Workshop Opening

Leonard Ferrari, Provost NPS

Karen Guttieri, NPS

Globalization and Maritime Security: US Maritime Strategy focuses on building relationship and preventing wars. What is the future for Maritime Security in the context of globalization? What trends are most significant? What is the new kind of work emerging with political, economic and social developments?  What are the critical relationships with partner countries to ensure global and maritime security?

Straits of Malacca & Singapore:  Port Security I

The Port Security project is to assess advanced technology for port security by assessing the effectiveness of advanced sensors and defensive technology, integrated with existing assets to create higher levels of security. Methodologies will be developed and analyses performed for assessing port security threat levels, risk assessments, organizational roles, and investment strategies for improving port security.

Leadership in Complex Environments

Leadership Development for Complex Environments is a significant new challenge in light of changing constructs of security and the operational environments in which military and civilian actors work. How can we best prepare future leaders to operate in complex dynamic environments?

Straits of Malacca & Singapore:  Port Security II

Security for the Straits of Malacca and Singapore project will assess the effectiveness of a system of systems, which include multi-nationalland-based, surface, underwater, airborne, and space-based platforms, sensors, C4I centers, weather centers, shipping companies, and international and private maritime information organizations.

Trends, Shocks, and Prevention

The Trends Shocks and Prevention category showcases leading research on shocks and trends, some of the work we've been doing on metrics for stability, and work by the Swiss and the US State Department prevention unit. What are the major systems involved in our priorities for research with respect to trends and shocks that will shape the security agenda? What are the implications for a prevention agenda?

Chair:

Lin Wells, NDU

 

Presenters:

6. Dan Plesch, “New Challenges, Forgotten Wisdoms: lessons from America’s creation of the United Nations to beat Hitler and secure the peace”

Case Studies on Prevention & Partnership
The US Department of State is among those agencies keenly interested in conflict prevention. Partnerships are vital to this goal. Programs designed to build resilience to multifaceted security challenges emphasize building partner capacity. US AFRICOM represents a new organizational combatant command structure in order to better address the challenges of prevention. The National Office for Global Maritime Situational Awareness is another innovative civil-military structure to improve maritime domain awareness.

Globalization Track

Global Maritime Partnership

Global Maritime Partnerships represent a new approach to maritime security. Focus on "traditional" conventional threats, previously the primary province of individual nation state responses, is giving way to greater attention to non-traditional threats better handled by ad hoc coalitions and partnership relationships.

6. Alex Bordetsky & Arden Dougan, “Networking and Collaboration on Maritime-sourced Nuclear Threats”
7. Charles Kimzey, “PACOM & Maritime Partnerships”

Globalization systems

The Globalization Systems project is about mapping systems such as food security or energy so that we’re not simply reacting to the consequences of globalization but identifying the causal linkages. In an informal survey, a lot of interest was expressed around the topics of climate change effects, poverty and governance issues.
