Abstract

The nature of warfare, its causes and results have always been one of the main interest areas of the international relations. This study argues that in the post-September 11 era a fundamental shift in the doctrine, organization, training and way of fighting of modern armies has taken place due to the change in the nature of warfare. It emphasizes that modern militaries of the world have, dramatically, been reviewing their traditional approaches to the definition and conduct of warfare to meet effectively the asymmetric and unconventional threats that have loomed in the contemporary security environment. The general aim of this study, which refers to this new way warfare as “fourth generation warfare”, is to lay out the problems of modern militaries as parallel to the changing threat perceptions as well as attempting to indicate the necessary structural reforms they should fulfill.

BİR ÖNCEKİ SAVAŞ İÇİN HAZIRLANMAK: DEĞİŞEN KÜRESEL GÜVENLİK ORTAMININ GELENEKSEL SAVAŞ OLGUSUNA ETKİSİ

Abstract

Savaşların nedenleri, sonuçları, özellikle savaşın doğası her zaman uluslararası ilişkilerin temel ilgi alanlarından biri olmuştur. Bu çalışmanın temel savı; özellikle 11 Eylül saldırıları sonrasında hızlı bir değişime sahne olan modern küresel güvenlik ortamında savaşın tanımı, doğası, orduların silahlanması, teşkilatlanması ve eğitiminde köklü değişiklikleri gerektiren yeni bir sürece girildiğidir. Çalışma; giderek karmaşıklaşan ve geleneksel tanımları dışına taşan yeni küresel güvenlik ortamında beliren çoğu “asimetrik” ve “konvansiyonel olmayan” tehdide karşı, modern dünya ordularının geleneksel savaş tanımını ve savaşın doğası konusundaki geleneksel yaklaşımları sorgulamakta olduklarını vurgulamaktadır. Bu yeni savaş şeklini “dördüncü nesil savaş” olarak tanımlayan bu çalışmanın temel amacı değişen tehdit algılamalarına paralel olarak modern dünya ordularının karşılaştıkları sorunları ortaya koymak ve yapılması gereken yapısal reformların ana çerçevesini çizmektir.
