ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Comprehensive Approach to Operations: International Perspectives is the eighth publication by the International Military Leadership Association. The dedication of this group to furthering the understanding of issues affecting military leadership is commendable. The editors would especially like to thank Cedric de Coning of the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs (Norsk Utenrikspolitisk Institutt) for contributing a chapter to this volume. Dr. de Coning contributed his chapter on short notice in response to a “cold call” email request from the editors. The contributors to this volume should be justifiably proud of achieving a high standard under very tight time con- straints. This volume is an important addition to a more thorough under- standing of the meaning of the comprehensive approach. It is important to recognize the ongoing support of the Canadian Defence Academy and the Canadian Defence Academy Press for this series of pub- lications. In particular, our gratitude and thanks go to Mélanie Denis of the Canadian Defence Academy for her expertise and willingness to work un- der the time constraints that are required to meet the International Military Leadership Association schedule. We also express our gratitude to the 17 Wing Publishing Office in Winnipeg, Manitoba, for consistently producing a high-quality, professional product.

Established in 2005, IMLA has provided a forum for military leadership researchers, academics and members of military leadership insti- tutes to collaborate on a wide variety of military leadership projects. The Aca- demic Council on the United Nations System (ACUNS) has recently given a positive review of a previous IMLA publication, Military Ethics: International Perspectives and has another volume under review. This is clearly testament to our successes in moving forward international literature. The publication of this volume is timely. While there is much individual ex- pertise in the comprehensive approach to operations, it has not been for- mally institutionalized as a standard operational procedure. Future military operations will continue to be mandated by international authorities and will likely be multinational endeavours. Any large scale operation is sure to be augmented by non-military aims to reflect nation building and development aspects (i.e., the 3 Ds: defence, diplomacy and development). Future conflict will also likely involve a variety of non-governmental organizations in the operational environment, amidst a country with civil institutions of varying levels of effectiveness and in a vastly different cultural sphere. These are all conditions that require leaders to possess the skills and competencies neces- sary to operate effectively in the future security environment. I commend the efforts of the authors, editors and members of CDA Press in the production of this volume. IMLA continues to demonstrate its relevance to the furthering the understanding of the many facets of military leadership. Your comments are, as always, welcomed. P.J. Forgues Major-General Commander Canadian Defence Academy THE COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH TO OPERATIONS: INTERNATIONAL PERSPECTIVES | iii CHAPTER 1 CHAPTER 1 CIVIL-MilitarY Relations AND THE COMPREHENSIVE Approach to Operations Bill Bentley, PhD* INTRODUCTION The Comprehensive Approach to security operations was developed over time to deal with the complex, multi-dimensional conflicts of the 1990s and early 21st century. These were the “new” wars so well described by Mary Kaldor in New and Old Wars: Organized Violence in a Global Era.1 It is a fairly significant change in both grand strategy and, therefore, military strategy, from the paradigm extant during the Cold War. To fully understand how this new approach evolved, the role of civil-military relations in liberal democracies must be taken into account. This chapter will introduce the concept of civil- military relations in both their theoretical and practical aspects and situate the emergence of the Comprehensive Approach within this governance issue. Civil-military relations describe the relationship between civil society as a whole and the military organization established to protect it. Thus, the civil- military relationship involves the interaction among three main actors – the people, the government and the military. If there is a general concordance among these three actors, civil-military relations can be described as healthy or relatively tension free; if not, the relationship will be strained, sometimes to the point of crisis.2 More narrowly, civil-military relations describe the relationship between the civil authority of a given society/nation and its military authority. In this case, the civil authority is to be understood as the elected government responsible to the people and to which the military is subordinated, as well as appointed civilian officials with whom the military

