In the late 1960s, the Swedish Defence Staff initiated the development of a computerized command and control system that was later to be known as the LEO-system.

  • Surfing the Waves: Scottish Admirals in Russia in Their Baltic Context
    Suring the Waves: Scottish Admirals in Russia in their Baltic Context Steve Murdoch It has long been established, and frequently reafirmed, that the origins of the Russian navy and her distinctive Saltire insignia can be traced back to the inal years of General Patrick Gordon in his guise as Rear Admiral of the Russian navy.1 There is no doubt that after Gordon’s participation in Russia’s irst tentative naval manoeuvres off of Archangel in 1694, and the irst real amphibious operation against Azov in 1696 (in which Gordon had reverted to a land role), the Romanov dynasty attracted a notable presence of Scottish naval oficers to their cause.2 This reached something of a crescendo during the reign of Catherine the Great. Indeed, we ind that among the oficer class in the Russian navy during the eighteenth century there were admirals of all classes, as well as ships’ captains, lieutenants and numerous other oficers and men.3 Impressive as the sheer numbers of Scottish admirals in Russian service is, there is seldom an opportunity to see them in the context of wider maritime migration. And this is crucial, for without such an overview, we could ind ourselves constructing one of those uncritical histories which might over-celebrate the importance of these men and the relevance of their migration to Russia. That is not to say that they are not to be celebrated, or indeed that they were not important. It simply reiterates the obvious historical point which requires us to take a step back and view our subject matter in a different way.

  • Civilian Control and the Military in Policymaking
    The Scholar EROSION BY DEFERENCE: CIVILIAN CONTROL AND THE MILITARY IN POLICYMAKING Polina Beliakova 55 Erosion by Deference: Civilian Control and the Military in Policymaking Delegating policymaking functions to members of the military profession can undermine civilian control in democracies, and yet democratic leaders continue to do just this. So why do leaders of democratic states delegate policymaking responsibilities to the military? Existing research does not provide a comprehensive answer to this question. To shed light on this understudied phenomenon, I advance a new concept of erosion of civilian control by deference. Using the Trump presidency as a case study, and considering additional evidence from the Clinton and Bush (43) administrations, I investigate three drivers of deference — boosting approval, avoiding responsibility, and cajoling the military. Relying on qualitative and quantitative analysis, I also show how deference to the military eroded civilian control under the Trump administration. “[I]f you want to get into a debate with a four- Specifically, the increased reliance on the military star Marine general, I think that that’s something in policymaking became a salient feature of U.S. highly inappropriate.” civil-military relations during the Trump admin- — Sarah Sanders, White House Press Secretary1 istration and is likely to have lasting consequenc- es.

On March 7, 2014, a self-directed study was emailed to Vice Admiral Bill Moran, the U.S. Navy’s Chief of Naval Personnel. Titled “Keep a Weather Eye on the Horizon: A Navy Officer Retention Study”, the paper provided Vice Admiral Moran with a canary in the coal mine, describing a looming retention downturn using historical data and, perhaps most importantly, timely and relevant information based on primary source interviews with hundreds of !U.S. Navy Sailors. Within days, the paper leaked from the Navy’s Personnel Command and made its way throughout the Navy. The message resonated with Sailors at the deck plates — officer and enlisted alike — and caught the attention of senior leaders throughout the U.S. Government. To their immense credit, Vice Admiral Moran and other senior Navy leaders have responded to decreasing retention indicators with personnel changes designed to improve morale and a Sailor’s ‘quality of service’.

  • Vice Admiral Guy Robinson OBE Chief of Staff Guy Robinson Joined the Royal Navy in 1986 As a Warfare Officer
    Allied Command Transformation Office of the Chief of Staff Norfolk, Virginia | USA Vice Admiral Guy Robinson OBE Chief of Staff Guy Robinson joined the Royal Navy in 1986 as a warfare officer. His seagoing career has been primarily spent in frigates and destroyers, serving as a bridge watchkeeping officer, navigator and then Principal Warfare Officer. He has been fortunate to command three warships: the patrol vessel HMS GUERNSEY, the Type 42 Destroyer HMS EDINBURGH and the Type 45 Destroyer HMS DARING. In 2003, he commanded EDINBURGH during the combat phase of the 2nd Gulf War and was subsequently awarded a Mention-in-Despatches. In 2008 he operated from the Iraqi Khawr al Amaya offshore oil terminal as Commander Task Group 158.1, running operations in the Northern Arabian Gulf. In 2012, he took DARING on the first operational deployment of a Type 45 to the Middle East. From 2015 through 2016 he was the Deputy Commander of United Kingdom Maritime Forces, the Royal Navy’s high readiness battle staff. During that assignment he assumed duties as Commander of Combined Task Force 150, the counter-terrorism task force operating in the Indian Ocean. In his most recent command assignment (2017-21) he was Deputy Commander at Naval Striking and Support Forces NATO (STRIKFORNATO) based at Oeiras, Portugal; a deployable Joint battle staff whose primary role is the integration of high-end U.S. maritime capabilities into NATO operations. During assignments ashore, Vice Admiral Robinson has served in the UK’s Ministry of Defence (MoD), working as the financial programmer in the above water equipment capability area.

  • POSC 308/408: the American Presidency Our Topic
    POSC 308/408: The American Presidency Spring 2020 Syllabus as of January 3, 2020 Professor Joseph White Monday/Wednesday 3:20 – 4:35 Thwing 301 Office Hours 10:00 – 11:30 Mon/Wed Mather House 113 [email protected] Our Topic This course begins with three puzzles. The first two should have been major themes in any other year. One is the puzzle of presidents and the presidency. At any time there is only one president, and for some the presidency means the individuals who hold the office. So we speak of the Bush 431 Presidency, or the Obama Presidency, or Reagan Presidency. Yet the presidency is also a bundle of powers and responsibilities, within a system of “separated institutions sharing powers.” These powers and responsibilities are not simply exercised by an individual called the president, but by a set of organizations, sometimes called the “presidential branch” of government. It includes bureaucracies, such as the Office of Management and Budget and the National Security Council, that work directly for the president to help him or her manage relationships with Congress, the federal agencies, the public, and other forces that influence what government does. Hence we cannot understand the presidency without thinking about the set of powers, the organizations, and the person – but those are also quite different topics. The second puzzle involves what the presidency (whatever that means) can do and is expected to do: the puzzle of presidential power. Many observers argue there is a mismatch between the role that both the public and presidents appear to expect presidents to play in American government, and the quite limited powers that were established by the constitutional design.
