Caraccilo clarifies the most important, and often the most constraining, element of a nation's power—its resources. He posits that termination strategy and conflict resolution are interdependent and need to be included in conflict plans from the outset. Caraccilo's book fills a void in current strategy for the development of long-term plans that bring conflicts to timely and acceptable conclusions, providing a methodology that allows interagency requirements and resources for war termination to be defined, allocated, and employed effectively.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing Plc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49601680245080,"sku":"9780313391491","price":58.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780313391491_71311469-b66a-4195-8bc1-6911cdc5ff94.jpg?v=1743759046","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/beyond-guns-and-steel-a-war-termination-strategy","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