  • Lecture a the Meaning of Mercy in Military Life by General Peter Van
    The meaning of mercy in military life by General (ret) Peter van Uhm, former Chief of Defence Staff in the Netherlands Summary: Chaplain Frank Steijger President Norbert Sinn gave us first a short introduction on the career of the General. General Van Uhm made apologies in advance for the behavior of Nolan the Assist-dog who is in training with the family of General Van Uhm. When talking about mercy there is an easy road, and there is a personal one. The first speaks about the conventions of Geneva. We can discuss the theory and finally we know each other’s opinions. The personal route follows the road of practice of every man and of every soldier. It is the route we take by our moral compass. A compass is calibrated by knowing yourself, by values and ethics, and where you belief in. And that is not always religious. The moral compass is the gut feeling, the split-second decision between right and wrong. If your moral compass is good, your decision is good. An example: as a young Lieutenant I was on a 3-day patrol with a clear order: hide through the day, walk in the night and no contact with anyone. In the middle of the night a tractor with a large trailer passed by and the man on the tractor invited us to put everything on the trailer because we where going in the same direction. The men would have loved me if I had agreed because of the sour feet and the easy way of fulfilling our duty.

  • The Indonesian Struggle for Independence 1945 – 1949
    The Indonesian struggle for Independence 1945 – 1949 Excessive violence examined University of Amsterdam Bastiaan van den Akker Student number: 11305061 MA Holocaust and Genocide Studies Date: 28-01-2021 Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Ugur Ümit Üngör Second Reader: Dr. Hinke Piersma Abstract The pursuit of a free Indonesian state was already present during Dutch rule. The Japanese occupation and subsequent years ensured that this pursuit could become a reality. This thesis examines the last 4 years of the Indonesian struggle for independence between 1945 and 1949. Excessive violence prevailed during these years, both the Indonesians and the Dutch refused to relinquish hegemony on the archipelago resulting in around 160,000 casualties. The Dutch tried to forget the war of Indonesian Independence in the following years. However, whistleblowers went public in the 1960’s, resulting in further examination into the excessive violence. Eventually, the Netherlands seems to have come to terms with its own past since the first formal apologies by a Dutch representative have been made in 2005. King Willem-Alexander made a formal apology on behalf of the Crown in 2020. However, high- school education is still lacking in educating students on these sensitive topics. This thesis also discusses the postwar years and the public debate on excessive violence committed by both sides. The goal of this thesis is to inform the public of the excessive violence committed by Dutch and Indonesian soldiers during the Indonesian struggle for Independence. 1 Index Introduction

  • Exit Suharto: Obituary for a Mediocre Tyrant
    benedict anderson EXIT SUHARTO Obituary for a Mediocre Tyrant n 1971, the indonesian presidential machine informed the public that Suharto and his wife were planning a mauso- leum for themselves on a spur of Mount Lawu, the dormant, 3,000m sacred volcano that lies to the east of the ci-devant royal IJavanese city of Surakarta.1 The site had been carefully chosen, respect- fully situated some metres below the early tombs of the Mangkunegaran dynasty—the second most insignificant of the four small Central Java principalities instituted by colonial authority in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Mrs Tien Suharto—by then already quietly mocked as Tientje (Ten Per Cent)—claimed some connection with the little dynasty which had barely survived the revolution of 1945–49. For Suharto, who always insisted that he was of simple peasant stock, but was rumoured to be the illegitimate son of a Chinese tycoon, the site represented a social step up; and a normal one, since hypergamy was common among the army officer corps in the 1940s and after, and families were traditionally uxorilocal. Still, the construction of this expensive, unprecedented mau- soleum for the future dead had something creepy about it, since Suharto himself was a healthy 50-year-old at the time. I visited Surakarta in the spring of 1972, after the Suharto government had discovered that I had entered the country by roundabout methods and had informed me that I would be deported. After some negotiations, I was allowed two weeks to wind up my affairs and say farewell to friends.

In this paper, the term "Indonesian coup" is used inter- changeably with "The 30 September Movement ," mainly for the sake of variety. It is technically correct to refer to the events in lndonesia as a "coup" in the literal sense of the word, meaning "a sudden, forceful stroke in politics." To the extent that the word has been accepted in common usage to mean "the sudden and forcible overthrow - of the government ," however, it may be misleading.

