Confronting insurgent violence in Iraq and Afghanistan, the US military has recognized the need to "re-learn" counterinsurgency. But how has the Department of Defense with its mixed efforts responded to this new strategic environment? This title examines DoD's institutional obstacles and initially slow response to a changing strategic reality.
