Book excerpt: "This study asserts traditionally designed United States crisis response forces (CRF) are often ad hoc in nature and sorely lack the contextual understanding of the security environment to best integrate interagency effects. The stakes in future competition are too high for the improvisational methods of the past. The 2021 Interim National Security Strategy envisions retooled force structure and integrated interagency capabilities better organized to respond to a crisis of international peace that relies on diplomacy followed by a military responsive to the emerging security environment. The United States must adapt joint interagency force design to build a deliberate strategy for a whole-of-government approach. This study asks the question: Under what conditions do United States joint interagency task forces (JIATF) achieve desired policy objectives? Using a deductive method, the two case studies, OPERATION UPHOLD DEMOCRACY and OPERATION UNIFIED RESPONSE, provide qualitative data for comparison of three independent variables, environmental assessment, interagency integration, and conflict management, with a dependent variable of desired policy outcomes. The research uses both primary and secondary sources to understand the JIATF before, during, and after crises to correlate observations into a pattern used to test a hypothesis for which conditions enable policy objectives. The findings and implications suggest the need to reform the United States national security apparatus with a strategy for joint interagency force design."--Abstract.
