Item description from seller

[4], 122, [4] pages. Contains Introduction, and chapters on Thinking About Asymmetry by Ilan Berman; The Chinese Way of Asymmetric War, by Larry M. Wortzel; Russia's Asymmetric strategy for Contemporary and Future War, by Stephen Blank; The Strategies and Methods of Iranian Asymmetric War, by Ladan Yazdian; The Asymmetric Strategies of the DPRK (North Korea), by Ilan Berman; and a List of Contributors. Also contains endnotes in English and Japanese, a list of contributors (along with short biographies). Ilan I. Berman (born December 23, 1975) is Vice President of the American Foreign Policy Council, a non-profit U.S. foreign policy think tank in Washington, DC. He focuses on regional security in the Middle East, Central Asia, and the Russian Federation. Berman is Adjunct Professor for International Law and Global Security at the National Defense University. The concept of "unrestricted warfare" now being championed by China is not unique. In actuality, the post-Cold War dominance of the United States in global affairs has led many of America's contemporary adversaries to adopt similar strategies in their warfighting, and to prioritize their development of weapons systems or tactics capable of granting them an asymmetric advantage vis-à-vis the United States. Asymmetric warfare, in other words, can be said now to be the "new normal" for those nations seeking to compete with the United States on the world stage. For the United States, asymmetric warfare has emerged as the "new normal." The large-scale conventional campaigns that typified U.S. military engagements for much of the 20th Century are increasingly things of the past. Instead, the quarter-century since the end of the Cold War and the collapse of the U.S.-Soviet balance of power has seen irregular war truly come of age, with more and more hostile nations pursuing asymmetric means in order to secure the strategic advantage vis-a-vis the United States. In this volume, a group of leading national security practitioners and subject matter experts comes together to analyze the asymmetric strategies being pursued today by America's main state-based adversaries--Russia, China, Iran and North Korea--and to explore how U.S. policymakers can respond more effectively to them.…
