Update on Network-Centric Combat
The ever-brilliant Jim Moore posts this about Network-Centric Warfare referring to the NY Times article of the 13th. I had posted a link to a Special Forces essay on this topic this winter but, Moore raises a point = we should be working harder on Network-Centeric Peacemaking.
I need to do some research, but what forms would that take? Would it be similiar to the anti-globablization networks, or would it be a more low-intensity networking that would raise the social/political cost of warfighting?
Would our increased familiarity with each other be enough to deter future adverturing?
Dunno. Great post though. Go read.
UPDATE: Network-Centric Advocacy also responds to the NYT Article, but rather questions the effects of creating situational awareness for GOTV workers and other volunteers and staffers of campaigns.
I would think that is always a good thing - having the right info in the field IS a big deal but making sure to guard against info overload is a huge problem for us to work on.
