Despite a shared vision, transformation has been primarily a US-led process centered on the exploitation of new information technologies in combination with new concepts for \"networked organizations\" and \"effects-based operations.\" Simply put, European states have been unable to match the level of US investment in new military technologies, leading to the identification of a growing \"transformation gap\" between the US and the European allies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book assesses the extent and trajectory of military transformation across a range of European NATO member states, setting their transformation progress against that of the US, and examining the complex mix of factors driving military transformation in each country. It reveals not only the nature and extent of the \u003ci\u003etransatlantic\u003c\/i\u003e gap, but also identifies an enormous variation in the extent and pace of transformation among the European allies, suggesting both technological and operational gaps \u003ci\u003ewithin\u003c\/i\u003e Europe. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Theo Farrell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 080476378X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804763783\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford Security Studies\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/07\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2011 pg. 353","brand":"Theo Farrell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47419112587519,"sku":"9780804763783","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e87ec482-8449-43bb-9111-26c3a7dbf22f.jpg?v=1761509517","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-transformation-gap-theo-farrell-9780804763783","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
