Teemu Nurmela Finnish Army THE SOCIAL BATTLESPACE OF STABILIZATION OPERATIONS – ACTION AMONGST THE PEOPLE Major (GS) Teemu Nurmela Finnish Army Finnish National Defence University Department of Tactics and Operational Art Series 1 No 1/2010 Front cover: A Finnish dismounted patrol handing out leaflets in Kholm, Afghanistan, in the summer of 2009. (Antti Saarelma / Finnish Defence Forces. Used with permission.) © Teemu Nurmela National Defence University, Department of Tactics and Operational Art ISBN 978-951-25-2081-7 ISSN 1238-2744 Edita Prima Oy Helsinki 2010 3 FOREWORD Due to the complexity of conflicts, the human dimension in peacekeeping and stabiliza- tion operations has increased its significance. At the same time understanding of human dimension has not improved at the same rate. The lessons learnt from different missions differ from country to country and from mission to mission. Before this study, very little Finnish or international research exists on the human terrain of a conflict. The purpose of this study is to explore the human dimension of the tactical land operating environment (battlespace) in stabilization operations and thereby interpret the tactical reality of deployed ground troops. This study gives a new perspective and significant information understanding of the actors and situation in operating environment which usually is more than compli- cated. On behalf of department of tactics and operational art, I would like to thank Teemu Nurmela for providing new scientific information to the broad field of military sciences.