  • Achieving Safety and Security in an Age of Disruption and Distrust
    Achieving safety and security in an age of disruption and distrust Why collaboration between the public and private sectors is a prerequisite for a safe, secure and prosperous society Executive summary pwc.com/safe-society 2 | PwC Achieving safety and security in an age of disruption and distrust Foreword Peter van Uhm Former Chief of Defence of the Armed Forces of the Netherlands In my career spanning more than 35 years working in defence, it has become increasingly clear that delivering the safety and security that citizens and businesses need to prosper requires ever closer collaborations across borders, sectors and institutions. I learnt that rebuilding a failed state means realising that everything in a nation is interlinked and that it is all about the hearts and minds of the people. If you want the people to have trust in their society and faith in their future, safety and security in the broadest terms are the prerequisite. To reach this prerequisite, all segments of society are important. So you need an integral, systematic approach if you want to be effective. But would this apply only for failed states, or is it also applicable to our home countries? In my opinion, such an approach is essential for every society. The real question is how to realise it. 3 | PwC Achieving safety and security in an age of disruption and distrust Executive summary Citizens and businesses want to feel safe — protected Yet today, security is being challenged in many Safety and security from danger, risk or injury.1 The notion of security — dimensions, including physical, digital and economic.

  • The Silences and Myths of a 'Dirty War
    Published in The European Review of History, 2007, 14 (2), 235-262 The silences and myths of a ‘dirty war’; Coming to terms with the Dutch-Indonesian decolonization war (1945– 1949)1 Stef Scagliola - Erasmus University Rotterdam Listening to discussions about the current ‘wars on terror’ that are being fought in Afghanistan and Iraq, we can hear echoes from the era of our painful European decolonization wars. In the United States too, the legacy of the lost war in Vietnam is recurrent in the discourse of opponents of today’s ‘war on terror’. 2 Just as in the past, the moral legitimacy of a military intervention that is supposed to bring ‘peace and order’ to a country, is today a hotly debated issue. In France and the Netherlands, especially, the memories of the wars that were fought against their former colonies have resulted in an understandable distrust of the words ‘peace and order’.3 Many elderly men and their families know all too well that they are a euphemism for a nerve-racking war which, when compared to conventional wars, has been difficult to represent and remember in a public and coherent way. Another feature familiar from the decolonialization wars is the disagreement between those who believe that military force is the only way to stabilize a country in turmoil and others who see military intervention merely as an aggravation of political unrest. The analogy even relates to the disparity between the warring parties: on the one side the combination of Western imperialism, questionable noble intentions and military might, on the other side an alliance of rebellious parties in a non-Western setting, who, being militarily weak but large in numbers, resort to unconventional warfare.

  • Notes Presentation Secretary General 2017
    Notes Presentation Secretary General 2017 Dia 2 Excellencies, generals, vice-admiral, ladies and gentlemen, dear Friends of AMI, Of course, as AMI Secretary General I am very that you join us here in Rome, Birthplace of western civilization. Rome is one of the world’s most recognizable and remarkable cities in this world. Home to the Roman Republic that became one, if not, the most famous empires in the history of mankind, this city was at the center of Western civilization for over a millennium. Currently Rome is amongst the most visited cities in the world. Located within the city of Rome is Vatican City, established in 1929 as a separate state and the smallest independent state in the world. The Bishop of Rome – also the Pope – rules Vatican City where the highest functionaries of the expansive Catholic Church conduct their governing and business. The Papacy has been located on these grounds since leaving Avignon in 1377. As you already know I always choose a lot of pictures of all my experiences of last year, to show the General Assembly what has happened since our last gathering in Vught, The Netherlands in September last year. Our President already told a few of our common activities, so I cannot avoid that you hear some topics twice this afternoon. I would like to show you now an overview of last year’s activities of your secretary general. 1 Dia 3 Last year the AMI General Assembly and Annual Conference took place in Vught / The Netherlands from 18th to 23rd September 2016. The conference participants were accommodated in the idyllic Landgoed Huize Bergen in Vught, where also as official start of the conference, the opening Holy Mass was conducted.
