How should the US military understand the current geopolitical environment? What are the essential capabilities to succeed therein? Cutting against the grain of contemporary military thought-which focuses overwhelmingly on so-called "near-peer" competitors and the technologies needed to confront them-this book argues for the importance of understanding the playing field of strategic competition. Bringing together the collective experience and expertise of nineteen soldiers, marines, and scholar-practitioners, this book draws upon the lessons of recent past to chart a contrarian view for the future.
The book begins with a survey of the current geopolitical landscape, observing the global resonance of ostensibly local issues within a fragmenting international order. It then explores the features of the "gray zone" between peace and war, highlighting the importance of ground truth and focused contextual understanding. Discussions in the book address doctrinal shortcomings with respect to the concept of the "human domain" and the consequences thereof vis-à-vis the military's understanding of influence and non-kinetic operations. Focus then shifts to the warrior diplomats themselves, examining how Civil Affairs forces approach the critical discipline of civil reconnaissance-alongside a detailed examination of the inadequacy of current investigative frameworks and the presentation of a potential alternative. A case study is then presented, detailing the work of warrior diplomats in the Sahel, followed by discussion of pressing issues and ongoing changes within the US Army's and US Marine Corps' Civil Affairs capabilities. Finally, the book examines complementarities between US Civil Affairs and the Civil-Military Cooperation (CIMIC) forces fielded by allies worldwide as well as the potential for further collaboration and interoperability.
With a formidable blend of real-world experience and academic rigor, this book illuminates the importance of the warrior diplomat within the US military-and the need to invest in and strengthen capabilities in the human domain. Observing the limitations of technology in the provision of causal understanding, this book puts humans front and center in the military's approach to understanding and action in the human domain.
Warrior Diplomats is a valuable resource for military personnel, leaders across the defense and intelligence communities, and strategists who plan military operations and campaigns. It also will be useful to academic researchers, students, and general readers interested in strategy, foreign policy, applied social science, and the US military.

Droit de rétractation
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
