This book was released on 2014-06-23 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The waterways and ports such as Bab el-Mandab and the port of Aden are areas of continuing economic, strategic and grand strategic interest to the international community; they are all of parallel geostrategic importance. Therefore, there are compelling reasons for concrete actions to step up security in the strategic waterways and ports at a time when terrorists are looking for soft targets. The fact is that the security of the Red Sea, Bab el-Mandab Straits, Gulf of Aden, and Arabian Sea, are among the world’s busiest waterways. Yemen’s cooperation with the international community is part of an ambitious effort to improve security worldwide and this cooperation will develop further. Given the strong and multilateral interest of the international community in the Red Sea, Bab el-Mandeb Straits, the Gulf of Aden and Arabian Sea, the littoral states must do their best to provide sufficient security against piracy in order to achieve stability in the region and worldwide. The international community and regional countries should agree on means that can be taken by each respective state individually and collectively. Maritime safety is considered an essential element of economic security for Arab countries and the rest of the world, and therefore the Arab world should support and back international and regional joint efforts. Such regional endeavors to protect maritime shipping lanes from any threat including piracy, in addition to capacity building of maritime security workers, all represent the core of bilateral and multilateral partnership among concerned maritime organizations and Arab states. Because of this it is important for Arab states to expand their diplomatic relations regionally and internationally on the basis of enhancing their security capabilities, including access to necessary training, joint naval maneuvers, and keep up with international maritime developments.
Book Synopsis Maritime Security Partnerships by : National Research Council
Download or read book Maritime Security Partnerships written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2008-12-16 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To offer security in the maritime domain, governments around the world need the capabilities to directly confront common threats like piracy, drug-trafficking, and illegal immigration. No single navy or nation can do this alone. Recognizing this new international security landscape, the former Chief of Naval Operations called for a collaborative international approach to maritime security, initially branded the "1,000-ship Navy." This concept envisions U.S. naval forces partnering with multinational, federal, state, local and private sector entities to ensure freedom of navigation, the flow of commerce, and the protection of ocean resources. This new book from the National Research Council examines the technical and operational implications of the "1,000-ship Navy," as they apply to four levels of cooperative efforts: U.S. Navy, Coast Guard, and merchant shipping only; U.S. naval and maritime assets with others in treaty alliances or analogous arrangements; U.S. naval and maritime assets with ad hoc coalitions; and U.S. naval and maritime assets with others than above who may now be friendly but could potentially be hostile, for special purposes such as deterrence of piracy or other criminal activity.
Book Synopsis The Restoration of Legitimacy in Yemen and Its Role in Strengthening Arab National Security by : Prof. Jamal Sanad Al-Suwaidi
Download or read book The Restoration of Legitimacy in Yemen and Its Role in Strengthening Arab National Security written by Prof. Jamal Sanad Al-Suwaidi and published by ZAWYAT ALMAARFEH. This book was released on with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arab military intervention in Yemen restored trust in the Arab national security system with its Gulf leadership and also revealed the level of Arab world awareness in terms of addressing regional and international shifts independently. Therefore, the effect of this step – regaining lost balance and taking the initiative after years of passivity and defensiveness – goes beyond Yemen to affect the entire region. The lecture concluded that the Saudi-led Arab military intervention to restore legitimacy in Yemen is indeed a historic opportunity—an opportunity that must be harnessed in a way that builds an Arab military force capable of defending Arab security in the face of imminent threats. This is especially important considering the increasing conflicts and competition between several regional and international powers in the Arab world as well as the shifts in Middle East foreign policies of certain major powers, such as the United States of America. These changes highlight the fact that the region needs to rely on itself to defend its interests. The Iran nuclear deal – signed by Iran and major powers in July 2015 – has created a new reality in the region. This is especially the case with regard to Tehran’s relations with international powers, particularly the United States of America. Iran’s position within the policies toward the region and its interests is something that the Arabs must deal with from a position of both strength and initiative.

Book Synopsis The Civic Orientations of Arab Publics: by : Mark Tessler
Download or read book The Civic Orientations of Arab Publics: written by Mark Tessler and published by Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research. This book was released on 2014-06-23 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper uses public opinion data collected as part of the Arab Barometer Survey Project to report on the political and social conceptions and preferences held by ordinary citizens in the Arab world. The findings provide a broad and generally representative overview of the civic orientations held by ordinary men and women in the Arab world. The paper covers a wide range of issues that are highly relevant to the Arab world at the present time, and frequently offers brief assessments of the reasons and/or implications associated with particular findings; in this way it encourages further reflection and future research on the part of others. Finally it calls attention to the availability of the unique resource that Arab Barometer data represent. Both through the Barometer’s website and through the Inter-University Consortium for Political and Social Research at the University of Michigan, interested parties may acquire the AB data in SPSS format. Plans for the fourth wave of AB surveys are in the planning stage. Depending on local conditions and the availability of adequate funding, the fourth wave will continue to expand the number and geographic scope of the countries that are surveyed. Among the priorities for this wave, for which some funding has already been obtained, will be the inclusion of members of the Gulf Cooperation Council.

