The contributions made in this volume point to the ongoing challenge of understanding the substance and direction of the relationship between NATO and four Asia-Pacific partners (Australia, Japan, New Zealand, South Korea).
This research brief describes the methodological review of sources of potential bias in the 2014 RAND Military Workplace Study, an independent assessment of the rates of sexual assault and sexual harassment in the U.S. military,
In 2009, the RAND Corporation launched the Deployment Life Study, a longitudinal study of military families across a deployment cycle. This culminating report reviews the study design and data collection procedures, then presents results from analyses of the data collected from some 2,700 military families, focusing on marital relationships, family environment, psychological and behavioral health, child well-being, and military integration.
This report examines the 14-year experience of U.S. special operations forces in the Philippines from 2001 through 2014 and the activities and effects of special operations capabilities employed to address terrorist threats in Operation Enduring Freedom — Philippines through training and equipping Philippine security forces, providing operational advice and assistance, and conducting civil–military and information operations.
This report analyzes Taiwan's options for allocating resources for air defense, describes the essential air defense problem that China poses, characterizes the current capabilities and level of funding that Taiwan invests in air defense, and develops several alternative investment strategies. The authors then test those investment strategies in three vignettes that span the range of conflict, from limited coercion to a full invasion.
RAND researchers examine the historical record of terrorism in the United States and Europe between 1970 and the end of 2013 to determine whether a significant terrorist attack somehow inspires other terrorist attacks and whether analysis of historical attacks suggests that increases in terrorism can be anticipated in the shadow of a large attack.
This study identifies the current universe of federal employment programs and resources available to reserve component members, assesses the gaps and overlaps in those programs and resources, and develops recommendations for how the U.S. Department of Defense and the federal government as a whole can improve efforts to provide job placement assistance and related employment services to reserve component members.
RAND researchers reviewed previous research, conducted informational discussions with employment program managers, and identified ways to improve efforts to provide federal job placement and related employment services for reserve component members.
RAND identified and reviewed international contestability practices on behalf of the Australian Department of Defence (ADoD), which is restructuring its military capability acquisition process. A key component of this restructuring is the establishment of an internal contestability capability to assess ADoD's requirements, acquisition, and budget decisions internally before they are passed to other elements in the government.
The Department of Defense Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Office asked the RAND Corporation to independently assess rates of sexual assault, sexual harassment, and gender discrimination in the military. This volume presents the results of methodological investigations into sources of potential bias in estimates produced from the 2014 RAND Military Workplace Study for active- and reserve-component members in the U.S. military.
The vocabulary of hybrid warfare and hybrid threat has been adopted fairly widely, including formal use in NATO discussions and across the U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps, and U.S. Special Operations Command.
This systematic review aims to estimate the effects of acupuncture for adults with substance use disorders (SUDs).
Testimony presented before the Senate Armed Services Subcommittee on Emerging Threats and Capabilities on March 9, 2016.
Develops several portfolios of possible deals, bargains, or arrangements between the U.S. and China that can produce "win-win" outcomes that both sides would view as preferable to present circumstances.
Describes the results of an analysis of 150 completed and foiled terrorist plots against the United States from 1995 to 2012 to better understand the true nature of the terrorist threat faced by the United States.
