Preface When my generation were youngsters, “the war” was the Great War, now known as World War I. On Memorial Day we bought artificial flowers in remembrance of the veterans lying in European cemeteries “where poppies grow between the crosses, row on row.” On Armistice Day, November 11, we went to our local cemeteries to honor departed neighbors, especially those whose bodies were re-interred from France. At the movies, rarely air-conditioned, for a ten cent admission we watched Lew Ayres in All Quiet on the Western Front, or Errol Flynn in Dawn Patrol, plus the latest Buck Rogers serial.

Marković Editor-in-Chief Dragana Marković Editor Slavica Djerić-Magazinović 2 R E P U B L I C O F S E R B I A MINISTRY OF DEFENCE DEFENCE POLICY SECTOR Strategic Planning Department WHITE PAPER ON DEFENCE OF THE REPUBLIC OF SERBIA Belgrade, 2010. 3 Defence is one of the most important functions of each state, because all other spheres of human activity aimed at cre- ating basic preconditions for the overall development and prosperity overlap there. The Republic of Serbia, being an independent state since 2006, builds up its defence system tailored to meet its needs in the conditions characterizing the totality of relationships at the global, regional and local level. Year 2010 is a milestone in the reform of defence system, which is demonstrated through adoption of strate- gic-doctrinal and legal-normative documents, in the long and medium term planning and programming of the defence system development, professionalization of the Serbian Armed Forces, the reform of the military education and military health care system, systematization and rationalization of the Ministry of Defence, re- vitalization of the defence industry and encouragement of partic- ipation of the Armed Forces and other defence forces members in building and maintaining peace in the world and the region. White Paper on Defence is developed for the first time in the Re- public of Serbia as an independent state. This is a document which transparently presents to the wide domestic and international pub- lic the processes, achievements and projections regarding the de- velopment of the defence system of the Republic of Serbia.

  • Swarming and the Future of Conflict
    SWARMING &The Future of Conflict A New Way of War Swarming is a seemingly amorphous, but deliberately structured, coordinated, strategic way to perform military strikes from all directions. It employs a sustainable pulsing of force and/or fire that is directed from both close-in and stand-off positions. It will work best—perhaps it will only work—if it is designed mainly around the deployment of myriad, small, dispersed, networked maneuver units. This calls for an organizational redesign—involving the creation of platoon-like “pods” joined in company-like “clusters”—that would keep but retool the most basic military unit structures. It is similar to the corporate redesign principle of “flattening,” which often removes or redesigns middle layers of management. This has proven successful in the ongoing revolution in business affairs and may prove equally useful in the military realm. From command and control of line units to logistics, profound shifts will have to occur to nurture this new “way of war.” This study examines the benefits—and also the costs and risks— Arquilla David Ronfeldt John of engaging in such serious doctrinal change. The emergence of a military doctrine based on swarming pods and clusters requires that defense policymakers develop new approaches to connectivity and control and achieve a new balance between the two. Far more than traditional approaches to battle, swarming clearly depends upon robust information flows. Securing these flows, therefore, can be seen as a necessary condition for successful swarming.

IN this outline of publications discussing the submarine, an attempt is made to present the general status of current knowledge on the subject rather than give detail. At the same time such exact data are included as might be required by the person who, approaching the problem as a stranger, may wish to get an idea of the magnitudes involved. More exhaustive inquiry will always demand consultation of the original publications, to which this paper may, in that case, serve as an index. No material is given here that is not quoted directly from the references under consideration. Where ambiguity has existed, the form of expression also has been followed rather than risk further error by imposing the interpretation of the compiler. Many short notes and general papers have been omitted from notice when it has seemed that they would not add value to the collection. Also, none of the many articles appearing in the Scientific American have been quoted. This last is for the reason that such articles generally contain exactly the same data that are found in the technical papers, and in an already abstracted form. Where 25I 252 HELEN R. HOSMER. [J. F.
