian governance. With a curriculum that emphasizes practical exercises and simulations, the institution aims to prepare officers for complex roles in modern warfare and diplomacy. Judith Stiehm, a notable author and recipient of the U.S. Army Distinguished Civilian Service Medal, critically examines whether the college effectively equips its students to meet contemporary expectations of military performance and accountability.
