  • The Notion of Military Administration
    ROCZNIK BEZPIECZEŃSTWA MORSKIEGO ROK XIII – 2019 Ryszard Szynowski Akademia WSB THE NOTION OF MILITA R Y ADMINISTRATION ABSTRACT The following article refers to the notion of military administration. The cognitive procedure was focused around the definition of “military administra- tion”, and research was focused on recognizing the elementary facts that are related to this notion. The aim of the article is to present and organize the most important methodological approaches that refer to the notion of “military administration”. To achieve this goal, the method of document examination was employed, which made it possible to accumulate, sort, describe and scientifically interpret the issues of military administration. By pinpointing and justifying the problem, a stance was taken in the face of the views of other authors, who considered all the aspects of “military administration”. From a scientific point of view, the topic described below and the attempt at defining the notion of “military ad- ministration” can lead to conclusions which have not been a topic of discussion for many years. Key words: military administration, government administration, National De- fence Minister, National Defence Ministry. INTRODUCTION The Armed Forces of the Republic of Poland [Siły Zbrojne Rzeczypo- spolitej Polskiej (SZ RP)] are obliged to prevent and counteract external threats. Because of the human resource, a proven directorial structure, equip- ment and training, the Armed Forces of the Republic of Poland are also trained to support the counteracting, fighting and removing the aftermath of existing crisis situations. For operational efficiency in times of peace, crisis and war, the 1 Ryszard Szynowski existence of military administration is crucial, as well as its co-operation with other public administration organs.

  • The Development of United States Army Military Government Doctrine in the World Wars
    WAR BY OTHER MEANS – THE DEVELOPMENT OF UNITED STATES ARMY MILITARY GOVERNMENT DOCTRINE IN THE WORLD WARS David C. Musick, B.A. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2011 APPROVED: Robert Citino, Major Professor Richard B. McCaslin, Committee Member and Chair of the Department of History Michael V. Leggiere, Committee Member Geoffrey Wawro, Committee Member James D. Meernik, Acting Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Musick, David C. War by Other Means – the Development of United States Army Military Government Doctrine in the World Wars. Master of Arts (History), May 2011, 131 pp., 1 chart, 3 maps, references, 83 titles. Occupation operations are some of the most resource and planning intensive military undertakings in modern combat. The United States Army has a long tradition of conducting military government operations, stretching back to the Revolutionary War. Yet the emergence of military government operational doctrine was a relatively new development for the United States Army. During the World Wars, the Army reluctantly embraced civil administration responsibilities as a pragmatic reaction to the realities of total war. In the face of opposition from the Roosevelt administration, the United States Army established an enduring doctrine for military government in the crucible of the European Theater of Operations. Copyright 2011 by David C. Musick ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would be remiss if I did not gratefully acknowledge the help and direction of those without whom I could never have carried out this effort: My wife, Vivien, who has endured 17 years of Army life and 2 years of Graduate School, it is unclear which was harder on her.

Utvecklingen har drivits på av ett ökat internationellt engagemang och förändringen från ett nationellt till internationellt fokus har lett till att nya krav ställts på Försvarets försörjningskedja och inte minst anskaffnings processen att bli effektivare.

  • The Concepts and Design of Roc Defense Reorganization
    I&S THE CONCEPTS AND DESIGN OF ROC DEFENSE REORGANIZATION Ching-Pu CHEN Abstract: The defense organization of the Republic of China (ROC) Taiwan has undergone a dramatic transformation in recent years since the acceptance of the National Defense Act and the Ministry of National Defense Organizational Act in the year 2000. The new defense organization is believed to enhance strategic plan- ning, resource allocation, joint operation, and civilian control. This article describes the concepts and structure design behind the two Acts mentioned above. It also pre- sents the defense planning systems for force building. Keywords: Defense reorganization, defense management, organizational design, strategic planning, resource allocation, joint operation. The acceptance of the National Defense Act and the Ministry of National Defense Organizational Act (hereafter referred as “the Two Defense Acts”) in 2000 have marked a milestone in the Republic of China’s (ROC) military reform. As the Revo- lution of Military Affairs (RMA) emphasizes the joint synergy of operational concept, organizational structure and technology, the Two Defense Acts bring in new organ- izational concepts and structures that lay the foundation for ROC’s military estab- lishment in the 21st century. Conceptually, an organizational design involves two parts: hardware and software. The hardware sets the framework, infrastructure and backbone of an organization’s machine and the software makes the machine run. The hardware side of the organiza- tional design includes the organizational structure, distribution of authority and re- sponsibility, control mechanisms, etc.; while the software involves the operational system, process, procedure, culture, people and leadership, etc. In addition, any organizational design has to reflect the strategy and concept for its competitiveness.

  • Was There a Military Revolution in Lancastrian Normandy 1415–50?1
    8 Guns and Goddams: was there a Military Revolution in Lancastrian Normandy 1415–50?1 Anne Curry Historians like labels and categories. In part this has been driven by the needs of pedagogy. It cannot be a coincidence that an early use of the term “La Guerre de Cent Ans” was in Chrysanthe-Ovide Desmichels’ Tableau Chronologique de l’Histoire du Moyen Age published in 1823. This work was symptomatic of the expansion of schooling in early nineteenth-century France in which competitive examinations stimulated publication of aides-mémoire.2 Other nations followed suit. Even in the 1970s teachers in Britain were still using William Edwards’ Notes on British History and Notes on European History, cribs published almost a century earlier, which crammed the heads of unsuspecting students with “the so-and-so system,” “the age of whatsit,” and “the thingummy ‘revolution’ ” so that it could all be spewed out again in the examination room. Such labels and categories can be valuable communication tools. They also give shape to our research and facilitate comparison and debate. But they can operate as straightjackets and encourage tunnel vision.
