Welcome to the anomie and insurgency research group at NPS. We are interested in anomie as a micro-level structural factor, in the context of a macro-level analysis, in a learning system. We seek to uncover micro-level data to complete the macro-level picture, to provide better visualization of patterns for decision-makers, and to provide our practitioner community opportunities for vicarious learning in wargaming. These then create fuel for model development, based upon data and wargaming information. In doing so, we will draw upon research innovations in anomie, advances in pattern recognition, modeling, and the Naval Postgraduate School’s excellent access to data and expertise.
Complex Operations Case Study Workshop
Scholars and practitioners interested and engaged in complex operations – stability operations, counterinsurgency and irregular warfare – are invited to submit short proposals to participate in the complex operations case study project. Those selected will be invited to contribute a case study for publication in the series, and to participate in a workshop on case teaching and writing in Washington, DC September 27-30, 2009. The workshop requires little advanced preparation, as the focus is on building skills for teaching and writing, including the use of case method in the classroom.