Book Synopsis Maritime Security Risks, Vulnerabilities and Cooperation by : Lee Cordner
Download or read book Maritime Security Risks, Vulnerabilities and Cooperation written by Lee Cordner and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-03 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uniquely employs risk and vulnerability approaches to advocate international policy options for enhancing maritime security cooperation in the Indian Ocean region. Understanding shared risks and common vulnerabilities that impact the achievement of mutual objectives in the oceanic domain present practical bases for progressing collective action. The Indian Ocean sea lanes are the world’s most important thoroughfares for energy resources (oil, gas and coal) and other cargoes. Secure maritime trade routes are vital to global, regional and national economies. Further, security challenges resulting from marine environmental degradation impacted by climate change are rising. Regional and extra-regional actors need to work more closely together to impose law and order at sea, control regional conflicts, respond to humanitarian crises and natural disasters, and conserve the marine environment. This book provides an invaluable resource for political leaders, policy advisers, academic researchers, military professionals, and students of international security and strategic studies.
Download or read book Making Strategy written by Dennis M. Drew and published by . This book was released on 2002-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National secuirty strategy is a vast subject involving a daunting array of interrelated subelements woven in intricate, sometimes vague, and ever-changing patterns. Its processes are often irregular and confusing and are always based on difficult decisions laden with serious risks. In short, it is a subject understood by few and confusing to most. It is, at the same time, a subject of overwhelming importance to the fate of the United States and civilization itself. Col. Dennis M. Drew and Dr. Donald M. Snow have done a considerable service by drawing together many of the diverse threads of national security strategy into a coherent whole. They consider political and military strategy elements as part of a larger decisionmaking process influenced by economic, technological, cultural, and historical factors. I know of no other recent volume that addresses the entire national security milieu in such a logical manner and yet also manages to address current concerns so thoroughly. It is equally remarkable that they have addressed so many contentious problems in such an evenhanded manner. Although the title suggests that this is an introductory volume - and it is - I am convinced that experienced practitioners in the field of national security strategy would benefit greatly from a close examination of this excellent book.

Book Synopsis Routledge Handbook of Naval Strategy and Security by : Joachim Krause
Download or read book Routledge Handbook of Naval Strategy and Security written by Joachim Krause and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-17 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new handbook provides a comprehensive overview of the issues facing naval strategy and security in the twenty-first century. Featuring contributions from some of the world’s premier researchers and practitioners in the field of naval strategy and security, this handbook covers naval security issues in diverse regions of the world, from the Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean to the Arctic and the piracy-prone waters off East Africa’s coast. It outlines major policy challenges arising from competing claims, transnational organized crime and maritime terrorism, and details national and alliance reactions to these problems. While this volume provides detailed analyses on operational, judicial, and legislative consequences that contemporary maritime security threats pose, it also places a specific emphasis on naval strategy. With a public very much focused on the softer constabulary roles naval forces play (such as humanitarian assistance, disaster relief, naval diplomacy, maintenance of good order at sea), the overarching hard-power role of navies has been pushed into the background. In fact, navies and seapower have been notably absent from many recent academic discussions and deliberations of maritime security. This handbook provides a much-desired addition to the literature for researchers and analysts in the social sciences on the relationship between security policy and military means on, under, and from the sea. It comprehensively explains the state of naval security in this maritime century and the role of naval forces in it. This book will be of much interest to students of naval security and naval strategy, security studies and IR, as well as practitioners in the field.

Download or read book Regions and Powers written by Barry Buzan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-12-04 with total page 598 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book develops the idea that since decolonisation, regional patterns of security have become more prominent in international politics. The authors combine an operational theory of regional security with an empirical application across the whole of the international system. Individual chapters cover Africa, the Balkans, CIS Europe, East Asia, EU Europe, the Middle East, North America, South America, and South Asia. The main focus is on the post-Cold War period, but the history of each regional security complex is traced back to its beginnings. By relating the regional dynamics of security to current debates about the global power structure, the authors unfold a distinctive interpretation of post-Cold War international security, avoiding both the extreme oversimplifications of the unipolar view, and the extreme deterritorialisations of many globalist visions of a new world disorder. Their framework brings out the radical diversity of security dynamics in different parts of the world.
