商品簡介
In this study, the Long War--defined here as the US-led fight to defeat transnational terrorism--is analyzed from the perspective of defense diplomacy, looking at stakeholders, outcomes, and the legacy of the Long War and US defense diplomacy. The book begins with a definition and critique of defense diplomacy, then gives an overview of US defense diplomacy and describes how NATO and ASEAN member states incorporate defense diplomacy into national and regional security strategies. The rest of the book examines defense diplomacy in practice. In an extended cases study, US defense diplomacy in Afghanistan is examined over the course of 13 years, 2001-2014, during Operation Enduring Freedom and as part of NATO's International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan.
